    Psychological support system for assize court jurors
    (Elsevier B.V.,, 2025) Bouchard, Jean-Pierre; Masson, Josué; Mintoff, Karine
    Assize court jurors, as lay citizens in the judicial system, are exposed to intense stress due to their participation in criminal trials. Given this specific context, the Emergency Medical-Psychological Unit of the Marne (CUMP 51) has implemented an innovative support system aimed at preventing and addressing potential psychopathological reactions. This article describes the foundations, structure, and clinical evaluation of this three-component system: a preventive and psychoeducational intervention, immediate psychological support in the form of debriefing, and post-immediate follow-up for jurors presenting with persistent symptoms. Clinical observations confirm the psychological impact of the juror's role and highlight the relevance of such a support system, while also identifying areas for improvement. In this interview with Jean-Pierre Bouchard, Josué Masson, Karine Mintoff, Émilie Philippe, and Mélanie Hermand discuss the development and implementation of the support psychological system for assize court jurors, its perception by jurors, and its future perspectives. They present the system, its benefits, limitations, and the challenges they have encountered throughout their experience.

    “VigilanS-Prison”: a brief contact intervention to prevent suicidal behavior in prisons and corrections
    (Elsevier Masson s.r.l., 2025) Bouchard, Jean-Pierre; Mao, Élodie; Fovet, Thomas
    In France, suicide accounts for around half of all deaths in prisons. Every year, around 120 people die by suicide in French prisons, i.e. one suicide every three days. Preventing suicide in prisons is therefore a major public health issue. In this interview With Jean-Pierre Bouchard, Élodie Mao, Thomas Fovet, Christel Debien, Guillaume Vaiva, Christophe Debien and Vincent Jardon provide feedback on the implementation of the VigilanS-Prison system in Hauts-de-France. The main principles of this brief contact intervention are presented, an initial activity report is given and the development prospects for this experiment are discussed
