He was charged with murder. The man, suspected of having killed his concubine and two of her stabbed children in Carvin, in the Pas-de-Calais, is released from the hospital, indicated, on Monday, the prosecution of Bethune .
The individual, "who has no criminal or psychiatric history", was placed in police custody "as soon as he left intensive care," said the prosecution in a statement.
Neighborhood call evoking a family dispute
He was presented on Saturday to the investigating judge and charged with the counts of "murder on concubine", "murder on a minor under 15", "murder and violence against minors of 15 per person having authority ”, and was placed in pre-trial detention.
On April 5, around 10:45 p.m., the police intervened following a "neighborhood call about a family dispute".
In the accommodation, the police had discovered "three people seriously injured with stabs" and, despite intervention by the emergency services, their deaths had been "quickly observed".
Complaint for acts of violence
A fourth individual, in his forties, according to a police source, presented "wounds corresponding to stab wounds he allegedly inflicted on himself," said the prosecution.
This person had "spontaneously declared to be the author of the fatal blows, without giving any further explanations" and had been transported "in critical condition" to the Lille hospital center. The three victims were his concubine, 36, and two of the latter's children "aged 16 and 11".
The mother had filed a complaint against her partner in October for acts of violence. She had "then withdrawn her complaint" and the man had "disputed the facts". "In the absence of other convincing evidence", the procedure had been closed without further action by the Béthune public prosecutor's office.
