In court, Gisele Pelicot’s sons have confronted their “devil” father; one of them claimed he felt like throwing up after learning that his mother had been raped by strangers for years.
Dominique Pelicot and at least 50 other men are accused of repeatedly raping Ms. Pelicot, 72, while she was asleep after drugged her.
In order to shame her attackers, she has waived her right to privacy and insisted that the trial in southern France be made public.
David Pelicot, her 50-year-old eldest son, spoke Monday about how appalled he was to learn what had been happening.
According to what my mother told me, the man in the courtroom before us brought her strangers to rape her. When I was told, I wanted to vomit,” he stated.
