Gisele Pelicot: The mass rape trial that shocked the world
The verdict is expected on 19 December in the Mazan rape trial, which made Gisele Pelicot a feminist hero at home and abroad. For almost a decade, she was drugged by her now ex- husband Dominique so that he and strangers he recruited online could rape her. In the ranks of feminist associations and civil parties, hopes are high that this extraordinary trial will shake up the issue of consent and, perhaps, the very definition of rape in France.
