REMEMBER THE GUY WHO SLAPPED MACRON? HE IS GOING TO JAIL FOR EIGHTEEN MONTHS
28-Year-Old To Spend Four Months In Prison For Slapping Macron
The man who slapped French President Emmanuel Macron in the face during his visit to a small town in southern France earlier this week will spend four months in prison for the action, a French court decided Thursday.
Damien Tarel, 28, was given an 18-month sentence for the high-profile slap, but will spend all but four of those months suspended on probation. Tarel faced up to three years in prison and a fine of 45,000 euros ($54,000) for the charge of violence against a public official.
A public prosecutor requested Tarel spend 18 months in jail for an action he decried as a “deliberate act of violence.”
