Jean-Marc Morandini heads to a minor corruption trial: Femme Actuelle Le MAG

When he thought he had gotten rid of justice, Jean-Marc Morandini may well face it again. Indeed, according to information from Parisian, the Paris public prosecutor's office requested, on April 3, 2020, the referral of the television host to the Criminal Court for acts of corruption of a minor over 15 years old. Facts that have always been challenged by Jean-Marc Morandini. The 55-year-old presenter is implicated in two cases. The first dates back to 2013. It was the father of a teenager, then aged 15, who appeared before the investigators of the juvenile protection brigade, reporting that the famous host would have had inappropriate exchanges with his son. He notably mentioned a message in which Jean-Marc Morandini imagined him giving him fellatio. While no complaint had been filed at the time, but in 2016, the adolescent changed his mind following an investigation published in The Inrocks, denouncing the more than doubtful conditions of certain castings organized by the host.

Jean-Marc Morandini's lawyer does not understand this decision

The case against Jean-Marc Morandini has been enriched by a second complaint. Another young man is said to have been forced to strip naked during a casting for a film produced by Jean-Marc Morandini. While all the other candidates before him would have agreed to do so, he does so, but will eventually leave the stage when the host asks him to reproduce a masturbation scene from the film. For its part, the respondent always assured that he did not know the age of the first complainant and that he did not remember the casting with the second complainant. But it is the latter that concerns justice since since these facts, he would have plunged into depression and anorexia. This is why the Paris Prosecutor's Office has decided to refer Jean-Marc Morandini to justice. An incomprehensible decision for Me Corinne Dreyfus-Schmidt, one of her lawyers. "This indictment is empty and does not develop any argument on the qualifications used. It is all the more surprising that he intervenes while several of our requests for deeds are in progress. "
