Caroline Darian, the daughter of French serial rapist Dominique Pélicot, says her father “should die in prison”.

Caroline Darian remembers the day and time she received the call from her mother Gisèle Pelicot that changed everything: Monday, November 2020 at 8:25 p.m.

“She told me that she discovered (my father) in the morning that Dominique had been taking drugs for about 10 years so that different men could rape her,” Darian said in an exclusive interview with CBS News partner network BBC News. “It was like an earthquake. A tsunami.”

More than four years later, a judge in France found Dominique Pélicot and the dozens of men he had invited to attack Gisele. convicted of aggravated rape. He received 20 years in prison, the longest sentence allowed under French law for his crimes.

Gisèle Pelicot gave up her anonymity and went to court every day with her head held high, becoming a symbol of courage in the fight against sexual violence.

In 2020, after Gisele’s phone call, Darian and his two brothers went to support their mother, who lived with their father in the south of France.

Then Darian got another call, this time from the police.

Officers showed him two photos they found on his father’s computer. The footage showed an unconscious woman on a bed in only a shirt and underwear.

“The police officer said, ‘Look, you’ve got the same brown spot on your cheek … that’s you,'” Darian said. “At that time, I looked at those two photos differently… I was lying on my left side like my mother in all the photos.

Darian is convinced that his father took drugs and assaulted him, as did his mother, Gisele, but he denies it.

“I know that he gave me drugs, probably for sexual abuse. But I don’t have any evidence,” he said.

There is no evidence of what was done to Darian, “and that’s the case for how many victims? They’re not believed because there’s no evidence. They’re not listened to, they’re not supported,” she said.

When she learned she had been drugged and molested more than 200 times by a man she trusted, Darian said, Gisèle struggled with the idea that this could happen to her daughter.

“It’s hard for a mom to pull it all together at once,” Darian said.

He advocates for other victims of what is now called chemical surrender because most of the victims and survivors never remember it happening.

“Looking back, I don’t really remember the father I thought he was. I’m looking straight at the criminal, he’s a sex offender,” Darian said. “But I have his DNA, and the main reason I’m so preoccupied with invisible victims is also a way for me to put some real distance with this guy…I’m completely different from Dominic.”

Being the child of both a victim and a torturer is a “terrible burden,” says Darian.

“He should die in prison,” he said. “He is a dangerous man.”
