I came here to post this too.

Gisèle Pelicot trial live updates: Gisèle Pelicot's ex-husband Dominique jailed for 20 years in mass rape trial

The 72-year-old who drugged and raped his ex-wife is being sentenced along with 50 other men in France.

This case alone is going to fill up French jails, some hefty sentences being handed down.

I was worried that French law not having any mention of consent would somehow let these men walk away. So relieved and in awe of Gisele's courage

She's incredible.

Honestly 20 years is too short!

And the man Pelicot helped to drug and rape his own wife only got 12 years! WTF

Wonderful news, and what an incredible woman.
