Mass Rape Case: Appeals Filed by Convicted Men

A French court recently convicted 49 men for participating in a decade-long rape scheme against Gisèle Pelicot.

The ringleader, Dominique Pelicot, will not appeal his 20-year sentence; however, seventeen other men are challenging their convictions.

These appeals will lead to a new trial with a jury, potentially influencing the final verdicts and sentences.

Gisèle Pelicot, despite the ordeal, bravely supports the legal process and hopes to inspire other victims.
