	Bertrand Cantat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bertrand Cantat (born in Pau, France, March 5th 1964) is a French singer and songwriter.
		In July 2003, while rowing with his girlfriend Marie Trintignant in a hotel apartment in Vilnius, Lithuania, he punched her repeatedly, which resulted in her falling into a coma and eventually dying few days later.
		The verdict was at first appealed by Marie's family, then by Bertrand Cantat, but both parties ultimately decided to cancel their appeals, which rendered the first 8 years judgment final.

	BBC NEWS \| Entertainment \| Music \| Profile: Bertrand Cantat
		Cantat was born in Normandy in 1964, but moved to Bordeaux as a young man where he formed Noir Desir - or Black Desire - with guitarist Serge Teyssot-Gay, bassist Frédéric Vidalenc and drummer Denis Barthe in 1980.
		Cantat claimed it had been an accident; a crime of passion, that he had not meant to kill Trintignant when he slapped her four times across the face then tucked her sleeping body into bed.
		Cantat cried often in court as he spoke about their "extraordinary love" and the case sparked a heated debate in France about domestic violence.

	French Rock Musician Gets Eight Years for Killing His Actor Lover
		Bertrand Cantat, one of the France's biggest rock stars, was found guilty of killing his lover, the film and TV star Marie Trintignant, and was jailed for eight years in Lithuania.
		Cantat is a singer-activist appreciated as much for his militant public stands on issues such as anti-racism, the Iraq war, globalisation, the environment and the Middle East conflict as for his powerful, poetic lyrics and charismatic stage presence.
		Cantat admitted to the court earlier this month that he had struck his lover four times during the row, sparked by an affectionate mobile phone text message sent to Trintignant by one of her three former partners.

	Biography - NOIR DESIR
		It was during this period that the group's charismatic frontman Bertrand Cantat began to develop an interest in literature and poetry (particularly the work of young 19th century poets Rimbaud and Mallarmé).

		Bertrand Cantat was held in prison in the Lithuanian capital.

	Priez pour lui by Theodore Dalrymple
		Of course, Cantat was not the first French public intellectual of “impec” political views to have found that it is harder to be good to the person in your bedroom than about the suffering masses of a thousand miles away.
		The lamentable case of Marie Trintignant and Bertrand Cantat was deeply emblematic, as the French liberal newspaper Libération correctly recognized.
		So Cantat is a victim as well as a perpetrator: a victim of the gimcrack ideas propagated at the time of his birth in 1964, at once pietistic and libertine, that he had not the seriousness, the experience, or the intellect to reject, but which he swallowed whole, as Etna swallowed Empedocles.
