paris - The anonymous house doctor of Dominique Pelicot played down his own role in the case, stating 'He would have succeeded anyway'.

Despite the international media attention surrounding the huge sex scandal, the doctor managed to remain anonymous so far.

According to the British newspaper Daily Mail, the doctor in question is Dr. D. T., a middle-aged bald man who shares a medical practice with his wife. After the medical records of the main suspect were seized at the doctor's office, D. T. reportedly remained silent due to medical confidentiality, as reported by Daily Mail.

Dominique Pelicot is said to suffer from sleep apnea, a sleep disorder characterized by periods of severely weakened breathing or breathing cessation during sleep. This condition would make it dangerous for him to take the sleeping pills prescribed by his doctor. Instead of informing his doctor about his sleep apnea, the main suspect misled his doctor for years with stories about sleep problems. He was prescribed benzodiazepines, which he kept and secretly administered to his wife.

If the doctor had been aware of Dominique Pelicot's sleep apnea, he likely would never have prescribed these medications. During the interrogations in the extensive sex scandal, the main suspect even admitted to giving some of his medications to three accomplices, so they could in turn abuse their partners.

Toxicological tests using hair samples confirmed that Dominique Pelicot had not taken the sleeping pills himself. However, when samples of Gisele's hair were analyzed, it was found that she had taken the medication in dangerously high doses.

On October 8, 2013, the doctor issued his first prescription to Dominique Pelicot, just six months after the Pelicot couple had moved from the Paris region to Mazan to enjoy their retirement. On March 3, 2020, the doctor allegedly gave Dominique Pelicot three boxes of the medication. He then extended the prescription three times, which is not legally allowed. There is also evidence that the doctor prescribed at least 780 Temesta pills to his patient in the maximum dose of 2.5 milligrams. Additionally, the doctor allegedly prescribed his patient 193 Viagra pills in a dose of 100 milligrams; five times the recommended dose, according to Daily Mail.

When asked by the British journalist, the doctor confirmed that 'Mr. Pelicot was indeed his patient who visited his practice for insomnia.' He also stated that he did not have the ability to verify the authenticity of such complaints. When questioned about the legality of such prescriptions, the doctor said, 'I am obligated to prescribe medications in the recommended doses. Insomnia is generally chronic and can last for many years. The prescriptions were within valid limits.' Without showing any remorse, the doctor continued, 'Anyway, if I don't prescribe these medications, he will simply get them from a psychiatrist or someone else.' According to the doctor, the chance is 'one in a million, or 30 million' that someone abuses medication for this purpose.

When asked if he found it strange that a sixty-year-old with sleep problems also requested a handful of high-dose Viagra, the doctor replied, 'Excuse me, but there is no need to have sex at night. It can also be during the day.'
