Summary

Caroline Darian, daughter of convicted rapist Dominique Pelicot, insists her father should die in prison.

Pelicot, 72, was sentenced to 20 years for drugging and raping his wife, Gisèle, and facilitating her assault by 50 other men over a decade.

Police uncovered his crimes after an unrelated arrest led to disturbing evidence.

Darian, who suspects she was also drugged, campaigns against drug-facilitated assault.

She struggles with her dual identity as the daughter of both Pelicot and her mother, now a feminist icon in France.

Why the quotes?

Because she used those precise words.

When you're quoting what someone said, that's how it's done.

If the Independent made the statement, it would be libelous.

Jesus. What daughter would say that about her own father?!

Oh. That daughter. Carry on.
