The shocking trial of Dominique Pelicot has exposed a dark secret in Mazan as residents grapple with the reality that their village is now linked to horrific crimes committed secludedly.
A 76-year-old retired teacher expressed her horror, stating, 'How could so many people have been involved without anyone knowing it was happening? I usually knew all villagers.'
In this community of 6,400, the Pelicots were not well known, even as they orchestrated unspeakable acts in a seemingly quiet village—illustrating a disturbing anonymity in rural life.
