Bernard Denis, mayor of a small town in the Channel was found with his feet and hands nailed. But the town councilor will make an astonishing revelation.
This Wednesday, November 23, 2022, Bernard Denis, the mayor of Saint-Côme-du-Mont, in the Manche department, showed up with a masked face and a bandage in his hand. And for good reason, he appears in the context of an appearance for prior recognition of guilt (CRPC), better known as a guilty plea. Since December 2021, the city councilor has been living a real nightmare. While he showed his support for Emmanuel Macron, he was found on November 9, in a field by a farmer. The city’s mayor had his hands and feet nailed down.
If he is a victim, the man still admitted during his hearing to have lied to the investigators in May 2022. Indeed, he had reported shooting at one of his vans. Accusing his detractors, he reconsidered his version of the facts and was therefore tried for denunciation of an imaginary crime. He will have to appear in court on January 17, this time before the criminal court. However, his aggression of November was incredibly violent. “Bernard Denis was found around 12:30 p.m. in a field near the village hall, injured in the face and with nails driven into the tops of his hands and into each of his heels. according to Michaël Giraudet, public prosecutor. He “was transported to the Saint Lô hospital center to receive the necessary care” and undergo “forensic examinations” always according to the prosecution.
The mayor wanted to end his life
Faced with this aggression, Bernard Denis wanted suicide.“It is true that Bernard Denis tried to commit suicide at home on Saturday, November 12 in the morning by drug ingestion“, said the public prosecutor of Coutances, Michaël Giraudet. “He has since been hospitalized in a specialized environment. His days are not in danger”, added the magistrate.
