“Not all rape victims become perpetrators, fortunately, but certain experiences influence the development of sexuality.” This sentence from expert psychologist Annabelle Montagne, spoken this Tuesday morning, was not intended for Ludovick B. but it also applies perfectly to his case. As with those of around ten accused since the start of this Mazan rape trial. Nearly a quarter of them say they were victims of sexual acts in their younger years.
An edifying ratio, which clearly demonstrates the influence that the actions suffered can have on the construction of certain future adults. Since the start of the week, Cédric G. has revealed that he was raped by an uncle when he was a teenager. And Romain V. spoke about the monstrous education of his parents, who notably brought a priest friend to their home, who slept with the children, and was able to impose sexual assault on them. In addition to a stranger, who allegedly forced him to perform fellatio in a vacant lot when he was 7 years old.
It was his family doctor who pushed him to reveal what he had suffered.
Ludovick B. was 11 or 12 years old when he crossed paths with Fabrice Motch. The latter was the father of a friend and the captain of the station where he was a young firefighter. A man of imposing stature who subjected her to rape at his home in Yvelines. Some time later, the one that the press then nicknamed “the black knight” was sentenced to 15 years in prison for a series of assaults under chemical control. Then to life imprisonment for the murder of his mistress's husband.
Ludovick B. had never filed a complaint. It was his family doctor who pushed him to reveal what he had suffered. He then filed a complaint and the case is ongoing, in the hands of the Versailles public prosecutor's office. “I think this kid was massacred by Fabrice Motch, and he wasn't the only one, Dr Pierre Godon came to testify. When we couldn't protect, it was my duty to testify. He wouldn't be here today if he hadn't met him.”
