This Monday, November 4, 2024, two people, including a former reality TV candidate, were arrested in the Paris region for pimping.
He is known under the name Quentin R. and had participated in the show “Anges”, on NRJ 12. This Monday, the reality TV candidate and his 29-year-old wife were arrested at their home in Sainte-Geneviève-des-Bois (Essonne) and then placed in police custody for “aggravated pimping in an organized gang”according to information from Parisian.
The couple in turmoil
In 2019, Quentin R. appeared on the screen in the famous show “Les Anges de la television vérité” for the eleventh season. But at the beginning of November 2024, he and his wife, a 29-year-old Brazilian called Marika N., were accused of pimping. The couple attracted women engaged in prostitution, indicates the daily.
More precisely, Quentin R., also known as Kentin, “would have used his notoriety, acquired since his participation in 2019 on the show ‘Les Anges’ to give these women confidence”relate The Parisian.
But the couple allegedly did much more, going so far as to manage nearly twenty prostitution ads on a well-known site called Sexmodel. As for profits, half of the winnings went to them. Quentin R. and Marika N. were confused by investigators thanks to their IP addresses for the ads, but also their bank accounts which show large inflows of money from known women “as being victims of prostitution, or pimps”.
It was proven that two women were prostitutes in apartments rented by the couple on Airbnb or Booking.
Telephone tapping also confirmed the investigators’ suspicions, notably with calls received where Quentin R was asked. “how many Brazilian women he had available with a residence permit”.
For now, “the investigation is currently underway and police custody can last for 96 hours”said the prosecution. Note that the two suspects are already known to the police.
