Are there any updates on the Trial please? I've just finished reading 37 pages thanks to bearbear who posted the link to this thread in Little William Tyrrells thread and I'd very much like to see Justice for Sweet Fiona..... but I can't seem to find a thread to follow the trial. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I don't think I've ever heard of this case. Hopefully the increased sentence means there's no longer any reason to withhold Fiona's location.

Probably just wishful thinking.

_______________

Bourgeon, 30, had been acquitted of murder in 2016 and sentenced to five years for lying about her daughter's fate.

Following a two-week appeal in central France, a jury of nine women overturned her sentence and handed her a 20-year penalty, quadrupling her jail time.

[...]

At the latest hearing, Prosecutor Raphael Gentile de Sanesi described the pair as "torturers" who collaborated in "ongoing violence" against her daughter in the days leading up to her death.

There was no new evidence about how Fiona died or how much responsibility each adult bore in her death but the court recognised she was the victim of "mistreatment".

[...]

Fiona's father Nicolas Chafoulais said: "She got the sentence she deserves. It is a relief for me and justice for Fiona.

"But am I at peace? No. It hasn't brought my daughter back."

Cécile Bourgeon had her conviction overturned in February 2019 and was released from prison. She is due to have a new trial in January 2020 - however, she is currently pregnant and due to give birth in February 2020.

Fiona case. Cécile Bourgeon definitively condemned, the end of a long judicial series​

This Wednesday, the Court of Cassation dismissed the new appeal filed by Cécile Bourgeon's lawyers. The girl's mother is therefore permanently sentenced to 20 years in prison for the violence that killed little Fiona, 5 years old.

"She never gave her truth"​

We were told a fifth trial that will not take place. She is definitively found guilty of the murder of her own daughter. She never delivered her truth and we all remember her disgusting defense system that leads to her staying safe, far from children, for a long time, said Charles Fribourg, the lawyer of Fiona's father, Nicolas Chafoulais. The latter also filed a complaint against Cécile Bourgeon for violence against Fiona's little sister. Facts that are the subject of another procedure.
