Public insults and drunk driving

[edit]

In March 2011, he spoke on French TV about two nights he spent in police custody. During his testimony, he called the policemen from these nights "odious cops". He also talked about all policemen in general and used the terms "IQ of a dead octopus" or "morons, thugs in uniform, scum who have fallen to the good side". The Minister of the Interior (France) filed a complaint, and Bedos was convicted in 2012 to a 2000 euros fine by the Paris criminal court for public insults towards the police.[8] In 2014, he was sentenced to three months in prison and a 750 euro fine for drunk driving, insulting and threatening to kill police officers after falling off his scooter.[9]

Conviction for sexual assault

[edit]

In 2023, he was released from police custody for sexual assault on a 25 years old woman in a nightclub.[10] He was also summoned to court for sexual harassment committed in 2018. His trial is scheduled for 26 September 2024.[11] On 22 October 2024, he was sentenced to 1 year in jail. The actor kept denying being a sexual agressor but talked instead of an "onerous friendliness" mixed with alcoholism. He is the first actor in France actually convicted to jail after a sexual offenses, and it might help the fight against sexism and sexual violence.[12]
