Child abuse via livestream: pedophile in court!
Paris - A 59-year-old Frenchman is alleged to have ordered hundreds of rapes of girls in the Philippines and followed them directly on his computer via livestream.

He is accused of aiding and abetting the rape of minors, sexual harassment and aiding and abetting human trafficking, according to the public prosecutor's office.
The trial against the animated film artist, who is well-known in France, is being held at a Paris jury court. The man is facing life imprisonment.
The accused's defense lawyer, Jane Peissel, told BFMTV that her client had confessed to all the terrible acts he was accused of, which he had commissioned via the Internet. Investigators found films of the girls on the man's cell phones and computers. Despite all investigations, the victims could not be identified.
The accused is said to have transferred a total of around 50,000 euros to the Philippines since 2016, presumably to pay women to abuse young girls aged between 5 and 15 on his instructions in front of a camera, reported France Info.
The accused himself, who described himself as a "real pedophile" during the interrogation, spoke of 10,000 euros with which he had paid at least 24 women for the acts of abuse, which he viewed via WhatsApp or Skype.
