Truly horrifying. Makes you wonder how much of this goes on. The police only fournd out about it by accident:

Wow. That's tragic. It doesn't absolve him in any way, but assuming what he said is true, it sort of answers some of the why.
âToday I maintain that, along with the other men here, I am a rapist,âł Dominique PĂŠlicot told the court. âThey knew everything. They canât say otherwise.â
Good, let them all be prosecuted to the fullest extent of French law. (Which I know nothing about, but I hope incurs punishments in keeping with the severity of their crimes)

An associate of Frenchman Dominique Pelicot, who for a nearly a decade drugged his wife and invited dozens of men to rape her, admitted to copycat abuse of his own partner on Wednesday, blaming his mentor and a troubled childhood.
Police have said Jean-Pierre Marechal, 63, worked with Pelicot to drug and both rape Marechal's wife Cilia after meeting on a now-shuttered website.
And of course there is the arrest of Combs.....
