Robert Badinter, l\u2019ancien ministre de la Justice de Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand qui a port\u00e9 l\u2019abolition de la peine de mort en France, est d\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 dans la nuit de jeudi \u00e0 vendredi \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e2ge de 95 ans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ministre de la Justice du pr\u00e9sident socialiste Fran\u00e7ois Mitterrand (1981-1986), il porta la loi du 9 octobre 1981 qui abolit la peine de mort, dans une France alors majoritairement en faveur de ce ch\u00e2timent supr\u00eame. Il s\u2019investit par la suite, jusqu\u2019\u00e0 son \u00abdernier souffle de vie\u00bb, pour l\u2019abolition universelle de la peine capitale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
N\u00e9 \u00e0 Paris le 30 mars 1928 dans une famille juive \u00e9migr\u00e9e de Bessarabie (l\u2019actuelle Moldavie), il devient avocat au barreau de Paris apr\u00e8s des \u00e9tudes de lettres et de droit et m\u00e8ne parall\u00e8lement une carri\u00e8re d\u2019enseignant universitaire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cofondateur avec Jean-Denis Bredin d\u2019un prestigieux cabinet d\u2019avocats, il d\u00e9fend des personnalit\u00e9s, des grands noms de la presse ou de l\u2019entreprise, et plaide occasionnellement aux assises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En 1977, il \u00e9vite la peine capitale au meurtrier d\u2019enfant Patrick Henry, condamn\u00e9 \u00e0 la r\u00e9clusion criminelle \u00e0 perp\u00e9tuit\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Divorc\u00e9 d\u2019une actrice \u00e9pous\u00e9e dans les ann\u00e9es 1950, il \u00e9tait mari\u00e9 depuis 1966 \u00e0 la philosophe Elisabeth Badinter, n\u00e9e Bleustein-Blanchet, avec qui il a eu trois enfants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apr\u00e8s son d\u00e9part du gouvernement, il pr\u00e9side pendant neuf ans le Conseil constitutionnel (1986-95).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
S\u00e9nateur socialiste de 1995 \u00e0 2011, il a la satisfaction de voir l\u2019abolition de la peine de mort inscrite dans la Constitution en 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Toujours tr\u00e8s actif, il planche sur une r\u00e9forme de l\u2019ONU dans les ann\u00e9es 2000 et sur la r\u00e9forme du Code du travail pendant le quinquennat de Fran\u00e7ois Hollande.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
