Brigitte Macron cyberbullying case: ten convicted in Paris court
Defendants fund guilty of spreading transphobic tweets and false claims targeting France’s first lady
A Paris criminal court has found ten people guilty in the Brigitte Macron cyberbullying case, convicting them for spreading transphobic tweets targeting France’s first lady. The defendants were accused of circulating false claims about Brigitte Macron’s gender and sexuality on social media.
Prosecutors also charged the group with making “malicious comments” about the 24-year age difference between Brigitte Macron and her husband, French President Emmanuel Macron. The court ruled that the online attacks constituted cyberbullying and harassment.
All ten defendants received suspended prison sentences ranging from six to eight months. The heaviest sentence — eight months suspended — was handed down to Aurélien Poirson-Atlan, a social media figure known as Zoé Sagan.
During the trial, Poirson-Atlan claimed to be exposing what was described as a “shocking state secret about state-sanctioned pedophilia,” allegations the court rejected as unfounded. The ruling closes a high-profile chapter in the Brigitte Macron cyberbullying case, highlighting the French judiciary’s stance against online harassment and hate speech.
