Mise en demeure

Jean-Philippe Reverdot, Bernard Lamarche-Vadel

« Commençant son tour de la pièce par les photographies épinglées en altitude du lavabo, lavocat Andrieu hoche la tête face à quelques images dont il conserve parfaite connaissance. Il stoppe sa progression contre les murs de la chambre, son visage sencadre au centre dune image inconnue dans son dossier ; il scrute, se rapproche, recule, évalue ; parfois il prend des notes dans un carnet de poche relié en cuir noir. Après deux tours de lexposition il revient à limage de lenveloppe reçue en 1945, le cachet de la poste faisant foi orné des mots République française. Lenveloppe à cause de son cachet qui la date, autant que la lettre contenue, dans le dossier pèse un poids considérable pour le procès. Une lettre de menaces et sur limage punaisée à gauche de larmoire, ‘lenveloppe sur laquelle un enfant lirait aisément le millésime. »
