“There was no more time to lose. »
Nearly thirty-five years after the alleged events,
Judith Godrèche
decided to denounce in the media the “sexual abuse” that Benoît Jacquot allegedly subjected her to as a teenager.
After the opening of the investigation into rape of a minor targeting the director Benoît Jacquot, the complaint filed against Jacques Doillon and the revealing interview granted on France Inter, the actress was the guest of Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine's show this Thursday, February 8.

“A child does not have the power to consent [...] This is someone who takes you in all kinds of ways. This person had a relationship with sexuality that was twisted and I found myself being his sexual toy
,” explains the actress.
Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine then completes these remarks by detailing precisely the abuse suffered by Judith Godrèche: a sex toy that he attached to the bars of a mezzanine, that he whipped on the back, to which he told that she had to enjoy fifteen times on his fifteenth birthday.

“I’m still afraid of him”
“I should have told my daughter not to watch the show
,” declared the guest with a stifled laugh in reaction to this statement.
Indeed, Judith Godrèche has an 18-year-old daughter, named Tess Barthélemy, whom she had with the actor Maurice Barthélemy.
But the presenter does not take offense and continues:
“Benoît Jacquot who told you during the filming of Mendiants in 1988 that he was a pervert.
But you didn't know what a pervert was
.
“Today I am still afraid, afraid of him
,” she articulates with difficulty.
“You know, a child who has been afraid is afraid all his life.”
