Overview
- Paris judges found Joël Guerriau guilty of administering a judgment‑altering substance with intent to commit rape or sexual assault, as well as illegal narcotics possession.
- Hospital tests showed Sandrine Josso had ingested a dose of MDMA well above typical recreational levels that impaired her judgment and physical control.
- Prosecutors presented searches from the month before the incident linking drugs and rape, including queries about ecstasy, GHB, effects, and points of sale.
- Reports describe a custodial sentence with most of the four‑year term suspended and 18 months to serve, though accounts differ on damages, an electoral ban, therapy requirements, and exact totals; he remains free pending appeal.
- Guerriau denied intent, claiming he accidentally used a glass containing leftover powder, a defense the court rejected, while Josso has since taken a public role on drug‑facilitated assault in parliament.
