A former Human Resources Director for France’s Cultural Ministry is facing disturbing allegations after reportedly drugging more than 200 women during job interviews. According to The Guardian, Christian Negre allegedly targeted 240 female job candidates, slipping an illegal diuretic into coffee or tea before leading them on long walks away from any bathrooms — knowing the drug would force sudden, painful urinary urgency.
Officials say the scheme left multiple women urinating in public, feeling intense discomfort, or wetting their clothes in the middle of interviews they were told were “standard evaluations.”
Court Docs: Negre Tracked Victims in a Spreadsheet Called “P Experiments”
Investigators say Negre’s behavior first came to light in 2018, when he was accused of attempting to secretly photograph a senior official’s legs. The investigation into Negre dates back to 2018, when he was first accused of attempting to photograph a senior official’s legs.
During the inquiry, authorities searched his computer and discovered a spreadsheet titled “P Experiments.” The file allegedly contained dates, times, reactions, and even photos of victims experiencing drug-induced urinary distress.
Attorney Louise Berioty, who represents the majority of the women, described the behavior as deliberate and calculated:
“Under the pretext of a sexual fantasy, this is about power and domination over women’s bodies through humiliation and control.”
Negre now faces charges tied to sexual aggression, privacy violations, and abuse of authority. The Cultural Ministry has not commented publicly, but legal experts warn the case could spark widespread reforms in hiring protocols and workplace oversight across France.
