Sarah Halimi was murdered by her Malian-born neighbor during the French presidential campaign of 2017. The media initially ignored the case before a few journalists managed to mobilize public figures and the President. The investigating judge only wanted to see it as a murder committed by a "madman" having a "delusional episode." This case is emblematic of the rise of anti-Semitism in France today. The various developments in the case, particularly the fact that there are no longer any charges against the murderer, and the prevention of any reconstruction of the case, make it a new Dreyfus Affair. One of the biggest scandals in France today.

Sarah Halimi, une femme juive aimée et respectée dans sa communauté, est assassinée dans son appartement parisien en avril 2017 par son voisin, Kobili Traoré, un homme de 27 ans d'origine malienne. La police, pourtant sur place au moment des faits, n'interviendra pas par manque de renforts.
