Le projet d\u2019une \u00e9tude criminologique du filicide-suicide \u2013 \u00e0 savoir l\u2019homicide d\u2019enfants par un parent, suivi du suicide ou de la tentative de suicide de ce dernier \u2013 s\u2019inscrit dans un contexte national de lutte contre les violences intrafamiliales. Ce ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne soulevant des questionnements \u00e9thiques, sociaux et cliniques, il importait de l\u2019\u00e9tudier au prisme de l\u2019interdisciplinarit\u00e9 et avec une m\u00e9thodologie adapt\u00e9e. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00c9tablis \u00e0 partir des donn\u00e9es recueillies dans les Instituts m\u00e9dico-l\u00e9gaux et les tribunaux judiciaires, deux corpus analytiques compl\u00e9mentaires ont \u00e9t\u00e9 constitu\u00e9s afin de permettre une \u00e9tude circonstanci\u00e9e \u00e0 partir des cas identifi\u00e9s dans le quart Sud-Est de la France \u00e0 partir de 2010. Un premier corpus repose sur l\u2019exploitation de donn\u00e9es m\u00e9dico-l\u00e9gales \u00e0 partir de l\u2019examen des expertises thanatologiques r\u00e9alis\u00e9es sur r\u00e9quisition judiciaire de d\u00e9c\u00e8s (victime(s) et auteur\u00b7rice) dans les ressorts des Instituts m\u00e9dico-l\u00e9gaux de Grenoble, Lyon et Marseille. Le second int\u00e8gre l\u2019ensemble des donn\u00e9es collect\u00e9es \u00e0 partir des dossiers judiciaires ouverts dans le cadre d\u2019une enqu\u00eate de flagrance ou d\u2019une information judiciaire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plut\u00f4t que de r\u00e9duire le filicide-suicide \u00e0 un geste impulsif ou \u00e0 une pathologie isol\u00e9e, cette \u00e9tude propose une lecture syst\u00e9mique et plurifactorielle du passage \u00e0 l\u2019acte. On observe tout d\u2019abord que la terminologie en usage pour qualifier le filicide-suicide est inad\u00e9quate. Fond\u00e9e sur le mode chronologique du d\u00e9roulement des faits, le suicide \u00e9tant n\u00e9cessairement cons\u00e9cutif au geste homicide, elle a pour effet de marginaliser le suicide dans la compr\u00e9hension du processus criminologique. En croisant les facteurs de vuln\u00e9rabilit\u00e9 et les \u00e9v\u00e9nements d\u00e9clencheurs ou pr\u00e9cipitants, la grille d\u2019analyse adopt\u00e9e t\u00e9moigne
ensuite de l\u2019intrication singuli\u00e8re de m\u00e9canismes d\u00e9fensifs, de traumatismes, de repr\u00e9sentations parentales et de contextes socio-affectifs qui fragilisent les tentatives de g\u00e9n\u00e9ralisation ou la validation des typologies utilis\u00e9es jusqu\u2019ici pour d\u00e9crire ce ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Par-del\u00e0 l\u2019analyse des trajectoires individuelles, cette recherche s\u2019int\u00e9resse \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re dont la consid\u00e9ration du filicide-suicide est travaill\u00e9e par les dynamiques soci\u00e9tales. La n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 d\u2019\u00e9tablir la responsabilit\u00e9 p\u00e9nale d\u2019un individu occulte la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 \u00e9motionnelle et psychique du passage \u00e0 l\u2019acte. En sacrifiant \u00e0 l\u2019injonction sensationnaliste propre au fait divers, l\u2019exposition m\u00e9diatique nuit \u00e9galement \u00e0 l\u2019intelligibilit\u00e9 du ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne criminologique. Enfin, l\u2019adoption d\u2019un cadre th\u00e9orique fond\u00e9 sur l\u2019analyse des rapports sociaux infantistes \u2013 marqu\u00e9s par des asym\u00e9tries structurelles entre adultes et enfants \u2013 met en lumi\u00e8re la mani\u00e8re dont les enfants victimes sont priv\u00e9s de leur statut de sujets autonomes, tant dans le filicide que dans son traitement judiciaire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project to conduct a criminological study of filicide-suicide\u2014defined as the killing of children by a parent followed by the parent’s own suicide or suicide attempt\u2014is framed within a national context of the fight against intrafamilial violence. Given the ethical, social, and clinical issues raised by this phenomenon, it was necessary to examine it through an interdisciplinary lens supported by an appropriate methodological framework.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on data collected from forensic institutes and judicial courts, two complementary analytical corpora were constructed to enable a contextualized study of cases identified in the southeastern region of France since 2010. The first corpus is based on forensic data drawn from thanatological reports conducted under judicial order in death cases (victims and perpetrators) within the jurisdictions of the forensic institutes of Grenoble, Lyon, and Marseille. The second corpus comprises all data collected from judicial case files opened as part of an emergency preliminary inquiry (enqu\u00eate de flagrance) or a judicial investigation (information judiciaire).<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than reducing filicide-suicide to an impulsive act or isolated pathology, this study proposes a systemic and multifactorial interpretation of the enactment process. First, it observes that the terminology commonly used to characterize filicide-suicide is inadequate. Based on the chronological sequence of events\u2014suicide necessarily following the homicidal act\u2014this terminology tends to marginalize suicide in the understanding of the criminological process. Then, by cross-referencing vulnerability factors with triggering or precipitating events, the analytical framework highlights the unique interplay of defensive mechanisms, of trauma, of parental representations, and of socio-affective contexts, which undermine attempts at generalization or the validation of typologies previously employed to describe the phenomenon.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the analysis of individual trajectories, this research also explores how the consideration of filicide-suicide is shaped by broader societal dynamics. The imperative to establish individual criminal responsibility often obscures the emotional and psychological reality underlying the act. By conforming to the sensationalist demands of news coverage, media exposure harms the intelligibility of the criminological phenomenon. Finally, the adoption of a theoretical framework based on the analysis of infantist social relations\u2014characterized by structural asymmetries between adults and children\u2014highlights how child victims are denied their status as autonomous subjects, both in the filicide itself and in its judicial treatment.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/details>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":17917,"template":"","disciplines":[428,114,93,1777,375],"collections":[119],"publication_tag":[3362,3363,3360,3364],"auteurs":[1794,224,3367],"class_list":["post-17912","publications","type-publications","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","disciplines-criminologie","disciplines-droit","disciplines-histoire","disciplines-medecine","disciplines-psychologie","collections-rapports-de-recherche","publication_tag-criminologie","publication_tag-donnees-medico-legales","publication_tag-filicide-suicide","publication_tag-tribunaux-judiciaires","auteurs-catherine-blatier","auteurs-jerome-ferrand","auteurs-virginie-scolan"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nEtude criminologique du filicide-suicide.
