‘I didn’t even know this type of attack existed’: more than 200 women allege drugging by senior French civil servant​

An investigating judge is examining allegations that, over a nine-year period, dozens of women interviewed for jobs by a senior civil servant, Christian Nègre, were offered coffees or teas by him that had been mixed with a powerful and illegal diuretic, which he knew would make them need to urinate.

Nègre often suggested continuing the interviews outside, on lengthy strolls far from toilets, the women say. Many of the women recall struggling with the need to go to the toilet and feeling increasingly ill. Some, in desperation, say they urinated in public, or didn’t reach a bathroom in time, wetting their clothes. Some felt a sense of shame and failure that has had an impact on their lives, they say.

“At the time, I didn’t even know this type of attack existed,” Delezenne said.

The alleged assaults came to light in 2018, after a colleague reported Nègre allegedly attempting to photograph the legs of a senior official, prompting police to open an investigation. Officers found a computer spreadsheet titled “Experiments”, where he had allegedly noted the times of druggings and the women’s reactions.

Time to shut down the internet. We've now seen everything.

If he's guiktyvas alleged, may he be charged, convicted and sentenced for every single victim he violated.

He didn't think he'd ever be caught...

Fortunately he did write it all down though, he's going to be easier to convict. MOO
