# Trial of Inass Touloub's Parents, Girl Found Dead Near the A10

> Inass Touloub, nicknamed the "little martyr of the A10," was found dead as a child near the A10 highway in 1987. She was only identified by DNA in 2018, after nearly 31 years, in one of France's longest cold cases. The trial of her alleged torturer parents opens on November 2, 2026, before the Loir-et-Cher Assize Court, 39 years after the events. The village of Suèvres, which has maintained the girl's burial site for forty years, wishes to join as a civil party. A look back at over thirty years of investigation precedes this trial.

## Reported figures

- 39 deaths

## Coverage angles

The three sides cover the same trial with a common factual base (dates, DNA, child's age), but differ in angle: the left emphasizes the investigative mechanics and chronology, the center focuses on the investigators' emotion and the village's commitment, the right on the parents' background and secrecy as well as the legal qualification of the facts.

**Common ground**

- Inass Touloub, 4 years old, found dead near the A10 in 1987
- Identification by DNA in 2018, after about 31 years
- Opening of the parents' trial on November 2, 2026 before the Loir-et-Cher Assize Court
- About 39 years between the events and the trial

**Differences**

- The left emphasizes the investigative method (cold case culture, DNA); the right on the parents' background and secrecy.
- The center develops the village of Suèvres' commitment and the emotional dimension of the investigators, scarcely present in the other excerpts.
- The right uses the terms "alleged murderers" and "torturers"; the left and center speak of "alleged" parents tried for torture.
