Rape within a drug addict couple: he gets 5 years in prison

It is a case which takes place in a context of extreme drug addiction within a couple. Everything goes: heroin, cocaine, ketamine, ecstasy in addition to alcohol. Sébastien (37 years old) and Charlotte (assumed first name) have only been a couple since 2022. A relationship made up of ruptures, notably because of the prison sentences he suffered with 13 convictions, and reconciliations. As of May 31, they are in a separation phase. “ She threw me in the trash » dira-t-il « I wanted my things and my dog ​​back, I called him many times, with no answer. So, I went to her house. She opened the door for me, and I saw that she was with another guy, so yes, I saw red and punched her. » Which earned him charges of home invasion, harassment and assault.

A sexual animal

But there is something even more serious. In September, it seems that the couple has reconciled, since they are in bed together one morning. The day before, they had celebrated the birthday of one of them by consuming enormous quantities of narcotics: 4 grams of ketamine and 9 ecstasy pills, and also drank quite a bit. Charlotte says “ I woke up with a bottle stuck in my genitals. I told him he raped me » She dug in barefoot and half-dressed, and contacted the police directly. She was then taken to hospital, where serious genital injuries were noted.

Before the court where he appeared detained, Sébastien obviously had a completely different version. “ When she’s drunk, she’s a sexual animal. I have also rejected his desires several times. She was the one who asked me to make love to her. I then played a little game with the bottle, which we had already done several times. I never forced her, I am against rape. It’s inhumane to rape someone, I know the consequences. When she said she was in pain, I stopped immediately. For me, she was no longer under the influence, but when she went under, I understood that she was still in the west ».

Beautiful words

But Mr. Seret, public prosecutor, gave no credence to his words. After consuming a huge amount of drugs and alcohol, she was bound to still be under the influence at 7am. There is her half-naked escape, her direct complaint to the police and the genital lesions, a significant context of rape. He often mistreats her, insulting her all over the place, calling her a tramp, the mildest word of the insults he commonly addressed to her. He recalled that he had already been convicted several times for beating his companions. This is why he asked for six years in prison.

For the defense, who demanded his acquittal, it is a very vague case which poses many unanswered questions. He always said he was against rape “I have always admitted my stupidities, but here, I did not rape her” Sébastien added

Beautiful words, but in vain. The court considered the charges established and sentenced him to 5 years in prison.
