Death of an 11-year-old in France exposes cracks in the judicial system
An 11-year-old girl named Lyhanna disappeared in France's Gers region on May 29 and was later found dead in a grain silo. A 41-year-old man, previously accused of preying on minors but released due to lack of evidence, is now the prime suspect. French officials, including President Macron and Justice Minister Darmanin, criticized systemic failures in the judicial process that allowed the suspect to remain free despite prior allegations.
