A few years ago, RR stabbed AR and was tried in the juvenile court. This time, on February 22 in front of the criminal court of Saint-Martin, the roles are reversed and RR is the victim. On January 21, AR stabbed him in the chest, causing five days of ITT.
According to the testimony of the friend of the accused, on January 21, he and AR were repairing a scooter outside, in a Concordia residence when RR came to them. Neither of the two protagonists having forgotten their previous argument, the tone rises very quickly. RR is said to have grabbed AR's friend from the neck and AR then threw him two times with a screwdriver in the chest. Through his lawyer, AR explains that he was afraid because he was still traumatized by the stab wounds he had taken a few years earlier. He claims that RR had a stabbing weapon, although no one has seen one. At almost nineteen, AR already has three convictions for violence. "AR must be condemned for violence with a weapon" advance the vice-prosecutor who considers the unjustified screwdriver strokes. No one having seen the victim carry a weapon at the time of the events, AR cannot invoke self-defense. After deliberation, the Criminal Court of Saint-Martin found AR guilty and sentenced him to four months in prison and to the ban on carrying a weapon subject to authorization. He receives the civil action from the victim and orders AR to pay him 1500 euros.
