Daughter: Dominique Pelicot: Darian claimed that her father gave her drugs and raped her, as photos of her naked and unconscious were discovered in his records.
Daughter: The daughter of French citizen Dominique Pellicot, who was convicted of drugging his wife and facilitating her rape by numerous individuals, has made a significant statement. In an interview on Saturday, she declared that her father "should die in jail." Following Pellicot's sentencing to 20 years in prison in a trial that shocked France last month, his daughter Caroline Derion gave her first television interview to the BBC, revealing many details.
She described her father as always being a sexual deviant. On the BBC show "Pellicot Trial: The Daughter's Story," Derion stated, "He should die in jail; he is a dangerous man." The 72-year-old Pellicot was found guilty of drugging and raping his wife Gisele Pellicot and encouraging numerous men to do the same for over a decade.
50 sentenced alongside Pellicot
After a three-month public trial in Avignon, southern France, around 50 co-defendants were also found guilty and received sentences ranging from three to 15 years. Gisele Pellicot chose to have her trial conducted publicly rather than privately, earning praise for her courage and dignified handling of the situation.
Rape allegations against father
Darian also claimed that her father gave her drugs and raped her, as photos of her naked and unconscious body were found in his records. However, during the trial, Pellicot denied ever raping his daughter. Darian told the BBC, "He always lies."
