Gérard Depardieu, a French actor, was accused of rape and sexual assault by a woman to whom he was said to be offering professional guidance.
A unnamed woman, aged 22, filed a criminal complaint against Depardieu, 69, claiming he sexually assaulted her on August 7 and August 13, Holland-based news agency BNO News reports, citing French officials and sources speaking to Le Parisien newspaper.
I regret the public nature of this process which poses a major prejudice to Gerard Depardieu, whose innocence I am convinced will be [recognized], Depardieus lawyer Herve Termime told AFP News.
The lawyer noted that Depardieu absolutely denies any attack, any rape.
Termimes office did not immediately respond to PEOPLEs request for comment.

Uh....excuse me...but why did she go back for seconds if the first time was so bad?
And he was so good in “Ronin” too. Oh, wait...
Just hope he hadn’t recently disembarked from an aircraft of any type.
She had to be aware of his ‘doggish’ reputation before she made any contact. This doesn’t absolve him from anything violent or extremely dangerous of course, but if she’s talking about basic flirting behavior, well this is Gerard Depardieu we’re talking about.
He admits himself that he drinks at least two bottles of wine each day. He has been wealthy, famous and fawned over for decades, allowed, perhaps even encouraged to live in a hedonistic manner.
Didn’t he become a Russian citizen to escape French taxes?
They’re all rapists Jim
Gotta love #metoo
It is taking down a HECK of a lot more liberals than conservatives (Hollywood — go figure, right?)
In the meantime, in Real Corporate America guys are distancing themselves from women who “want to be equal except when they don’t.” Men are asking to be assigned away from women, not be forced to have women as mentees, no women in the direct reporting line, anything to keep legal distance.
Women are making themselves pariahs since no man DARES even speak to a woman in fear of a lawsuit — 20 OR 30 YEARS down the road.
Liberalism always bites itself in the butt.
In the meantime — popcorn, garcon.
it would appear golddiggers and bunnyboilers aren’t exclusive to the USA
One of my sons works for a large corp.
Years ago he told me that they cannot say anything to woman as simple as, “Nice dress!”.
Lordy,am I glad I’m retired-—and I’m a woman.
I thought he’d admitted to rape many years ago.
That was a mistranslation.
"Assister" doesn't mean "to assist" or "to participate in" but "to witness" or "to be present at."
Of course if somebody was "present at" several rapes, people start to wonder.
Uh....excuse me...but why did she go back for seconds if the first time was so bad?
Was he trying to rape her or eat her ?
Not that they a woman has *ever* been in danger...
I wouldn’t call him a great actor.
The poor slut victim was so traumatized that after the first rape, she went back a week later...
That was my thought exactly.
IIRC, he has a history of such behavior.
