The sentence pronounced is well below the requisitions of the general prosecutor’s office, which had requested 18 years of criminal imprisonment, as well as a definitive ban on French territory, against of the young woman of 29 years. Pierre Deval, his lawyer, hailed “a human decision and a legal decision”. During his argument, he described the requisitions as “misanthropic”. “We ask you to judge her as if she were endowed with reason”, but “Ouarda did not take her medication”, he explained, pleading for the abolition of discernment.
“What is there anything more serious than abusing your child to the point of killing him?”, asked the Advocate General during his requisitions. “A mother does not have a right of life and death over her child”, she continued, considering that the accused was “perfectly aware of the harm she was doing to her son, but was starting again”.
