The Pelicot case: Will it change French attitudes towards rape?
In this special edition, Annette Young heads to Avignon as the Pelicot case enters its closing stages. For nearly a decade, Gisèle Pelicot was regularly drugged by her husband and offered up to strangers for sex. Now seen as the most notorious rape trial ever to be held in this country, we meet the local women who offer their support to the 72-year-old grandmother by decorating Avignon’s streets with slogans. Annette Young also talks to Catherine Porter from The New York Times, who’s been covering the trial, about how this case is shifting societal attitudes. Plus we report on the growing pressure on French authorities to address the issue of drug-facilitated sexual assault.
