arrested again for cocaine use in 2019, for which he pleaded guilty. On 10 February 2023, Palmade was responsible for causing a car accident, colliding head-on with another vehicle travelling on the other lane near Villiers-en-Bière in the south of Seine-et-Marne. Palmade was sent to the hospital in critical condition at the Kremlin-Bicêtre's hospital but recovered the next day, and his life was no longer in danger. The other car was carrying a pregnant woman, her brother-in-law, the driver of the vehicle, and his six-year-old child. Due to trauma of the accident, the 27-year-old woman was taken to the hospital, where she had an emergency caesarean section. Her seven-months old baby died. The day after the accident, the lives of the vehicle's three occupants were "still in danger". Two passengers in Palmade's car had fled after the collision. An investigation into possible manslaughter began following a toxicology report; it was found that Palmade was driving under the influence of cocaine. On 12 February, the woman's life was no longer in danger, but the man and his child remained in critical condition. On 14 February 2023, the victims' lawyer announced that the 27-year-old woman's baby "would have been born alive, but this has to be confirmed by the experts". The advocate also stated that the 38-year-old driver of the vehicle and his six-year-old son were still in the intensive care unit; the child has a "fractured jaw" and is "disfigured".
