The man, aged 37, was to be presented to a liberty and detention judge on Friday evening. This magistrate had to rule on the request for placement in pre-trial detention presented by the prosecution.
A judicial investigation was opened by the Bobigny public prosecutor's office. “If this nurse has been working in the pediatric emergency room for seven or eight years, we wonder whether there have not been other victims. Judicial information will allow us to investigate whether it is a predator.” underlined Alexandre Lobry, lawyer for the teenager, specifying that she was “in a state of astonishment”.
The nurse was arrested Tuesday evening around 7:00 p.m. as he arrived to take his shift at the Assistance publique – Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) establishment. He is suspected of having, the previous night, entered the room of a 15-year-old girl hospitalized in the structure.
“On Sunday, the respondent was very tactile with my client, he allowed himself to touch her, she alerted the health personnel”in vain, assured Me Lobry. Then “on Monday evening, the nurse entered the young girl's room, took off her glasses and took her cell phone to put the flash in her face, in order to force oral sex on her”he said.
In the hours following the incident, the victim suffered a panic attack, which alerted medical teams who then called the police.
