Assu 2000 CEO Jacques Bouthier jailed for exploitation and rape of minors
One of the largest fortunes in France has been placed since Saturday in pre-trial detention, indicted for trafficking in minor human beings, rape of minors, and participation in a criminal association with a view to committing kidnapping or kidnapping in an organized gang.
After a thorough investigation that mobilized a good part of the staff of the Brigade de Protection des Mineurs (BPM) of the Parisian PJ, it is a whole system that has been discovered by the police. According to RTL information, a 22-year-old young woman presented herself to the Paris police officers last March. She explained to them that for 5 years she had been a "captive" of a wealthy man, who had been housing her in one of his apartments and repeatedly raped her. Even worse, when, according to her, she was becoming "too old for him", the young woman was forced to find a "replacement" to take over. This is how a 14-year-old girl was then allegedly accommodated in this apartment.
The complainant managed to film the CEO and the 14-year-old girl together in a bed. This video was handed over to investigators.
The story doesn't end there. While the CEO is aware of the existence of this video, he will try to silence the complainant. The justice suspects him of having wanted to set up a team to kidnap the young woman, seize the video, and force her to leave France. For this, the septuagenarian allegedly solicited his wife, two employees of his company, a young woman close to the complainant, as well as a former gendarme member of the GIGN.
All five were arrested last week, and indicted on Saturday for "failure to report sexual assault on a minor, and participation in a criminal association with a view to committing kidnapping or kidnapping in an organized gang". They have also been placed in pre-trial detention, the Paris Prosecutor's Office confirmed to RTL. Their respective roles and objectives are still to be determined at this stage.
A system that had been repeating itself for many years
According to our information, investigators have also traced the man's past. They discovered the existence of at least 7 young women, minors or young adults, who succeeded each other in this apartment. The investigation made it possible to determine that these were young girls with similar profiles: unemployed or runaway, at a break with their family or society.
Still the same mechanism in place, once they reached their twenties, the CEO said he was uninterested in them and asked them to go find a younger girl to take their place in the apartment.
How can someone, being held against their will, be forced to go “find another” for the same person who is holding you captive? Isn’t that like Andy Dufresne escaping prison to go find another innocent banker person, kidnap them, drag them back through the 5 football fields of sewage, up the wall, through the poster with fuzzy britches on it, just to leave them their against their will...so the warden is happy?
I mean I thought Andy was a good person? He..no she..is as bad as the warden now.
Don't be so hard and judgmental on her. You don't know know what it's like to be totally mind fucked. For 5 years straight...at least at the end she did the right thing.
Didn’t feel I was being hard on her. It’s confusing. I assume it’s a fear control situation. Some folks are easily controlled. Some seem like they can’t be broken. But I would think, when she was kidnapping an innocent child. And hearing her screams as she was now being raped. Something would have kicked in. It’s like look, now it’s her turn, and I’m free.
Yeah I’m glad she told the cops. Eventually.
I'm glad she told the cops too. How many were there before her? No one else went to the police....js
And that she found good ones that weren't on that sick-o's payroll.
sadly or lived to tell their tale :'(
To be honest these poor victims are rarely 'free' they live with the trauma and fear for years, feeling inadequate and loath themselves for what they have done and what they have not done. So the fact she actually did something is a miracle in itself and a credit to her.
Probably threatened to kill them instead of letting them go. They were owned and locked up like animals from young impressionable ages. He probably had total fear control over them. God knows what he did to them.
she had been totally controlled and dominated for the past 5 years, she would have been petrified, I assume, to not comply.
She should get all the credit for actually videoing and getting the evidence, then actually going to the authorities with the proof.
We have been seeing this sort of manipulation for years now, how can people still not know that fear and threats of their captives power and authority is what makes these 'girls' comply? (they were girls when captured)
