“In court, expert psychiatrist Laurent Layet, who interviewed 20 of the accused – including Pelicot three times – said they could not be described as “ordinary men…because that would be tantamount to saying that all men are capable of such acts.””

“The 50 men [arrested out of ~ 80] aged between 26 and 73 at the time of their arrest, include a councillor, a journalist, a former police officer, a prison guard, a soldier, a firefighter and a civil servant. Many were the couple’s neighbours in Mazan and had no previous ­criminal records.“
