Daval case: an aerosol can found near Alexia's body could overwhelm Jonathann

Jonathann Daval, suspected of killing his wife at Gray a year ago changed several times versions but has always denied having burned the body of his wife, found charred in a forest.

According to the latest items reported by our colleagues in Paris, an "object found in a search, and submitted to an expert report in September, could involve Jonathann Daval in the cremation of the body of his wife Alexia". The element in question is a spray can without cork found at the home of Jonathann Daval. The fact that the latter was not wearing a cap is not a negligible detail.

Indeed, a corresponding cap was found near the body of Alexia, charred at 30%. According to Le Parisien: "In an expert report recently handed over to the investigating judge, the commissioned engineer estimates that" the fire was initiated in several separate locations ", baduming the use of an additional source of heat. the fire had been fed only by the clothing worn by the victim, he writes, the burns would have been much more homogeneous. "

according to Gilles-Jean Portejoie, lawyer of Gregory Gay beau-fere of Jonathann, this element is overwhelming. Questioned by the daily, the lawyer settled in Clermont-Ferrand said: "It does not surprise me because we are all convinced of his guilt".

"It's the doubt that prevails"

Randall Shwerdorffer, Jonathann Daval's lawyer, told us that this new element did not prove the guilt of his client. "I'm getting tired of learning everything in the press and never reading my file, and maybe I'll comment afterwards. The conclusions of the expert are not affirmative in any way. It is doubt that predominates. Legally, when there is no certainty on a piece of evidence, it's not evidence, "Randall Shwerdorffer told us Monday afternoon." We have the keys to explain Jonathann's version changes. " also entrusted the bisontin lawyer.
