In the 80s in France, everyone knew his face and his name. The story he told moved President François Mitterrand so much that he partially pardoned him. At that time, Luc Tangorre was considered by many in public opinion to be the victim of a miscarriage of justice. He had been convicted in 1983 for a series of rapes committed in Marseille. And he had managed to convince many French people and many personalities such as Françoise Sagan, Marguerite Duras, and the historian Pierre Vidal-Naquet of his innocence. But since then, the man was found guilty in 1992 of the rape of two American students, and of sexual assault on minors, on Thursday, September 12. He still swears that he is innocent. This episode of Code source is told by Louise Colcombet from the Police Justice department of Le Parisien.
