"I always told him that I was ready to forgive him"
Coline Rojtman thus returned to the long process through which she went before her complaint was revealed in the media: "If I am there, it is because I expected nothing more from him. I understood that he was not able to answer my request for recognition of the facts. It is always in a paradox love and suffering. I have reached out dozens and dozens of times to my father in private. "
"I always told him that I was ready to forgive him. Besides, he asked me for forgiveness", explains Coline Rojtman. "There, he denies the facts as a whole, but that is not the reality. He has trouble assuming. (…) He is still my father and I love him. It is not because 'we do monstrous things that we are a monster. "

Accompanied by her lawyer, Me Karine Shebabo, Coline Rojtman also confided in the media treatment of these accusations against her father Richard Berry.

And we have to come here to defend a word." Coline Rojtman wanted to denounce this "instability" attributed to him: "It's one more assault. (…) It's hard for the person to confess their guilt. So it's denial first and then discredit the person accusing you." Her lawyer, meanwhile, wished to point out that there is a file with "8 hours of hearing from the juvenile brigade is not nothing. So we have more than just a word."
