The newspaper The Parisian revealed that François Durpaire, consultant at BFM TV, was indicted for raping his ex-girlfriend on Thursday, September 1. After his indictment, the 51-year-old man was indicted for rape and placed under judicial supervision. The facts would date back to 2011 and would have occurred in the apartment of the historian, in the 11th arrondissement of the capital. Moreover, a financial agreement of 60,000 euros would have been concluded to bury this story forever. In the end, the complainant decided to finally file a complaint.
Monday, September 5, the lawyer for the specialist in the United States, Dorothée Bisaccia-Bernstein was present on the set of Do not touch My TV on C8. “I have come to explain to you that in the current system when a personality is accused by a plaintiff it is lose-lose either he answers, and he will not answer the judge and it will be detrimental for him because justice will go to him hold it against it either he comes, he responds and finds himself in an entertainment program. And this is not his place, nor that of the people involved … “she said in front of Cyril Hanouna, taken aback after hearing these words.
“It has nothing to do. We are not just an entertainment show. We are a magazine (…) You come, you say anything. You have to work before coming to a show. There you come with your hands in your pockets…”he continued, cropping his guest. “We are not here to have a debate on ‘is he guilty or not’. We are not in a court here”he added. “Viewers would like to know what happened?”
The exchange subsequently calmed down!
