Doctor committed rival to cuckold's nest

March 14 2003

A Bordeaux doctor was suspended for six months on Tuesday for having his
mistress's perfectly sane husband certified and committed to an asylum in
a straitjacket.

The French Medical Association's disciplinary committee ruled that Jean-
Marie Delbosc, a gynaecologist often called on as a court expert, had
persuaded several colleagues to issue "wholly untruthful" medical
certificates on the mental health of his rival.

One, signed by a close friend of Delbosc who has himself been suspended
for three months, said the husband, a local dentist named Martial
Corlouer, was suffering from an "acute paranoid delirium evolving towards a
major risk of violence".

Others described him as "unstable" and "potentially dangerous", allowing
Delbosc and his mistress to obtain, in the second half of 1998, an order
from the local prefect for Mr Corlouer's forced internment in a psychiatric
hospital.

Only after 48 days in a canvas straitjacket did the unfortunate dentist,
with the aid of an independent expert, manage to convince the
authorities of his sanity, and eventually secure his release.

He immediately lodged a formal complaint "against persons unknown",
alleging a plot to remove him from the
scene and make it easier for his wife to divorce him.

The medical association made no pronouncement on the alleged plot, but
found Delbosc guilty of "knowingly using false health certificates" and his
friend Denis Goube guilty of issuing a certificate based on "imperfections in
the clinical examination" of the patient.

Mr Corlouer said yesterday he was busy campaigning for stricter law on
the commitment of the insane, and discussing the sale of his story to a
Paris film producer.
