Freedom of Speech in France

WATCH: Woman pleads for American help as France seeks to jail her for exposing rape threat due to migrant invasion

'You should come to the U.S., freedom of speech is still observed in Red (Republican) states. We welcome you'

A French woman is pleading with Americans and European patriots for help as her own government is looking to jail her for publicly exposing the dangers African and Arab immigrant men pose to women in France.

"I need your help," said Thaïs d'Escufon in a video posted Tuesday on X, as she faces a possible six-month prison sentence and $3,500 fine.

"Tomorrow I may be sentenced to unsuspended prison for daring to say on French TV that the main danger to women in France comes from black African and Arab immigrant men, even though I was defending a woman who was herself raped by a Central African man subject to an OQTF order in the courtyard of her Paris apartment building.

"Having myself survived an attempted rape by a Tunisian migrant four years ago, I could not remain silent. But for having spoken these words on television set, the prosecutor has sought a prison sentence against me."

D'Escufon says the prosecutor "dismissed our two stories as insignificant incidents which did not excuse my hate speech. Yet all I did was describe a reality that most French people are afraid to speak about precisely because the justice system is capable of convicting them for describing what they see with their own eyes and experience firsthand.
