Frédéric Mellet has been in pre-trial detention since May 20, 2022. He is indicted for the murder of his wife, Chantal, who disappeared from their sheepfold in Joigny (Yonne) on July 2, 2020.
This Friday, the fifty-year-old must once again be heard by the Auxerre investigating judge. “There are no charges against this man who has been unjustly kept in prison for almost two years because we have not found or even looked for the slightest culprit,” say his lawyers.
