Gerard Depardieu Sexual Assault Complaint Dismissed by French Prosecutors Due to Statute of Limitations
French prosecutors have dismissed the complaint filed by French actor Hélène Darras alleging that Gerard Depardieu sexually assaulted her in 2007.
Spanish journalist Ruth Baza also said she had filed an official complaint against the actor in Spain after being allegedly assaulted during interview in Paris in 1995, which is beyond the 20-year statute of limitation in France. The prosecutors’ office added that besides Arnould, “there are no other women, to this day, whose testimonies as part of this investigation has given new elements to the judge.” Depardieu has not been convicted in connection to any of the allegations and denies any wrongdoing. The complaint filed by Darras was first reported by France 2, the French public broadcaster, in a Dec. 7 bombshell documentary called “Complement d’Enquete: the Downfall of an Ogre.”
