Ms. Elise Rey-Jacquot and Ms. Bilel Hakkar felt that no recent investigation had been conducted into this concept and required that witnesses be rehearsed and confronted with the indictments.
According to BFMTV's information, the lawyers of three indicted in the murder of the young Thomas in 2023 in Crépol ask to challenge the investigating judges as well as the nullity of the aggravating circumstance of "anti-white racism".
The lawyers of three suspects charged with the murder of Thomas in Crépol on Wednesday requested the recusal of the investigating judges in charge of the case and the nullity of the aggravating circumstance of racism that they had retained. They considered that the rights of the defence were not respected.
The judges did consider a possible racial motive after testimonies that denounced phrases such as "we've come to stab white people"
The Valencian Public Prosecutor's Office has requested that the aggravating circumstance of anti-white and anti-French racism should not be retained in the Crepol case, unlike the investigating judges. A position that provokes strong reactions to the right of the political chessboard.
In a final closing statement, on Monday, August 17, 2026, the Prosecutor's Office considers that the racist nature of the murder of Thomas Perotto, which occurred in Crépol in November 2023, cannot be upheld, a position contrary to that expressed last July by the investigating judges.
