Prosecutor Laure Chabaud demanded the maximum sentence for aggravated rape, stating, 'The maximum sentence is 20 years, which is a lot... but at the same time ... too little in view of the seriousness of the acts that were committed and repeated.' This highlights the gravity of the situation and the impact of the crimes committed against Gisele Pelicot.
Many of the 51 other men on trial have claimed they were unaware they were raping Gisele Pelicot, denied intending to harm her, or shifted all responsibility onto her then-husband, blaming him for manipulating the circumstances. This shows a disturbing trend of deflecting accountability for their actions in a heinous crime.
