On reprend directement avec la prise de parole de Gisèle, à chaud. Elle est visiblement très remontée. Elle sermonne HD, "J'ai honte pour vous! Il n'y a qu'une seule victime ici, c'est moi! Assumez vos actes!"

(on n'entend RIEN à ce que dit l'avocat général, désolée. Si on avait un ministre de la justice je ferais bien une requête pour faire changer les micros de la salle d'appel de Nîmes)

Menvielle demande sil confirme qu'il annoncait clairement aux autres hommes qu'il proposait un viol.
Pelicot dit qu'il proposait d'abuser de sa femme endormie.
Menvielle lui rappelle qu'en gàv il a déclaré qu'il n'avait pas conscience que le viol conjugal existait

Mazan, un an après : des avancées et des espoirs déçus

Mazan, un an après : des avancées et des espoirs déçus

Les tribunaux sont depuis des décennies des lieux de combat contre les violences masculines. Le procès des violeurs de Gisèle Pelicot aura joué un rôle de révélateur de la culture du viol. Mais il laisse aussi des déceptions et la crainte, qu’une fois l’émotion retombée, la France oublie.
