•Franck Louis-Victor is accused of assaulting his wife at their Michigan home The Frenchman is the CEO of Ford Next LLC and VP of new business platforms •He pled not guilty on Monday and was freed on a $25,000 bond
A top Ford executive has been arrested after he allegedly tried to set his wife's designer purses on fire with a butane torch and physically assaulted her during a domestic dispute.
Franck Louis-Victor is accused of slapping, headbutting and hitting his wife with a Nest Hub device after he threatened to burn two of her Hermès purses, each valued at $10,000.
The 50-year-old was taken into custody at his $830,000 home in Bloomfield Township, , on Saturday.
Police say that after his wife took the purses away, Louis-Victor told her he would hurt her if he couldn't burn the purses. The wife was not named by cops.
Louis-Victor was arrested after he made statements to police that matched his wife's claims, according to officials.
She was reportedly taken to the hospital after the confrontation and treated for a laceration under her eye.
Originally from France, Louis-Victor worked at car manufacturer Renault before moving to Ford in 2021.
He now serves as the CEO of Ford Next LLC and vice president of new business platforms.
Ford Next is in charge of developing and fostering new businesses under the Ford umbrella.
According to the company's website: 'As the automotive ecosystem evolves, Ford Next focuses on ways to offer new, technology-forward customer experiences in various domains such as energy, supply chain, iOT, and distribution.'
Louis-Victor was arraigned on Monday with bond set at a $25,000.
He pled not guilty and is being held in Oakland County jail, per court records.
The exec faces felony charges of arson and assault with a dangerous weapon.

He could have gotten away with burning the purses because they are community property and he basically owns them. Getting physically violent with a woman is the direct path to hell right here on earth. If you have to hit a woman it better be self defense. Personally I would not do it. I am old fashioned and besides that I don’t like hitting people.
“assault with a dangerous weapon”
I wonder if that was his thick skull or the electronic gadget?
Hermès purses and Google nest devices.
The combination must have driven them mad.
The burning, yes. Actually he could just pick one and burn it, at least half of the two purses are his. :)
Self defense, yes. Because if they are going to act like a man and attack a man, i see that as them identifying as a man, so I’m being attacked by a man at that point. If they want to be like men they will be treated as one. Because they aren’t acting like women.
Burning the purses may be legal but it is really bad PR for Ford—makes it look like they are hiring kooks at senior levels.
Maybe that is because they are hiring kooks at senior levels!
Michigan again?
Florida Man is starting to have self doubts.
July 9, 2023 Michigan headline thread here:
Cops are called to Michigan GOP gathering as brawl breaks out over locked room with one Republican leader saying another ‘kicked me in my balls’
Mark Zimmerman, a pro-life sidewalk counselor, told Live Action News that his tibia was fractured, and he is using a wheelchair until he has surgery to place pins and screws in his leg.
Zimmerman said he frequently prays with other pro-lifers outside the Women’s Center of Saginaw, an abortion facility. On Friday, he said 88-year-old abortionist Theodore Roummel ran over him twice with his vehicle.
Imagine there is much stress among Ford executives. People must be held accountable for the dismal EV sales and the losses being incurred on the huge EV research and capital investments. The blame game is in full swing and will be followed by the ceremonial firing of sacrificial executives. Ford will become totally dependent on government subsidies within five years. Another win for the lunatic Left and those that want to destroy America.
I give this marriage 3 more months; 6 tops.

After that he got really wild and violent.
The course of true love never runs smooth.
:
Maybe one of the TV reality shows can settle it.
Recent case....
“DNA Shows Boyfriend Had Five Children With Five Different Women But Won’t Admit it To Girlfriend. Watch after this word about insurance bundles.”
“Florida Man is starting to have self doubts.”
Florida Man throws juvenile alligators through drive-thru windows.
He needs to keep things in perspective and drop this pity party crap.
We need you Florida Man.
LOL
I heard the followup was the alligators ate the french fries and died.
Burning $20k worth of purses at a house only valued at $830k?
Detroit real estate will never recover obviously.
Ok, now that was funny.
Who among us has not been triggered by Hermes purses? I know I have. In this case I will defer to the Pope who said “Who am I to judge”?
Hermes purses are made to be fireproof. If you drop $10,000 on a purse your wallet is on fire and you need the fireproof purse to keep it from spreading.
Hey buddy
Just send those bags to Franklin tn
I’ll get lots of “hanging out” as the rib calls it for two of those puppies
“Google Nest Hub device”
Is there an English translation for that?
Yeah, I just hate it when my husband takes a torch to my $10,000 purses.
