Jean-Michel Moulun, 54, a former boxer from the North, murdered Evelyne, a 77-year-old retired schoolteacher, on October 13, 2021, in his villa in Agde. After denying the facts for three years, the accused finally admitted them on Tuesday afternoon.
200% Deposit Bonus up to €3,000 180% First Deposit Bonus up to $20,000After an hour of deliberation, the Hérault Assize Court sentenced Jean-Michel Moulun, a 54-year-old former boxer, to life imprisonment this Wednesday morning for having beheaded Evelyne, a retired schoolteacher, in her villa in Agde on October 13, 2021, a crime that the accused had finally admitted to on the second day of his trial, after denying it for three years.
The attorney general had requested this sentence the day before: “It is a very harsh sentence, I recognize that, but it is not an ordinary crime” explained Georges Gutierrez.
A call for clemency launched by his lawyers
In defense, his lawyers Me Anthony Caniez and the president of the bar Josy-Jean Bousquet had called on the court and the jurors to show a certain clemency and to take into account his confessions at the hearing. “II will ask you to open the door, to leave some hope, that he does not end his life in detention” stressed Me Caniez, recalling that the psychiatrists excluded any risk of recidivism.
This man who suffered a whole series of failures, while he had ambitions of sporting success in boxing and in politics seems to have focused all his resentment against his victim, for whom he had worked for several years as a gardener, while his wife was a home help. A year before the events, the pensioner had fired them, after noticing thefts of jewelry and money in the villa.
“I think that if we still had the death penalty, the attorney general would have requested it and that, paradoxically, he would have died decapitated” as his victim noted Mr. Bousquet. “He still has work to do on this earth, he must atone for the crime he committed.”
