Who has been imported from a misogynistic society and what does that have to do with domestic violence?

Please tell me you are not so breathtakingly stupid that you think intimate partner violence is something no British man engages in?

(In fact you probably are that stupid….)

Of course he has.

There are multiple rapey Congolese men in Oxford who were not deported by Air France crew in 2005?

This woman is amazing. Choosing to be identified in this manner is incredibly brave:

www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/france-rape-case-gisele-pelicot-husband-dominique-trial-drugging-mass-rape/

“ A French woman whose husband is accused of enlisting dozens of strangers to rape her while she was drugged said at his trial Thursday that police had saved her life by uncovering the crimes.

"The police saved my life by investigating Mister P.'s computer," Gisele Pelicot told the court in the southern city of Avignon, referring to her husband, who is one of 51 men from all walks of life standing trial over the alleged attacks.

Pelicot had initially wished to remain anonymous but has since appeared in public and her lawyer said she'd agreed to be fully identified. She insisted that the trial take place in public so the full facts of the case could emerge.”

Pelicot, now 71, had remained stoic and silent through the three first days of the high-profile case, communicating only through her lawyers. But she revealed her emotion on the stand Thursday when she recounted the moment in November 2020 when investigators first showed her the images of a decade of sexual abuse allegedly orchestrated and filmed by her husband, identified in court as Dominique P.

"My world is falling apart. For me, everything is falling apart. Everything I have built up over 50 years," she told the court. "Inside, I'm in ruins."

"Frankly, these are scenes of horror for me," she said of the images as her husband listened with his head bowed.

"I'm lying motionless on the bed, being raped," she added, calling the video "barbaric."

"They treat me like a rag doll," she told the panel of five judges, adding that she had only gained the courage to watch the video in May, years after she was first made aware of it.

"Don't talk to me about sex scenes. These are rape scenes," she said, stressing that she had never engaged in swinging or any other libertine sex.“

I recall this story coming out and was absolutely astonished them and remain astonished now.

The worse thing about it was how many of the men were fairly local to where the couple live.

They live in a small town / village and he was still able to find a significant number of men willing to rape his wife. It’s like when they say in London you are never more than a few metres from a rat. Maybe another version is a woman is never more than a few metres from a rapist.


I was also astonished to hear that sites like this exist all over the place and they have a case like this in Singapore. WTAF?

It is indeed the same story from a while back.

[Repat Van]

To add to the Gisele Pelicot piece:

amp.scmp.com/news/world/europe/article/3277392/french-woman-whose-husband-got-strangers-rape-her-describes-scenes-horror

“ She has insisted that the trial take place in public so the full facts of the case can emerge.

After she gave her testimony on Thursday, her family said via their lawyer that their full surname could be published. Gisele Pelicot said she wanted to draw attention to the dangers of sexual crimes through so-called chemical submission, or drugging someone with malicious intent. “I’m speaking for every woman who’s been drugged without knowing it,” she said.

I’m taking back control of my life, to denounce chemical submission. Many women don’t have the proof. I have the proof of what I’ve been through,” she said. She also told the accused to “for once in your lives at least, take responsibility for your actions”. “I feel disgusted,” she added. “I’ve lost 10 years of my life,” she said, adding that inside she was a “field of ruins.”

Pelicot is in the process of divorcing her husband, who has admitted to the charges against him. He was exposed by chance when he was caught filming up women’s skirts in a supermarket. The 71-year-old father of three documented his actions with meticulous precision on a hard drive in a folder labelled “abuse”, lead investigator Jeremie Bosse Platiere has said, adding this led police to track down 50 suspects beside the husband.

The investigators counted around 200 instances of rape, most of them by her husband and more than 90 by strangers. Pelicot said she had recognised only one of her alleged rapists, a man who had come to discuss cycling with her husband at their home. “I saw him now and then in the bakery, I would say hello, I never thought he’d come and raped me,” she said. The assaults took place between July 2011 and October 2020, mainly in the couple’s home in Mazan, a village of 6,000 people in the southern region of Provence.

Most of the suspects face up to 20 years in jail for aggravated rape if convicted. Eighteen of the 51 accused are in custody, including Dominique Pelicot. Thirty-two other defendants are attending the trial as free men. The last suspect, still at large, is being tried in absentia, with hearings expected to last four months until December 20.”

This is interesting:

"More abuse allegations have been made against Abbé Pierre, the late French Roman Catholic priest and campaigner who was long venerated as a modern-day saint.

In July, the Emmaus anti-poverty charity which Abbé Pierre founded said it had heard allegations of sexual assault and harassment from seven women and it believed them.

Emmaus has now decided to expunge Abbé Pierre from the organisation after 17 more women spoke out about having suffered abuse at his hands.

The priest, who died in 2007 aged 94, used to regularly appear in polls as one of the most popular French people of modern times because of his tireless work for the poor and homeless.

The Emmaus movement, which he founded in 1949, operates in more than 40 countries. In France, his caped and bearded figure became an emblem of Christian self-sacrifice.

Now, following a second release of witness statements gathered by Egaé, an independent consultancy, the movement has decided to remove Abbé Pierre’s name from its various organisations.

The Abbé Pierre Foundation is to be retitled, while the board of Emmaus France is to vote on removing the priest’s name from its logo. The Abbé Pierre Centre in Esteville in Normandy, where he lived for many years and is buried, is to close for good.

A decision will also be taken on how to dispose of hundreds of statuettes, busts and other images of the charity’s creator.

“We are in a state of shock, very hurt and very angry,” said Christophe Robert, who heads the Abbé Pierre Foundation. “We extend our fullest support to all the victims who have had the courage to speak out.”

A first blow fell in July when the Emmaus movement revealed allegations made by seven women, who said they had been victims of sexual aggression mainly in the form of breast-touching and unwanted kisses."

A lifetime of good works. Now having his name expunged and images of him destroyed. Dunno. I'm not defending abuse. He's hardly Jimmy Saville.

I absolutely agree that complainants have the right to be taken seriously, but believed?  Very different thing.

They should really close the whole thing down and burn all the money.
