Duhamel scandal

The Duhamel scandal was a 2021 scandal involving a leading Parisian social and political sciences university, Sciences Po.[1][2] The scandal originated from accusations in a book written by Camille Kouchner, La Familia Grande. In that book, Kouchner, daughter of former minister Bernard Kouchner, accused Olivier Duhamel, her step-father, of sexually abusing her twin brother.[3] The resulting outrage resulted in multiple resignations from the school and in Duhamel's confession. The public questioned Sciences Po's handling of the alleged activity, but the school was ultimately exonerated.
