Gisèle Pelicot is a French woman who was covertly drugged and raped by her husband Dominique Pelicot on numerous occasions over a nine-year period between 2011 and 2020. Dominique also invited dozens of men, contacted through a website, to rape her while she was unconscious, mostly in the couple's home in Mazan. Gisèle only became aware of the abuse in 2020, when Dominique was arrested for upskirting women in a local supermarket and a police search of his computer equipment revealed images of her being raped.
