Vulnerability Liliane Bettencourt was in September 2006, according to medical experts to examine it. They set up Monday at the Bordeaux Criminal Court a portrait of a woman with “moderately severe dementia.”

These examinations were the first judicial medical expertise conducted with the heiress of L’Oreal. In their report, the five practitioners – two neurologists, an ENT physician, psychologist, under the direction of Sophie Gromb, legal doctor – had estimated that the vulnerability of the old lady went back to September 2006

C. ‘is the date for the start of the facts of abuse of weakness, concealment and laundering, for which ten men are tried until February 26 in Bordeaux.

The fall of the old lady in Spain at that time, “marks the beginning of the most obvious problems,” recalled to the stand neurologist Sophie Auriacombe. She said that the expertise concluded that the heiress of L’Oreal suffered from “moderately severe dementia in stadium”, combining Alzheimer’s disease with symptoms of vascular disease.

Disorders cognitive

                   She also had “cognitive” touching the spatio-temporal orientation, recalled the practitioner. The ENT doctor referred him severe hearing loss “evolutionary”, with a “significant worsening of speed.”

In support of their conclusions, the experts reported on interviews conducted in June 2011 with billionaire, then aged 88, at the request of the investigating judge Jean-Michel Gentil. His ex-nurse Alain Thurin was responsible for telling him their demands “by ear” because of his hearing disability.

Inability to meet

                   Dr. Sophie Auriocombe noted the difficulty for the old lady to understand a battery of simple questions about himself or his life at the time. “When I ask him what year it is, it is very difficult to understand what I want to tell him,” detailed the specialist.

Similarly, the neurologist said failure the old lady to tell him about his age. “But she knows her date of birth” because the “surapprises information is known,” she noted. Ms. Bettencourt is otherwise unable to repeat three words she has just read or reply on his program for the day.

sociocultural Varnish

                   Same problem before the “very simple vocabulary test” proposed by Dr. Bruno Daunizeau psychologist. “She was not able to answer any questions,” said the expert, noting stereotypical responses of a “courteous woman, very woman of the world,” such as “yes, yes, I see.”

According to Dr. Jean-François Dartiques, neurologist, the discussion with the billionaire could have a “consistency” when “question came from her.”

“varnish” According to him, due to the socio-cultural level of the billionaire. “It is plausible to imagine that if it has initiated the conversation,” Liliane Bettencourt “could totally abusing his interlocutor,” he added.

Controversy

                   Forensics, the first made on the billionaire had been the center of a controversy. The defense had denounced the partiality of the reviews conducted by Dr. Gromb, close enough to the Gentile judge to be a witness at his wedding. The Supreme Court had finally validated expertise.

At the hearing, the defense lawyers returned to the load on the validity of the work of the experts, accusing them of certain privileged medical documents while by abandoning others.

Now 92 years old and under guardianship, Liliane Bettencourt is the great absent from the trial.
