already convicted in the past for sexual assault, a father tried for attempted rape of a minor
A 44-year-old father has been on trial in Toulouse since Monday, October 31, 2022 for attempted rape. He has already been convicted of sexual assault on a minor and for acts of incest on his daughter.
It is a heavy hearing which opened this Monday, October 31, 2022 at the Departmental Criminal Court of Haute-Garonne. A 44-year-old man is on trial for attempted rape of a minor under the age of 16. The facts date back to 2019: this father would have approached his victim, would have made advances to him before subjecting him to touching in the middle of the street in Tournefeuille.
The minutes began around 9 a.m. on Monday, October 31, 2022. The Court decided to proceed behind closed doors, following a request from the victim’s lawyer. The lawyers of the two parties did not wish to speak on this first day of the hearing.
The criminal record of the accused, a former supervisor in a high school in Haute-Garonne, bears several mentions for acts of sexual assault and incest. He has already been sentenced to two years in prison, including six months, by the correctional court of Cahors (Lot) for sexual assault on a minor. In another proceeding, subject to an appeal in cassation, the man was found guilty of incest on his daughter between 2015 and 2019. He was sentenced in January 2022 to twenty-five months in prison by the Toulouse Court of Appeal.
