New twist in the Pierre Palmade case: an examining magistrate must audition one of the two individuals taken into custody in connection with an accusation of child pornography against the comedian.
The future grows darker day by day Pierre Palmade. This Friday, February 24, 2023, the 54-year-old comedian was unable to go to the investigating chamber of the Paris Court of Appeal where the terms of his house arrest were discussed. His detention on remand had been requested after the serious car accident in Seine-et-Marne which he caused two weeks ago while under the influence of cocaine, seriously injuring three people: a man, his 6-year-old son years old and her sister-in-law just over 6 months pregnant who lost her baby. The judge of freedoms and detention had decided to place the actor under electronic surveillance in the addiction service of the Paul Brousse hospital in Villejuif. The Pierre Palmade case was then complicated with new accusations against him.
After a report made to the police, the justice opened a preliminary investigation last weekend for Possession of child pornography images. An accusation made by a man who passed on to the police images on which we would see Pierre Palmade watching these videos incriminating. A second individual was taken into custody last Thursday as part of this new investigation targeting the comedian. If the first witness has been released, the second must be presented this Saturday to an examining magistrate. The hearing could lead to his indictment. “The investigations will therefore continue within the framework ofopen judicial information of heads of detention, distribution of child pornography files and regular consultation of child pornography sites“, announce our colleagues from BFMTV.
Pierre Palmade: “There are deaths? Am I going to die?”
If he did not manage to extract himself from the wreckage of his car in the minutes which followed the accident, his two passengers fled before the arrival of the police on the scene. One of them, a certain Sambou, would go to the police station a few days later. “Not being a doctor“, this one estimated not to have “nothing more to do there“, he argues in the columns of Marianne. The “traveling companion” of Pierre Palmade also remembers the comedian’s first wordsworried about the passages of the vehicle he had hit. “Are there any deaths? Injuried people ? I will die ?“, he would have asked. Pending knowing if he will stay at Paul Brousse or if justice will send him behind bars, the former husband of Véronique Sanson has not yet made any official statement on his car accident.
