## Coverage angles

All three political leanings report the opening of an investigation by the Bayonne prosecutor's office targeting Eric Olhats and recall his previous conviction, but they differ on the classification of the facts targeted, the number of investigations mentioned, and the level of detail on his judicial past.

**Common ground**

- A new investigation targeting Eric Olhats was announced by the Bayonne prosecutor's office
- Olhats has already been sentenced to six years in prison for sexual assaults on minors
- He is presented as the former mentor of Antoine Griezmann

**Differences**

- Le Parisien mentions 'two new investigations', while the other titles mention only one
- Libération qualifies the targeted facts as 'rapes and sexual assaults', Le Monde as 'sexual violence against minors', and the center as 'sexual assaults on minors'
- The left details the dates and number of victims of the previous conviction (1997-2002, 2021-2022, six young footballers), elements absent from the center excerpts
- The center makes explicit the purpose of the investigation (identifying potential new victims), a detail absent from the left excerpts
