One of the most puzzling scandals recently took place in the town of Agde on the Mediterranean coast. This place is home to the largest swinger community in Europe. Many couples from all over Europe swap partners here. It is also known for its wild sex parties. Recently, the town became richer with a whole new scandal that shocked the rest of France. This scandal involved a fortune teller and the town’s mayor, Gilles d’Ettore, a former secret service agent and police officer. The fortune teller Sophia Martinez and the mayor are now behind bars. While Martinez is accused of tricking the mayor, d’Ettore is accused of corruption for spending lavish amounts of taxpayers’ money on her.
The fortune teller is famous for her ability to supposedly speak to the dead. Mayor d’Ettore contacted her and asked her to connect him with his deceased father. The fortune teller reportedly succeeded in doing so. While she was conducting séances, her voice suddenly changed and took on the tone of the mayor’s father, according to the BBC report.
The fortune teller is said to have manipulated the mayor with her unmatched ventriloquist skills as d’Ettore began receiving mysterious calls over the past four years. The mayor received thousands of mysterious calls from “voices” of the dead, including angels. In the call, some of them urged the mayor to help the fortune teller, which led to corruption.
The mayor used the public funds to finance a lavish vacation for Martinez and her family, from Polynesia to Thailand. It is alleged that the “voices” convinced him to hire several members of her family to work for the city administration. Not only that, she also asked for her house to be renovated.
The mayor’s lawyer, Jean Marc Darrigade said the fortune teller discovered a mental weakness in the mayor and exploited it for her personal benefit. Fortune Teller Martinez’s lawyer, Luc Abratkiewicz, countered the allegations saying it was not manipulation because she had confessed to her actions.
