Cedric Jubillar admits to the murder of his wife Delphine

Cedric Jubillar, who was sentenced to 30 years in prison for the murder of his wife Delphine Jubillar, has confessed to the killing in a letter to his lawyer. Delphine, a 33-year-old nurse and mother of two, disappeared from their home in Cagnac-les-Mines, southern France, on the night of December 15-16, 2020. Despite extensive searches, her body was never recovered. Jubillar had maintained his innocence throughout his trial and conviction, which was based on circumstantial evidence. The confession comes ahead of an appeal hearing scheduled for later this year. Lawyers for the 38-year-old stated that he is now prepared to cooperate with authorities to locate her remains. He reportedly claimed the death occurred following an intense argument. This development is expected to significantly impact the upcoming judicial proceedings.
