In their minds, and this could not be clearer, the stream of women they brought to their homes existed purely to be pursued for sexProsecutor Timothy Cray QC Mr Cray said Saha was Mendy's friend and fixer, and one of his jobs was "to find young women and to create the situations where those young women could be raped and sexually assaulted". The prosecutor said the woman was unable to leave the bathroom and they ended up on the bed with the woman on Mendy's lap. "That was the effect of deliberate, planned choices the defendants made, and the desires they let loose many times." Timothy Cray QC, opening for the prosecution, told the jury: "This case is another chapter in a very old story: men who rape and sexually assault women because they think they are powerful, and because they think they can get away with it." On the evening of July 23, a 22-year-old woman who worked at a nightclub in Manchester was invited to the pool party by Saha in return for money - an attempt to "procure" her as a potential victim, it is alleged.

Benjamin Mendy: Women disposable to 'predator' footballer, jury told (BBC News)

Man City's Benjamin Mendy raped three women in one night at his "isolated mansion", a court hears.

Mr Cray told the court how the defendants said in "broad terms" that all the women consented to sex willingly, with only a couple of allegations where there is a denial that anything sexual happened. The court heard how Mr Mendy's home, The Spinney, in Mottram St Andrew in rural Cheshire, was "part and parcel" of how he and Mr Matturie were able to abuse the women. Mr Cray said key features included the pair targeting "women who were so drunk almost to the extent that they had little or no memory of the incidents, or were asleep, or they were waking from sleep". Mr Cray said Mr Matturie was his friend and fixer, and he would "find young women and to create the situations where those young women could be raped and sexually assaulted". "The doors of restaurants and nightclubs were open to him, people wanted to be with him," Mr Cray said. He said the women were "disposable" to Mr Mendy.

Benjamin Mendy raped women in 'panic rooms', jury told (The Guardian)

Manchester City player and alleged 'fixer' accused of 'callous indifference' to 13 young women they allegedly attacked.

Two of the women said Mendy raped them in rooms they believed to be locked. The point is that you have to know how to open them from the inside, and you’ll perhaps see how the witnesses might have gotten the impression … that they are locked in,” said Cray. Some of the women told police they had their phones taken off them on arrival. Two of the women told police they were “passed between” both men at Mendy’s multimillion-pound mansion, where he held pool parties. The pair are accused of showing “callous indifference” to the 13 young women they allegedly attacked. The alleged offences by Mendy are said to have taken place at his gated mansion in the hamlet of Mottram St Andrew, near Macclesfield, between October 2018 and 2021.

That was the effect of deliberate, planned, choices the defendants made and the desires they let loose many times.” And you don’t lose that right because you’ve been to a bar or dressed for a nightclub or gone to a footballer’s house. Timothy Cray QC said in the prosecution's opening statement how "the stream of women they [Mendy and Matturie] brought to their homes existed purely to be pursued for sex." The court heard they went to the cinema room and started kissing but “straight away” Mendy took his shorts off and the alleged victim claims she told him she didn’t want to have sex with him. Another witness claims Mendy took her phone and headed upstairs to a master bedroom after going back to his house in October 2020. Two of the rooms in his house were said to be used as 'panic rooms' which had a sophisticated locking system that could only be opened from the outside.

It is therefore he who will decide on the length of a possible prison sentence for Benjamin Mendy and Louis Saha Matturie. Upon arrival, the fates of Benjamin Mendy, Louis Saha Matturie and the thirteen alleged victims will therefore be in the hands of twelve ordinary British citizens. From the height of his 33 years of experience across the Channel, the prosecutor in charge of this case has managed numerous files both as accuser and as defense lawyer. Louis Saha Matturie is the subject of twelve counts: eight rapes and four sexual assaults out of a total of eight alleged victims.
