The Pelicot Rape

[Flyguy330]

I'm curious to hear the opinions on this case from the 'sexperts' on this forum.

According to the evidence and admissions made, Mr.Pelicot arranged the rape of his unconscious wife over a 9 year period. Over 70 men were alleged to be involved, and about 50 were tracked down and have been convicted of Mrs.Pelicots rape. I understand that in some instances the 'attacks' were multiple simultaneous rapes by many different men. A gang rape in other words.

My problem is that I really find it hard to believe that a woman could be regularly drugged into unconsciousness over a 9 year period without suspecting something. Furthermore, I think most women can tell when there has been sexual penetration of their body even if it occurred while unconscious - and more so when the penetration was by multiple dicks, and probably in a rough or aggressive manner. Am I wrong in that?

All of this puts serious doubts in my mind as to the truth of this whole story, at least in terms of the womans shock and amazement at being shown the video evidence.

Does anyone else find it strange, indeed unbelievable, that she was in total ignorance of what was going on?

Presumably that came up in the trial

The whole story is past horrific

 

What decent man does that to his wife or partner?

 

The guy is a monster, as well as the guys who participated in the abuse

 

I thought the sentences for  the abusing men were crazy lenient 

 

But at least Pelicot himself will rot and die in prison

I disagree only on one point, I reckon that the trial was handled masterly, thanks to Madame Pelicot in the largest part. She is an amazing Lady.

A decent man doesn't.
