A 38-year-old man is accused for the second time of violence against his spouse. He was presented in immediate appearance before the local court of Saint-Martin on Wednesday. Two days earlier, under the influence of alcohol, he punched his partner in the back and pushed her against the wall. When the gendarmes arrived, she had bruises on her arms.
The individual is arrested, placed in a drunk tank and then in police custody. He recognizes the facts and justifies his actions by the effects of alcohol. The victim is also heard by the investigators. She explains that her daughter's father is a "nice man", that together they have a "normal relationship" except when he has been drinking. The prosecution is worried about the girl in front of whom the scenes of violence take place and indicates that it will seize the social services in order to assess the family situation and the risk incurred by the little girl. Against the defendant, he showed intransigence. If the deputy prosecutor hears that he is following a drug treatment and wants to follow a cure, she notes the ineffectiveness of the care and the inability of the individual to take charge of himself. She requires six months in prison, three of which are accompanied by a probationary sentence for two years including the obligation of care, or even a ban on the territory of Saint-Martin for two years in order to give her time to be treated in mainland France. She also asks for a warrant of deposit. After deliberating, the court condemns the defendant to an even heavier sentence: one year in prison, six months of which is accompanied by a probationary suspension for two years including the obligation of care and the prohibition to possess a weapon for five years. . He also pronounces a warrant of deposit. This means that YD was transferred to prison in Guadeloupe a few hours later. (soualigapost.com)
