Christian Quesada was released after two years in prison

In April 2020, during a closed-door trial, the Bourg-en-Bresse criminal court sentenced Christian Quesada to three years in prison with continued detention and five years of socio-judicial monitoring, with three years of imprisonment in the event of no respect. The former champion of the television show The 12 strokes of noon, on TF1, was found guilty of corruption of minors on four young girls between 2017 and 2019 as well as of possession and dissemination of child pornography images.

According to information published this Thursday, March 25, 2021 in The Progress, Christian Quesada is said to have been released from prison after two years of detention in the isolation unit of Bourg-en-Bresse prison. It was through the remission of his sentence that he would have served his sentence, which would therefore have allowed him to leave. After exemplary conduct, the former television star “would have benefited from an exceptional sentence credit”, still according to the newspaper Progress. Christophe Rode, the prosecutor of the Republic of Bourg-en-Bresse, has indeed confirmed: “Exceptional sentence credits can in fact be granted to inmates according to the care or reintegration procedures undertaken in prison.”

Now 56 years old, Christian Quesada has left the department of Ain. According to witnesses interviewed by Progress, he would have totally changed his appearance to regain anonymity. Long hair, beard … His fellow prisoners nicknamed him “Robinson Crusoe.”
