13 years' imprisonment for stabbing a teacher
A real mess, "according to the victim. Kévani Wansale, the young man found 20 years for stabbing a teacher in the middle of the course in December 2005, was sentenced Saturday to 13 years' rigorous imprisonment by the Assize Court of Essonne who felt that her act was premeditated .
The public prosecutor had requested fifteen years in prison against him.
The young man, who was found in Evry since Wednesday, was found guilty of having struck several knife wounds on December 16, 2005 Karen Montet-Toutain, art teacher at the Lycée Louis-Blériot professional at Etampes. The teacher was critically wounded in the abdomen and arm.
"The final word is that this story is a real mess for both sides. Whether a simple communication problem, we get here ...", regretted the victim, very moved, to the press after the verdict. "It's really a pity."
"I am not satisfied. It is unimaginable," his later told the Associated Press the lawyer for the young man, Damien Me Brossier. "They should be doing 13 years. Leave you in what state? Someone who leaves after a few years of imprisonment is not at all the same person after ten years. Can we one day s 'Rely On?, "he asked.
Me Brossier felt he had "no need" of a conviction after his long journey. The former student has indeed grown without personal reference, his father had died during the war in Zaire in conditions blurred, and his schooling has been disrupted by many removals and several investments.
The defense has ten days to appeal the decision if it wished. Me Brossier said it was a "decision to ripen." "Can we have a better decision than this? On the facts of this type, you can be sentenced to 18 years," he recalled. Kévani Wansale ran lifers.
The prosecution alleged that the student had premeditated his gesture, drawing on the various testimonies of the students present at the time of the attack. The student was also seated in the front row, contrary to its habits.
A week before the facts, Kévani Wansale had been excluded from his school. On the eve of the facts, in an interview with the student's mother, Mrs. Montet-Toutain had indicated that the Disciplinary Board was intended and could be permanently excluded. Returning to this appointment, the mother had reprimanded for his conduct as "rogue" in the classroom.
On December 16, in the morning, the teacher asked the student to remove the jacket he kept in the classroom. Having refused, the student would have lifted before approaching her and the stab. During the investigation, Kévani Wansale acknowledged to be the perpetrator, but said he had no intention to kill the teacher. He explained that he had come to school with a knife to commit suicide before their position.
While Mrs. Montet-Toutain had earlier alerted his superiors about problems in the classroom, a report by the Inspector General has estimated that in January 2006 National Education did not commit "serious misconduct" that would have led aggression the teacher.
His attorney, Koffi Senah, said hope that this case will serve as a lesson, that National Education undertake a real substantive work and that appropriate solutions can be found for the teaching profession as a whole.
