A Paris appeals court reduced the prison sentences of Naim Boudaoud and Azim Epsirkhanov from 16 years to six and seven years respectively. Both men were accused of driving Anzorov and helping him procure weapons before the attack.

Brahim Chnina, the father of a girl who falsely claimed Paty had asked Muslim students to leave his classroom before showing caricatures, had his sentence reduced from 13 years to 10 years. His daughter was not actually in the classroom at the time and later apologized to the teacher's family.

The appeals court left the 15-year prison term for Abdelhakim Sefrioui, a French-Moroccan Islamist activist, untouched. Sefrioui was convicted of organizing a hate campaign online against Paty and was sentenced for criminal association with a terrorist group.

Paty used cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad from Charlie Hebdo as part of an ethics class to discuss freedom of expression laws in France. He told students beforehand they were not obliged to look at the cartoons if they did not want to.

The quartet were among seven men and one woman found guilty in 2024 of contributing to the climate of hatred that led to the beheading. Paty has become a free-speech icon in France, with several schools now named after him.
