Following the High Court refusal this morning to grant the extradition of Ian Bailey to face trial in France for the 1996 murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier (top)….
Anne-Louise Foley writes:
In The Du Plantier Case, a new RTÉ One documentary which airs tonight, the son of Sophie Toscan du Plantier talks about the impact of her death on him and his family. Pierre-Louis was 14 when the French film producer was found brutally murdered in West Cork.
The programme also hears unprecedented testimony from Sophie’s mother Marguerite Bouniol and her brother Bertrand.
The High Court refused to order Ian Bailey’s extradition to France. However, it is still possible that he will be tried ‘in absentia’ in Paris.
Reporter Philip Boucher Hayes also interviews Mr Bailey along with his partner Jules Thomas.
The Du Plantier Case airs tonight on RTÉ One at 9.35pm

Can this programme be trusted? They did one on Mary Boyle and never mentioned her uncle, the one on Trevor Deeley ignored the cctv photo that showed 3 men standing outside the gate.
+1, if Barry Cummins shows up on it, I won’t be watching it..
