In October 2016, Flavie Flament had accused in a book,
La consolation
, the photographer David Hamilton of having attacked her while she posed for him.
The facts, then prescribed, would have taken place in 1987, in Cap d'Agde (Hérault) when the young girl was 13 years old.
A feeling of anger
“When I had the misfortune of meeting him, I was 13 years old. He was a star. I myself was a kind of kid who said to myself “I'm going to meet someone world famous, the photographer of young girls in flowers”. “It’s all a masquerade, a decorum
,” thunders the former TF1 presenter, who denounces in these cases “
the complacency of parents, of society”
.
Subsequently, Flavie Flament co-chaired a mission to change the law on the statute of limitations for sexual crimes against minors.
The law has evolved in this direction, going from twenty to thirty years after the victim's majority.
Accused by four women, David Hamilton has always denied any guilt.
He was found dead in November 2016. The theory of suicide was favored.
“I was immensely angry when we found him dead
,” remembers Flavie Flament on TMC.
He wasn’t even able to face justice.”
