Overview

  • Authorities say the charges stem from two distinct alleged sexual assaults along with a series of physical abuse accusations by his former partner.
  • The accuser has remained under protective measures including a restraining order, electronic bracelet, curfew and movement reporting requirements imposed in December 2023.
  • Investigators reviewed digital communications, photos and witness accounts during a recent incident probatoire stage.
  • Guede rejected the expedited procedure, insisting on proving his innocence during the full trial scheduled for November 4.
  • The case has drawn strong attention due to Guede’s 2008 conviction for the murder of Meredith Kercher.
