BAYONNE , Feb 24 — Prosecutors today charged a 16-year-old boy with murder over the fatal stabbing of his Spanish teacher during class earlier this week in southwest France, his lawyer said.
“We are speaking about a young man who was previously not on any judicial or school radar and who acted suddenly based on personal motives that I will not divulge publicly but that need to be probed by psychiatrists,” he said. It reported “elements of depression” evolving over the past year, but no “mental illness such as schizophrenia, a manic phase, melancholia or mental slowness”.But he was found to be capable of bearing criminal responsibility for his acts.In conversations with a psychiatrist, the boy said he had had a fight with a classmate the day before and wanted to “punish him in some way” by committing the killing in front of him, the prosecutor said.
Such attacks at schools are rare in France, but there have been growing concerns about the security of teachers.
