She had not yet spoken publicly since the disclosure of her complaint. The writer Florence Porcel, who accuses the former TF1 star Patrick Poivre d’Arvor of rape, which he categorically rejects, says he wishes, in interviews with the Parisian and in the magazine It, that he “Answer for his actions” before the court.
Last month, The Parisian revealed the writer’s complaint against the former star news anchor, accusing him of an unwanted sexual intercourse in 2004 and of having imposed a fellatio in 2009. The Nanterre prosecutor’s office had confirmed in the wake of having opened a preliminary investigation.
If PPDA had immediately spoken to reject these accusations “Lies”, that he had qualified through his lawyer then on the set of the program “Quotidien” of the TMC channel, of “Slanderous denunciation”.
In an interview with The Parisian, and posted online Monday, she says she does not want to react to PPDA statements and trust justice. “The investigation will establish the facts”, she assures, saying to wish that “Patrick Poivre d’Arvor be tried for his actions”.
“I want him to stop making victims”
“This man stole my sentimental, love, sexual life from me. (…) I want him to stop making victims. And that he answer for his acts before an assize court ”, she also confided in an interview with It, published the same day on the website of the weekly.
Asked about the testimonies of other women mentioned in recent weeks in the press, she also told It that she would like “That the investigation proves that this man was in an entire system of predation, installed for decades, perhaps covered by his hierarchy”.
The Nanterre public prosecutor’s office, which heads the investigation for rapes targeting the former presenter of the TF1 television news, indicated on Tuesday having received two other testimonies of facts “Which could be qualified as rape”, confirming information from World.
For his part, the famous journalist has denied the accusations of the writer, “Absurd and above all false” according to him, saying to himself last month “Revolted by the way in which one seeks to instrumentalize to ensure the promotion of a novel”. “I have never consented, accepted a relationship that would not be consented, that would be forced whether it be sentimental or sexual”, he had also provided in the show “Quotidien”.
