## Coverage angles

Both sides report the same judicial referral with a similar factual angle; the right adds details on the obsessive motive and the referral date, while the center remains more succinct on the facts.

**Common ground**

- A man is referred to criminal court for the kidnapping of his former high school teacher in Poitiers
- The accused had spied on the victim for several years before the facts
- Justice has confirmed the referral

**Differences**

- The right explicitly mentions an obsessive 'delirium' and intrusion into the victim's home, elements absent from the center's title and excerpt
- The right specifies the accused's age (44) and the referral date (Tuesday, November 3), not taken up in the center's excerpt
