The Corrèze criminal court (cour d'assises) has adjourned the trial of a mother and a stepfather accused of habitual violence against a minor resulting in death without intent to kill. Their child, a girl aged one year and four months, had been found dead. The trial opened on Monday and a verdict was due on Tuesday evening, but the presiding judge halted it for lack of time. The stepfather, who was being held in pre-trial detention, has gone back to prison, and the new trial is not expected before 2027.
