--- "Arnould first filed the complaint against Depardeiu in 2018. She then brought criminal charges in 2020, alleging Depardieu twice raped and assaulted her at his Paris home in August 2018."

Any reflections on the two-year hiatus between "complaint" in 2018, and "criminal charges" in 2020? One would think the criminal investigation would have ensued "toute suite!"

In this day and age of rape kits and DNA evidence and forensic science, something seems missing in the story.

Arnould alleges that Depardieu, a friend of her father’s, raped her on two separate occasions in the summer of 2018 when she had visited his Parisian home to ask for advice.

Twice? OK, liar.

He needs to change his name to Mohamed bin Muhammed and convert to Islam asap. Rape is just fine for Muslims.

Twice? What, you don’t avoid someone like the plague after they’ve raped you once?

Pretty hard to make profound judgement on this with scant detail

Interesting to note that GP was and is an extremely heavy drinker.

So wait.....69? A 69 year old guy did this according to her?

Twice?

And she was 22 at the time?

I’m having a hard time buying this.

He has since immigrated to Russia and is a Russian citizen.

OK, help me out here. She claims he raped her two SEPERATE times when she went to his house.

WHY would anyone go back a second time?

Sacré bleu!

He is a massive guy, but so old, fat, and drunk that maybe he was the one who was raped.
