David Pelicot
David Pelicot has recently come into the spotlight due to his harrowing revelations about his father, Dominique Pelicot, who has been convicted of multiple sexual assaults against his mother, Gisèle Pelicot. In an interview with Sky News, David spoke about the shock of learning about his father's heinous crimes, which included drugging and raping Gisèle, and allowing other men to assault her. David described the moment he learned the truth as a 'tsunami' and expressed his belief that many more victims may have fallen prey to his father’s actions. He has since become an advocate for discussions on men's sexual violence against women in France, calling for a new law on consent, and has praised his mother as a symbol of strength and resilience in the face of unimaginable trauma.
