How completely sick in the head do you have to be to do something like this 🤢
What got me was the one guy who said it wasn’t rape because “It's his wife, he does what he likes with her." Tf kind of reasoning even is that?!
Conservative reasoning?
Marital rape only became a crime in the mid -late 1990's in most countries.
Before that it was really like that before the law. She's his wife? He has a right to her body.
Even then, the drugging and the 50 other men involved would not be considered marital consent.
That seemed wrong so I looked out up on Wikipedia and wholy shit it's really only been 30 years. I wonder how many of my peers are products of legal rape. Wikipedia article with worldwide data
The same kind Steven Crowder uses.
Jesus fucking christ what a tough day to be able to read.
So angry right now.
You’re talking about the frontrunner for the GOP, presidential candidate, as well as a private individual who never raped anybody. And, of course, understand that by the very definition, you can’t rape your spouse.

Jfc, the story gets worse. Somehow.
Daughter storms out of father’s rape trial after court hears he kept nude pictures of her
Holy shit, how does it get worse. Of course it does. The daughter:
Ms Darian told Le Parisien this week that she was haunted by the fear her father may have invited some of the men to rape her after a picture of her “in someone else’s underwear” was found on his computer.
Gisèle Pélicot has waived her right to anonymity to insist that her rape trial remains public so “this never happens again”.
Mrs Pélicot insisted the trial should not go on behind closed doors because “that’s what her attackers would have wanted”, said Antoine Camus, one of her lawyers.
This lady is a fucking badass. I can't respect anyone more than I respect her for this move.
Right, that's enough internet for me today.
...it's shit like this that makes me root for the meteor.
Poor woman. That's just disgusting on so many levels.
Sometimes people will do things so fucked up you'd never imagined them before. This is one.
2011 through 2020... That is both frightening in its length and disturbing that he was able to get (invite) that many men to do this and it was never discovered.
Oh I thought it was all at the same time.
There's a line in the story about her suffering through this for 10 years. It's horrific to consider.
through 2020
Which implies that it only stopped because of the pandemic
I think the article said it was only found out because police happened across the files during an investigation of something else (namely, the husband trying to take upskirt photos of women in public).
How do you find and arrange 50 men with no conscience to participate? Holy shit.
Oh, it wasn't all at once......
So the guy would have been in his 50’s when he started doing this? Maybe it’s just me, but feels like there’s probably much more victims out there.
