An emotional trial
Hundreds of black robes and victims find themselves day after day in a gigantic room built for the occasion.
All eyes are on the dock and especially on Salah Abdeslam, the last living member of the commandos.
Dressed all in black, black mask, the accused claims to be an Islamic State fighter.
His attitude changed a lot during the trial, sometimes provocative, and then calmer to the point of tears.
What was truly unprecedented in this trial was the six weeks of depositions by the civil parties, more than 400 testimonies.
