Suicide on premiere day. Accuser of Gerard Depardieu's sexual misconduct found dead

As reported by French media, Emmanuelle Debever passed away on December 7. Police reports reveal that the 60-year-old actress died by suicide, jumping into the Seine. The timing of her death coincides with the television premiere of a documentary by France 2 channel. This documentary titled, "Gerard Depardieu: The Fall of The Ogre," features her allegations against the iconic figure of French cinema.

A few years ago, Debever confessed via social media that Depardieu molested her on the film set of "Danton," directed by Andrzej Wajda, which had been released in 1983. Essentially, Depardieu allegedly touched her inappropriately under her dress during scene preparations. At this time, Debever was around 18 to 19 years old.

The film "Danton" was a significant milestone in Emmanuelle Debever's brief acting career. In Wajda's drama, she portrayed the wife of the title character. Her last appearance on a film set was in the late 80s.

It's worth noting that a rape case is currently underway in court against Gerard Depardieu, accused by actress Charlotte Arnould. Meanwhile, new allegations against the actor are emerging in the media. In response, Depardieu penned an open letter addressed to "Le Figaro," titled "I finally want to tell you the truth," in which he denies all allegations.

Variety magazine further reports that the investigation into Debever's death by the Paris prosecutor's office is still ongoing. Recent information reveals that Emmanuelle Debever's partner had reported her missing since November 29.
