Racing Driver Accused of Assaulting Woman at Michael Schumacher’s Mansion
A racing driver has been accused of assaulting a nurse at the mansion of Formula 1 legend Michael Schumacher. This shocking allegation involves a friend of Schumacher’s son, Mick Schumacher, and has been reported by the Swiss outlet 24 heures.
Details of the Allegation
The indictment, prepared by the Public Prosecutor’s Office of the District of La Côte, claims the assault occurred on November 23, 2019. The nurse, who was providing care for Michael Schumacher, reportedly lost consciousness after consuming multiple vodka cocktails.
Key Events
- Date of Incident: November 23, 2019
- Location: Michael Schumacher’s mansion in Gland, Switzerland
- Involved Parties: A nurse and a racing driver friend of Mick Schumacher
Allegations Presented
According to the indictment, the nurse, having consumed alcohol, was laid down by her colleagues without undressing her. It is alleged that shortly after, the driver returned and assaulted her. The driver reportedly asserted that their relationship was consensual, mentioning a kiss shared at a club in Geneva; however, the nurse has denied any romantic involvement.
Background Context
This case comes to light nearly three years after the initial complaint was filed against the unnamed racing driver. No members of the Schumacher family are implicated in this allegation. Michael Schumacher, a seven-time world champion, has not been in public view since suffering a serious skiing injury in 2013, which left him in need of constant care.
As the trial approaches, the Public Prosecutor’s Office has been contacted for further comments on the matter. The developments of this case are closely monitored in the context of high-profile accusations within the sports community.
