Overview
- The physics teacher, formally under investigation in his wife's presumed murder, appeared on November 6 before the Bayonne correctional court for aggravated violence against a former colleague.
- The complainant says Juret briefly placed his hands on her throat in April 2024 after a lab-preparation dispute, leading to a short work incapacity noted in the case file.
- At the complainant’s request, the judge granted a closed hearing given her discretion and the broader context, and the defendant pleaded not guilty.
- Defense lawyers denounced the proceedings as fabricated and emphasized the late complaint filed on April 29, 2025, arguing the case is being used to bolster the criminal inquiry.
- The prosecutor requested a four-month suspended sentence, with the court set to deliver its ruling on November 20, while Juret remains in pretrial detention in the murder investigation of Laure Zacchello, whose body has not been found.
