Background
Louis Schweitzer's father, Pierre-Paul Schweitzer, was Managing Director of the IMF for 10 years.
Career
Criminal investigation
In 1995, the Justice Ministry investigated Schweitzer for being an "accomplice in poisoning" of the hemophiliacs. The case stemmed from his tenure as Chief of Staff to Laurent Fabius and whether he knowingly allowed blood infected with HIV to be distributed to recipients.[1] In 2003, the Court of Cassation dismissed the charges against him and several other officials.[2]
Criminal conviction
He was found guilty in 2002 of conducting surveillance on the phone of Jean-Edern Hallier as part of a special unit of the Elysée Palace and fined. The Court of Cassation upheld his conviction in 2008.[3][4][5]
