PARIS - Former French prime minister Francois Fillon and his wife Penelope go on trial on Monday over a fake jobs scandal that wrecked his 2017 run for president and opened the Elysee Palace door for Emmanuel Macron.
A consummate political insider who was prime minister under Nicolas Sarkozy’s presidency, Fillon was the comfortable frontrunner in the election race when the allegations surfaced. He denied wrongdoing, resisted party pressure to pull his candidacy, and was eliminated in the first round of the vote. Investigators estimate Penelope Fillon received 1 million euros from her husband’s office over a three decade period from the early 1980s to 2013.
