A clerk of the judicial court of Puy-en-Velay (Puy-de-Dôme) prosecuted for moral harassment was sentenced this Thursday by the criminal court of Clermont-Ferrand (Puy-de-Dôme) this Monday.

He was given a four-month suspended prison sentence, says

La Montagne

.

The victim of this 65-year-old man is a young judge whom he attacked between November 2018 and April 2019.

The sexagenarian spoke of the "aesthetic emotion" that the magistrate inspired in him.

She spoke of “embarrassing behavior”, “inappropriate smiles” and “insistent looks”.

On a daily basis, the young woman had ended up doing everything not to meet the officer of justice at their place of work.

The defendant also sent letters combining apologies and attempts at seduction.

At the hearing, he assured that he had no bad intentions.

His lawyer described "the clumsiness of a man in love".

The clerk currently stationed in the southwest is now prohibited from contacting his victim.

In the grip of erotomaniac delusions, he must also continue to take care of himself.
