Two days following the death of Carène Mazino, a 37-year-old nurse, mother of two, mortally wounded with a knife at the university hospital center (CHU) in Reims (Marne), where she worked, the emotion is coupled with questions regarding the causes of this tragedy, which also seriously injured a 56-year-old medical secretary. The attacker is a 59-year-old man with a serious psychiatric history.
As requested by the Reims public prosecutor’s office, the suspect, Franck F., was indicted on Wednesday evening May 24 for “murder and attempted murder”, and placed in pre-trial detention. In the middle of the day, Wednesday, the public prosecutor of Reims, Matthieu Bourrette, had given several elements of context on this tragedy. Arrested immediately following the events, Franck F. has a heavy psychiatric past. Diagnosed in 1985 as suffering from schizophrenia, he made many stays in psychiatric hospitals, and lived under guardianship, with the status of disabled adult.
Very agitated during his police custody, the fifties admitted a premeditated attack. According to the Reims public prosecutor, Franck F. explained that he had developed resentment once morest the ” hospital environment “ and psychiatry, which he blames for having “wasted his life”. “He had been thinking for several months” To “to plant the first white blouses that he would see”, according to M. Bourrette’s account.
Differing opinions
In June 2017, Franck F., who had hitherto had no problem with the justice system, attacked the staff of the Establishment and service of help through work (ESAT) of Meix-Tiercelin, in the Marne, in which he resided, injuring four people with a knife. Following this attack, committed without apparent reason, but probably following stopping his drug treatment, Franck F. was hospitalized under duress for nearly two years, from June 2017 to August 2019. A measure repeated on September 2 to October 17, 2020, then from July 12 to December 14, 2021, following crises.
The judicial investigation ordered following his 2017 attack had ended, “given the plurality of expert reports reporting the abolition of his discernment”detailed prosecutor Bourrette, by sending the documents to the Reims Court of Appeal, which must rule, Friday, May 26, on its criminal liability, and decide on possible new security measures, including potentially hospitalization under constraint.
The man had also been placed under curatorship since March 2019; a measure entrusted to a guardianship manager from Châlons-en-Champagne where he was followed in psychiatry. When he was not hospitalized under duress, Franck F. was closely monitored medically. However, acknowledged Mr. Bourrette, opinions differed on his case between the psychiatrist in charge of his follow-up and the legal representative.
