the 20-year-old who accused the elected Maxime Cochard was found dead

Guillaume T. seems to have ended his life in his dorm room. If the causes of the suicide are not clearly expressed, this death arouses a legitimate emotion.

Guillaume T. died Tuesday, February 9, 2021. On January 21, 2021, on Twitter, the 20-year-old student accused the Parisian elected Maxime Cochard and his companion of assaulting him. Helped by the wave of MeToo Gay testimonials, the young man had told his own story. He explained to the Parisian: "My parents left when I was in senior year. I lived alone with my big sister in Metz with whom I had a conflicting relationship", the student recounted. "I was very lonely. I was discovering my homosexuality. I was in search of myself. I had no money. I slept with them. There was a form of hold. They had moral ascendancy. on me. They were important people to me. I was in a vulnerable position. "

This message had prompted the PCF to ask the elected to withdraw from the Council of Paris. The elected official pleads for consensual relations and has hired a lawyer for defamation.

According to the president of the University of Nanterre where the young man was studying, the teaching staff and the students are in shock, and no one would have suspected the possibility of such an act. The investigation must determine the causes of death, in the absence of a word of explanation from the deceased. In the student community, some link this to the questioning of his status as an alleged victim. "This is why I am so committed to supporting the victims, this is why it is so important to believe them and listen to them" claims a post on Facebook. A message that invites us to rethink, individually and collectively, our way of welcoming the words of presumed victims.
