⚠️ 警告:本报道包含性虐待内容描述。
50年来,吉塞尔·佩利科特(Gisèle Pelicot)与丈夫多米尼克·佩利科特(Dominique Pelicot)共同生活。她形容丈夫是”一个善良的人,一个 devoted 的家庭男人。这曾是一个美好的爱情故事,直到我直面那些恐怖事实的那一天。”
这些事实摧毁了吉塞尔看似正常的生活,将她推向了一场大规模强奸案审判的中心——这起令人发指的罪行震惊了法国并引起全球关注。但她的回应才是决定性的。
她接受了《哥伦比亚广播公司周日早晨》(”CBS Sunday Morning”)的采访,这是她声称的首次接受采访:”是的,这是第一次,”她通过翻译说道。”我不习惯在镜头前讲话。我过去是个非常谨慎的女人。”
这一切始于2020年法国马赞(Mazan)的一家超市,当时一起看似微不足道的小罪案揭开了更大的罪恶。多米尼克·佩利科特因偷拍女性裙底视频被捕,他的逮捕导致发现了令人不安的家庭内部视频——吉塞尔·佩利科特在其中处于无意识状态。
“我的世界崩塌了”
在当地警察局,一名调查人员向吉塞尔展示了他们的发现:”他说,’佩利科特夫人,你能认出照片中的自己吗?’”她回忆道。”我说,’不,那不是我。’然后他说,’这是你的卧室。’我看到一个我完全不认识的女人,她完全睡着,旁边有个男人。我不认识这个男人。然后他说,’我要告诉你一个令人震惊的事实:你被53个人强奸了。’我的世界崩塌了。”

她形容视频中的女人像个布娃娃。那个女人就是她。”是的,那是我,但那个女人毫无生气,”她说。”她看起来像死了一样。”
她的反应是:”我无法说话。我处于极度震惊中。我只想回家,把生活恢复到以前的样子。”
但那个生活已经一去不复返了。她所认识的那个慈爱的父亲(有三个孩子)和慈祥的祖父,一直在给她下药——用安眠药和肌肉松弛剂,然后邀请在网上认识的男人来虐待她。
她的律师斯特凡·巴博诺(Stéphane Babonneau)表示,这涉及至少10年间数百起强奸案。他和吉塞尔在准备审判时开始意识到犯罪规模——”如果不是数千起,至少也是数百起照片,”他说。”而视频肯定有数百个。”
证据包括多米尼克·佩利科特在网上发布的消息(”我在寻找一个变态同谋来侵犯我睡着的妻子…”),以及短信(”我正要给她下药…我们至少要等一个小时才能实施侵犯”)。
“这真的是一次坠入黑暗的旅程,”巴博诺说。他形容这些图像是”酷刑场景。没有别的词可以形容。…在这段视频中,我们看到一个人被当作物品对待。我们看到一些男人亵渎一个人体,亵渎一个人——吉塞尔,她处于极度痛苦中,因为她的生命在每一次被下药和虐待时都受到威胁。”
在法国,性虐待受害者可以保持匿名。因此,直到2024年审判开始,吉塞尔·佩利科特的名字才为人所知。但她做出了一个大胆的决定:要求公开审判,允许公众和媒体进入法庭。

向世界揭露自己的身份对她来说很艰难:”这非常困难。我不想让任何人发现并知道这个经历了所有暴力的女人。因为,事实上,受害者总是对发生在自己身上的事情感到羞耻。我告诉自己,如果我公开这些闭门审理的程序,羞耻感就会改变立场。”
“羞耻必须改变立场”是她痛苦经历回忆录《生命赞歌》(A Hymn to Life)的副标题,该书将于周二由企鹅出版社(Penguin Press)出版。
当巴博诺听说她想要公开审判时,他感到担忧:”因为我们知道这会给她带来巨大压力,”他说。
“愤怒和仇恨无法建设,只会摧毁”
审判中,被告们在进入法庭时都遮挡了面部。他们的年龄从26岁到74岁不等,其中包括一名消防员、一名士兵和一名护士。在法庭上,许多人声称吉塞尔·佩利科特一定知情,甚至参与其中。

但多米尼克·佩利科特承认了一切,他作证说:”这一切都是在她不知情的情况下进行的,”并补充说他每周给她下药两到三次。”我有瘾,”他说。
回顾过去,吉塞尔说有一些警示信号:”我只知道我有昏厥,而且我有健康问题,”她说。还有一些时候她的记忆受到影响。”我不记得我去过美发店;直到第二天我才意识到我去过,”她说。”当我给孩子们打电话时也是如此——我不记得我们的对话。
“我以为自己得了重病。我咨询了神经科医生,做了CT扫描——但什么都没发现,”她说。
即使在回忆那段可怕的经历时,吉塞尔·佩利科特仍保持着冷静。”我一直都是这样,”她说。”愤怒和仇恨无法建设,只会摧毁。我不想走上那条路。”
审判成为全球头条新闻,吸引了大量支持者。他们称赞吉塞尔·佩利科特的勇敢,将她视为女权主义英雄。看到这些支持者,她说这让她觉得自己并不孤单:”这对我来说是难以置信的力量源泉。”

最终,51名男子全部被定罪。多米尼克·佩利科特被判处最高20年监禁。
他请求(现在的前妻)的原谅。但吉塞尔·佩利科特说:”不。原谅非常困难。但我不想生活在仇恨中。我确实需要和他谈谈——这也将是为了告别。”
但她确实想再见到他。”是的,”她说。”我需要答案。我可能永远得不到答案,但这也是我旅程的一部分。”
采访期间,镜头外有吉塞尔的新伴侣让-卢普(Jean-Loup),他在审判期间也陪伴在她身边,还有她的孩子们。
“我从没想过我会爱上别人,甚至想过要爱上别人,”她说。”这是一个美好的故事。至于其他的,属于我们两个人,我会把它保密。”
但你现在恋爱了吗?”是的。你可以在任何年龄坠入爱河。一切皆有可能。这也是一个希望的信息,告诉你生活中没有什么是失去的。”
尽管经历了这些可怕的细节,但在书的结尾,她的故事奇迹般地令人振奋。”我一直想知道我在这个世界上的使命是什么,我为什么出生,”她说。”有些人是画家,有些人是诗人,另一些人是作家。我认为我的使命是给别人希望,告诉他们即使经历苦难,你仍然可以重新站起来,选择幸福。我想这就是我的使命。”

Gisèle Pelicot speaks
February 15, 2026 / 10:28 AM EST / CBS News
WARNING: This story contains descriptions of sexual abuse.
For 50 years, Gisèle Pelicot lived with her husband, Dominique Pelicot, whom she described as “a kind man, a devoted family man. It was a beautiful love story, until the day I found myself facing the horror of the facts.”
Those facts shattered Gisèle’s seemingly normal life, and put her at the center of a mass rape trial – an unthinkable crime that gripped France and received worldwide attention. But it was her response that would be defining.
She sat down with “CBS Sunday Morning,” for what she said was her first-ever interview: “Yes, it’s a first,” she said through an interpreter. “I’m not used to speaking in front of cameras. I used to be a very discreet woman.”
It all unravelled in 2020, inside a supermarket in Mazan, France, when what seemed like a small crime uncovered a far greater one. Dominique Pelicot was caught taking video up women’s skirts. His arrest led to the discovery of disturbing footage taken inside their home of Gisèle Pelicot unconscious.
“My world collapsed”
At a local police station, an investigator told Gisèle what they found: “He said, ‘Mrs. Pelicot, do you recognize yourself in these photos?’” she recalled. “And I said, ‘No, it’s not me.’ Then he said, ‘This is your bedroom.’ And I see a woman I don’t recognize at all, completely asleep with a man beside her. I don’t know this man. And then he says, ‘I’m going to tell you something shocking: You were raped by 53 individuals.’ My world collapsed.”

She described the woman in the video as looking like a rag doll. That woman was her. “Yes, it was me, but this woman was lifeless,” she said. “She looked dead.”
Her response? “I could not speak. I was in such a state of shock. All I wanted was to go home, to get my life back as it was before.”
But that life was gone. The man she knew as a loving father to their three children, and a doting grandfather, had been drugging her with sleeping pills and muscle relaxants, then inviting men he met online to abuse her.
Her lawyer, Stéphane Babonneau, said it represented hundreds of rapes over at least 10 years. He and Gisèle started to grasp the scale of the crimes as they prepared for trial – “In the range of hundreds, if not thousands” of photos, he said. “And for videos, definitely hundreds.”
Among the evidence: messages Dominque Pelicot posted online (“I’m looking for a pervert accomplice to abuse my sleeping wife…”), and text messages (“I’m about to dose her… We have to wait at least one hour to abuse”).
“It’s been a real journey into the darkness,” said Babonneau. He described the images as “scenes of torture. There is no other word for that. … On this video we see a human being, being treated as an object. We see men who desecrate a human body, who desecrates someone, Gisèle, who is in profound distress, because her life was at risk at every moment where she was drugged and abused.”
Victims of sexual abuse can remain anonymous in France. So up until the trial in 2024, Gisèle Pelicot’s name was not known. But then she made a bold decision: to demand an open trial, allowing the public and the press into the courtroom.

Revealing her identity to the world, she said, was difficult: “It was very hard. I didn’t want anybody to discover and know about this woman who had experienced all this violence. Because, in truth, victims always feel shame about what happened to them. I told myself that if I opened the closed-door proceedings, the shame would change sides.”
The words “Shame Has to Change Sides” are the subtitle of her intimate account of the ordeal, “A Hymn to Life”(to be published Tuesday by Penguin Press).
Babonneau said he was worried when he heard that she wanted to have an open trial: “Because we knew that there would be a tremendous pressure on her,” he said.
“Anger and hatred build nothing; they destroy”
At trial, the accused hid their faces as they filed into court. They ranged in age from 26 to 74. Among them: a firefighter, a soldier, and a nurse. In court, many claimed Gisèle Pelicot must have known, must have been complicit.

But Dominique Pelicot admitted everything, testifying, “It was always against her knowledge,” adding he drugged her two to three times a week. “I had an addiction,” he said.
Looking back, Gisèle said, there were warning signs: “I only knew I had blackouts, and I had health problems,” she said. There were also periods where her memory was affected. “I couldn’t remember that I’d been to the hairdresser; it was only the next day that I realized I had,” she said. “And when I called my children, it was the same – I didn’t remember our conversations.
“I thought I was seriously ill. I consulted neurologists, I had a CT scan – nothing was found,” she said.
Even recounting her horrifying ordeal to “Sunday Morning,” Gisèle Pelicot maintained her poise. “I’ve always been this way,” she said. “Anger and hatred build nothing; they destroy. And I didn’t want to go down that path.”
The trial made headlines worldwide, and drew huge crowds of supporters, who praised Gisèle Pelicot for her bravery, holding her up as a feminist hero. Seeing those supporters, she said, made her feel that she was not alone: “It was an incredible source of strength for me.”

All of the 51 men eventually put on trial were convicted. Dominique Pelicot was sentenced to the maximum of 20 years.
He has asked for his (now ex-)wife’s forgiveness. But Gisèle Pelicot says, “No. Forgiveness is extremely difficult. But I don’t want to live in hatred. I do need to speak with him – and it will also be to say goodbye.”
But she does want to see him again. “Yes,” she said. “I need answers. I may never get them. But that’s also part of my journey.”
During our interview, just off camera, was Gisèle’s new partner, Jean-Loup, who was also by her side during the trial, along with her children.
“I never thought I’d fall in love, or even want to,” she said. “It’s a beautiful story. As for the rest, it belongs to us, and I keep that to myself.”
But you’re in love? “Indeed. You can fall in love at any age. Everything is possible. That, too, is a message of hope, to tell yourself that nothing is lost in life.”
Despite the details of her ordeal, by the end of the book, her story is, miraculously, uplifting. “I was always wondering what my mission on Earth was, why I had been born,” she said. “Some are painters, some are poets, others are writers. I think my mission was to give others hope, that even after hardship, you can rise again and choose happiness. I think that was my mission.”
