Maylis Daubon Convicted of Poisoning Daughters, Sentenced to 30 Years With 20-Year Parole Bar

The Landes assizes also ordered compulsory treatment, going beyond the prosecutor’s request.

Overview

  • The court’s sentence exceeded the requisitions, which sought 30 years with a 15-year safety period, by fixing a 20-year parole bar and imposing a treatment injunction.
  • Toxicology showed Enea had ingested propranolol at roughly ten times the therapeutic level before suffering convulsions and dying days later.
  • Investigators reported finding propranolol packets hidden in the mother’s bedroom and in a living-room cabinet during a search.
  • Later analyses indicated the younger daughter, Luan, had significant levels of zopiclone despite being a minor at the time.
  • Daubon denies harming her children, maintains Enea died by suicide, and has ten days to appeal, while expert witnesses described possible Münchhausen by proxy and a controlling influence over the girls.
