“Women Beaten In Vesoul: ‘A Terrorist Act Based Upon Radicalization,'” translated from “Femmes Tabassées à Vesoul : ‘Un Acte Terroriste sur fond de Radicalisation,'” La Presse de Vesoul, April 6, 2023 (thanks to Medforth):
On Wednesday, March 22, the attack of two women by an individual in the Pierres Vives district aroused emotion in Vesoul and far beyond. Nicolas, one of the sons of one of the victims, Colombe Grillot, testifies alongside Jean-Marc Florand. The family lawyer provides information on this probably premeditated attack.
Since Wednesday March 22, the Grillot family, known for its empathy and its involvement in several associations, has been plunged between horror, doubt and hope. “We learned from our parents to remain optimistic,” notes one of the three sons, Nicolas, holding back his anger. “My dad always repeats that ‘life is beautiful,’ so we cling to these values that they taught us. We are a united and supportive family. We are together around our mom.”
Colombe Grillot, 72 years old in September, was the victim, on Wednesday, March 22, of an attack of rare violence by an individual, in a peaceful street in the Pierres Vives district (our previous edition). A 50-year-old woman was also beaten and left for dead before the attacker violently attacked the septuagenarian. “He crushed our mum by breaking her ribs, pelvis, jaw, all the bones of her face with his fists and kicks. She is disfigured and he left her for dead under the eyes of his granddaughter, my 13-year-old niece,” recounts Nicolas Grillot, who has difficulty relating this episode, in a broken voice. “He wanted to kill her and we would like to understand his motivations, even if we already have an idea.”
After this attack, the public prosecutor commented in a press release in the evening. “At 9:45 a.m. a minibus with two children stopped when a man opened the driver’s door, forced the 50-year-old female driver to get out and beat her with his bare hands. The 34-year-old then attacked a 71-year-old woman who had just entered a house. He also gave her numerous blows before this woman’s granddaughter, who was present at the time of the attack, alerted the police.”
The individual was arrested shortly after at the Vesoul mosque. He was then placed in police custody, then transferred to the psychiatric hospital of Saint-Rémy.
According to our sources, the 30-year-old, born in Vesoul, was not on file S, “state security,” but was known to the police and justice services. According to the prosecution, which qualified the act as “attempted murder,” he displayed “personality disorders and has already received psychiatric treatment in the past.”
There are other disturbing elements, charges Jean-Marc Florand, in charge of defending the interests of the family. For him, the charges brought are not appropriate. He explains: “We must wonder about the criminal qualification of the facts which is provisional. The prosecutor declared an attempted murder.” The criminal lawyer agrees: “If the legal elements are confirmed, it would rather be an assassination attempt. It will be necessary to consider retaining a terrorist qualification against a background of radicalization of the perpetrator.”
According to various witnesses, the individual was indeed seen at the scene of the tragedy, a few days before the incident. “He was seen in the vicinity, which goes in the direction of premeditation, therefore of the qualification of attempted assassination. On the other hand, still according to our sources, his behavior questions as to his possible radicalization and his motivations. ”
The Vesulian lawyer continues: “Among the clues, the two victims are exclusively adult women. He did not attack the three children present on the spot (Editor’s note: two children were in the minibus and the granddaughter of the septuagenarian). He was dressed in a traditional outfit with religious connotations and more disturbing, the facts occurred the day before the opening of Ramadan. That raises questions!
Other testimonies are overwhelming. The man was reportedly seen wiping the blood from his shoes and hands following this episode, before resuming his journey on foot towards the mosque. Another person present, testifies to having discovered him, at the end of his outburst of violence, removing his disposable type gloves to abandon them in a trash can (our photo). In a press release, the deputy Antoine Villedieu also mentioned that the attacker refused to address the female nursing staff during his care at the hospital. “Justice and investigators will have to shed light on a possible radicalization. As a reminder, March 22 is also the anniversary of the day of the death of Mohammed Merah.” The terrorist was indeed killed by the police on March 22, 2012, after having murdered seven people, including three children.
The question running through the minds of members of the Grillot family often comes up: “Will he be found incompetent to stand trial and will he be released in a year or two?” Nicolas Grillot refuses to consider this possibility. “We don’t want that so that he doesn’t repeat these facts. We want to put him out of harm’s way!” According to Me Florand, the individual will be the subject of in-depth psychological and psychiatric examinations. “They will be entrusted to legal expert doctors who will have to decide on a possible alteration of his mental faculties or an abolition of his discernment. In the event of alteration, a trial will nevertheless take place before the Assize Court of Haute- Saône, which would not be the case if there were to be a total abolition of his discernment. He observes: “The behavior of this person before, during and after the facts, does not militate in favor of the abolition of his discernment.”
Resuming contact for a patient plunged into a coma means, in medical jargon, “again showing signs of life.” The victim can move a hand, a finger to answer simple questions. This is the case of Colombe Grillot who, on Monday, reacted when her daughter and one of her sons held her hand. “My mum gave signs of contact by moving her fingers and opening one eye,” informs Nicolas. “She underwent major facial surgery yesterday.” A former math teacher, the retiree gave a lot of her free time, taking care of her village church, catechism, preparing for religious ceremonies. She also survived breast cancer thirteen years ago. “She was a fighter who had won against the disease. We know in the family what to fight means. We would like to thank the Vesulian police, the firefighters and the nursing staff, as well as the emergency services of Vesoul hospital and Besançon intensive care unit.”
The second victim is still hospitalized in Vesoul hospital. Her life is not in danger.
As we close our subject, we learn that the author of this double aggression, tried to end his life from his place of internment. The attempt was aborted thanks to the intervention of the nursing staff.

Vesoul is near Mulhouse, France in the northeast region. I hope the 2 ladies who were sadistically beaten recover from their wounds, and I also hope this sadistic Muslim attacker gets shot by a firing squad after a jury finds him guilty of attempted murder.

A Terrorist Act Based Upon Radicalization
When, oh when, will ‘they’ ever get it through their thick skulls: it’s not radicalization. It’s fundamentalism–as whoever actually wrote Qur’an intended it to be.
VictorMc says
If you study the stats France is a lost cause and as fast as they take in Muslims their Jews are leaving (mainly for Israel) Thus they are replacing the educated professionals with Muslim lunatics (mainly from N. Africa) France once had the 3rd largest number of Jews in the world after Israel and the US.
How stupid can you get.?.Goodbye France (and Sweden/others)
James Lincoln says
VictorMc,
The demographics of at least France, Germany, and Sweden – moving forward with no changes – will result in islamization and sharia law.
Michael Copeland says
“an individual”…… How abstract and uninformative. We have to learn to translate.
It is not until paragraph NINE that we are told:
“He was dressed in a traditional outfit with religious connotations…” A saffron robe? Was he a Buddhist monk?
The only clue is that the attack occurred ” the day before the opening of Ramadan”.
The article ponders whether the attacker was “radicalised”.
Those two hints are all we are given.
Nowhere does the word “muslim” appear. We are left to make deductions.
He had carefully donned disposable gloves, which a witness saw him remove and dispose of.
To clarify:
a muslim individual in traditional Islamic garb viciously attacked two non-muslim women in a premeditated assault. He may have mental issues, but he was clear enough in his choice of victims, and clear enough to refuse to speak to non-muslim female staff members of the institution to which he was sent..
OLD GUY says
Ad the fact that he put on gloves to do the attack makes it a premeditated attack on these women. Sadly the insane judicial systems will set him free again after his mental health vacation and he will most likely attack and kill some other vulnerable individual.
Michael Copeland says
Quite probably the gloves were so that he would not have to touch the filthy kuffar he would be attempting to kill. That would entail a tiresome wudu ablution.

CASTRATION immediately and every time one of these murderous islamic jihad terrorists is apprehended!
somehistory says
Michael Copeland,
you have it in a nutshell. The account was written in a way to hide facts, rather than reveal them. Only someone who had knowledge of these things that mozlums do…attack women viciously for no apparent reason…strangers on the street…and when sent to evaluation/treatment, refuse to communicate with other women…would recognize that the perp is a devout mozlum.
Hoi Polloi says
Death penalty.
fadeye@yahoo.com says
EVERY violent mozlem terrorist should be Castrsted immediately upon capture. Then, the brain dead authorities can be as lenient as they want!!
