Prosecutors Seek 22-Year Term in Blois Attempted Feminicide Trial

The case spotlights police failings over a refused complaint hours before the attack.

Overview

  • Avocate générale Stéphanie Clément-Bornet requested 22 years in prison with a two‑thirds safety period, plus 10 years of post‑sentence supervision, treatment orders and a no‑contact ban.
  • Accused ex‑partner Marvin Joli, 30, acknowledged delivering two to three kicks to Chloé P.’s head but denied any intent to kill, saying he had “vrillé” during the assault.
  • The court heard that Chloé suffered irreversible neurological injuries, lost her right eye and spent two months in a coma after being found left for dead in her building in December 2022.
  • The defendant’s criminal record includes about fourteen entries, including prior convictions for violence, which the prosecution cited to argue his dangerousness.
  • The police major who redirected Chloé when she tried to file a complaint testified as a witness, admitted an error and has been forcibly retired; the verdict was expected Friday evening.
