He is said to have acted in a state of diminished responsibility due to an \u2018acute delusional episode\u2019 in the context of early schizophrenia and cannabis use. He is therefore considered mentally unfit to stand trial and will not be tried by a criminal court. He will escape prison but remain in compulsory hospitalisation for an indefinite period. Since the murder, Mohammed L. has been imprisoned and then transferred to a psychiatric hospital. He was then taken to a unit for less dangerous individuals, according to\u00a0Le Figaro. Two psychiatric experts will have to approve his possible release\u2014a moment that Christelle Gervaise [the victim\u2019s wife] dreads more than anything, because she knows that he could be out in a very short time and potentially re-offend. She will\u00a0not be informed\u00a0of his potential release and could meet the man in the street one day or another.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nexusnewsfeed.com\/article\/jon-rappoport\/the-murder-that-should-be-enraging-all-of-france-and-putting-millions-of-people-on-the-street-in-protest-but-silence\/\">https:\/\/nexusnewsfeed.com\/article\/jon-rappoport\/the-murder-that-should-be-enraging-all-of-france-and-putting-millions-of-people-on-the-street-in-protest-but-silence\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>(Tom: I read a viewpoint that there should be no defense of &#8216;temporary insanity&#8217; against charges as all intent to harm or destroy is insanity.
