David Matthews was arrested by French authorities in Paris on Tuesday and charged with “rape of a minor by a person with authority over his victim,” the report says. The 73-year-old man, who denies the charges, has since been released on bail. Officials said the alleged assault occurred between 1998 and 1999.
