Her husband got the maximum sentence in France, which is 20 years, and was found guilty of not only drugging her and having her raped, but also of taking photos/videos and selling them. All the men who were tried (50 of them) were found guilty and got a prison sentence of minimum 3 years. Some of them will still remain free over the holidays, but they need to face another judge later who will apply the sentence accordingly. While it all seems too little considering what they did, it's still historical to have such a case finally taken seriously in France. Some horrors that were said by the lawyers probably didn't reach foreign media, but French-speaking people who followed the case, most likely a lot of women, had to hear/read them. As a rape survivor myself, it made me sick to my stomach to hear that shit. But Gisèle Pelicot deserves justice. We hope to see a before/after Gisèle Pelicot in the justice system and dare to believe that future cases will be treated more justly. If you followed this case, please support Adèle Haenel as well. Her case started during the Pelicot case and got less publicity, but she is also dragging her abuser to court. She was abused by her mentor when she was only 12 years old and so far, all I've heard from the case is that Adèle had to walk out during the session because, as usual, she was told that she must've consented at that age.

“Shame must change sides.”

Gisele Pelicot is one of the bravest and most heroic people alive.

'There’s this French author named Annie Ernaux, and she wrote a book about her own abortion, and in this book, she says there is no museum in the world where there is a frame called “The Abortion.” It’s an everyday thing, but it’s never represented. And why?' - Céline Sciamma in an interview with Vox [x]
