Violette Nozière (murderer)
Violette Nozière (11 January 1915 – 26 November 1966) was a French woman who was convicted of murdering her father. Chabrol's 1978 film of the same name was based on this case. During the trial, she accused her father of having sexually abused her, making it one of the first cases of incest to appear in the French modern press. Life Nozière was a bright child who gradually became wayward. As a young woman, she was indulged and supplemented her allowance with occasional surreptitious prostitution. As a result, she contracted syphilis and, when she became ill, her doctor felt obliged to tell her parents. Nozière persuaded a doctor to certify that she was a virgin in order to persuade her parents that her disease was hereditary. Her parents believed this and Nozière continued to subsidise her lifestyle.

Prisoners Sentenced To Death By France
A prisoner, also known as an inmate or detainee, is a person who is deprived of liberty against their will. This can be by confinement or captivity in a prison or physical restraint. The term usually applies to one serving a sentence in prison. English law "Prisoner" is a legal term for a person who is imprisoned. In section 1 of the Prison Security Act 1992, the word "prisoner" means any person for the time being in a prison as a result of any requirement imposed by a court or otherwise that he be detained in legal custody. "Prisoner" was a legal term for a person prosecuted for felony. It was not applicable to a person prosecuted for misdemeanour. The abolition of the distinction between felony and misdemeanour by section 1 of the Criminal Law Act 1967 has rendered this distinction obsolete. Glanville Williams described as "invidious" the practice of using the term "prisoner" in reference to a person who had not been convicted. History The earliest evidence of the e ...
