Nicolas Bedos Sentenced to One Year in Prison for Sexual Assault

The French actor-director plans to appeal his conviction for assaults on two women in 2023, while being acquitted of a 2018 harassment charge.

Nicolas Bedos received a one-year prison sentence, with six months suspended, for sexually assaulting two women in 2023.
The court mandated Bedos to undergo treatment and barred him from contacting the victims.
He was acquitted of a 2018 sexual harassment charge due to insufficient evidence.
Bedos' defense cited alcohol-induced memory loss, but the court deemed it an aggravating factor.
His lawyer announced plans to appeal, criticizing the sentence's severity as unprecedented and unjust.
