A Belgian journalist reporting from the Cologne Carnival in Germany detailed a horrifying incident that took place while she was live on camera. Esmeralda Labye was detailing a rash of sexual assaults that had plagued the carnival — with 18 incidents “up to and including rape” being reported on just the first night alone — when suddenly three men appeared behind her, one simulating a sex act. The full video has been removed from the internet, but things reportedly only got worse after that.
“At first they were just making faces behind me. Then a hand landed on my breast. I was was shocked,” said Labye, describing the incident that took place in the Alter Markt district of town.
“My piece to the camera was chaotic, people showing middle fingers, a man who was having fun miming a sex act behind me and above all the hand placed on my breast.”
Authorities are now investigating and hoping to find the men, which is likely because they stupidly groped a woman in front of a live television camera. It’s unclear why the their faces are blurred in the above video, because obviously they don’t deserve the respect of anonymity for what they did.
