A betrayed friendship and a broken child. This is essentially the summary of this sad story. A man was indicted on November 6 in Paris for “rape of a minor” before being imprisoned. This 43-year-old caregiver is suspected of having, over many months, in the capital, committed sexual violence on a little girl, aged 10, while he was looking after her as a service to her parents.
The case began on June 22, when the father and mother of this little girl walked through the door of a district police station. They denounce acts of child abuse committed against their child by a family friend. This helpful friend had offered to watch their daughter every Wednesday afternoon while they were at work. He would have taken advantage of these moments, alone together, to satisfy his urges.
In front of the police, the young victim will recount the repeated rapes she suffered when she went to this man's house. Investigators from the minor protection brigade are responsible for carrying out the investigations.
The threats concluded each attack: the forty-year-old forbade him to recount this abuse. He also gives her gifts. But these are still a means of continuing his misdeeds. “She says that her attacker gave her a phone and a connected watch,” reveals a source close to the case. He had installed an application on this device to be able to film it and listen to it remotely. »
Officials retrieve the information contained in this smartphone. They discovered inappropriate messages sent to the child by the suspect. On some, he even goes so far as to write to her that he wants to marry her and that she becomes the mother of his children.
On November 4, the forty-year-old was arrested at his home in the 18th arrondissement. The police discovered an altar decorated with religious icons, but also with photos and objects belonging to the little girl. Thanks to the search and the exploitation of the computer equipment, the investigators noted that the man regularly consulted child pornography files.
He is placed in police custody in the premises of the PJ, Porte de Clichy. During the hearings, this tattooed man denies the facts of rape and remote spying on the victim. He barely admitted to having equipped the little one with this watch and this phone to monitor her…
