This Monday, Florian, David and Caroline, the three children of the Pelicot couple, returned one last time to the explosion that constituted for them and their children this decade of rapes orchestrated by their father, on their mother, by men whom he recruited on the Internet.
“For me, it is the trial of an entire family, which has been totally destroyed,” asserted, in a firm tone, the eldest of the siblings, David, 50, before the Vaucluse criminal court. “It is very complicated to explain to your children that they will not see their grandfather again,” he added.
Dominique Pelicot called “this gentleman” by one of his sons
But “my family wants and will continue to fight and above all hopes that in the future, we can erase, make the man on my left disappear in our heads,” he continued, speaking of his father, Dominique Pelicot, sitting in the dock. A father whom he now only refers to as “this gentleman”.
“You said she was a saint, but you were the devil himself,” Florian said to his father, taking over from his elder at the helm.
Already heard in the first week of the trial, Caroline Darian should be heard by the court one last time on Monday afternoon. And she should repeat what she has been saying since the discovery of the facts and these naked photos of her, taken without her knowledge, distributed by her father on social networks: that she too was drugged by him, with the nagging doubt of having, too, been raped in her sleep.
Our file on the Mazan affair
Once the hearings of the Pelicot children have been completed, late Monday afternoon or even Tuesday, the court should examine the files of the last two accused, Philippe L., a 62-year-old gardener, and Boris M., an employee in a manufacturing company. transportation of 37 years. Then President Arata should give the floor one last time to Dominique and Gisèle Pelicot.
