Overview
- Investigators say a spreadsheet titled “P Experiments” on Christian Nègre’s computer logged dates, doses, reactions and photos tied to alleged diuretic spikings.
- Allegations span roughly nine years and now involve more than 240 identified women, with the tally reported to have more than tripled over the past two years of inquiry.
- Nègre was indicted in 2019 on charges including aggravated administration of a harmful substance and sexual assault by abuse of authority, was dismissed from public service, and continues to work in the private sector.
- The probe began after a 2018 complaint that he tried to photograph a senior official’s legs, prompting searches that uncovered the files.
- Women describe being taken on walking interviews far from toilets and forced to urinate in public, with lawyers calling it deliberate humiliation; in 2023 a judge ordered the state to compensate seven alleged victims.
