Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I know a lot about the depravity of people but this is a new low even for me.
You know it’s bad when the person who makes everything into a joke admits that it’s fucked
I hope every single dude involved in this sees hard time. That's gotta be unbelievably traumatic for her.
A life sentence, I would hope.
monsters deserve never to see light again
This situation is super fucked, and I feel horrible for her. Maybe some of the men doing it truly believed it was a fetish / consensual though, it's incredibly hard to say without seeing the messages. Either way they definitely should have checked in with the wife, and not have trusted the husband (who was the only conscious person they interacted with).
Edit - after reading the HIV thing, I retract this statement. Fuck these people
Also he made them go through an elaborate set of rules to leave no odors or other signs, there's no way they didn't know what they were doing.
“I have had no sympathy from any of the accused. One who was HIV-positive came six times. Not once did my husband express any concern about my health,” she said.
Even if these rapists claims they thought they were participating in some weird sex play, if you knew you were HIV positive, why would you have unprotected sex with anybody?
Their claims reek of bullshit.
if you knew you were HIV positive, why would you ~~have unprotected sex with~~ rape anybody?
When you use the correct terms, your question answers itself (E, in case it wasn't clear: because they're a selfish piece of shit).
Obviously. The point the person was making was to say that even if we buy into the bullshit narrative that this was consensual, it still doesn’t make sense. They didn’t use incorrect terms to skirt around it, they were making a specific point about their claims.
Sir, this is Lemmy. There are semantic arguments we must beat each other over the head with. I didn't make the rules...
After the truth emerged, Gisèle found that she was carrying four sexually-transmitted diseases.
“I have had no sympathy from any of the accused. One who was HIV-positive came six times. Not once did my husband express any concern about my health,” she said.
Not only does every one of these men deserve to spend the rest of their lives in prison, but I hope every one of these fuckers tests positive for this.
I hope they die from it.
If I said "come over for free beer" I don't know that I could get 50 people in a day.
What fucking scene is this dude plugged into that he got 50 "yes"s to "hey how's about a nice rape?"
Probably using a group chat or something. I can't imagine he personally knows all 50 of these guys tbh. I hope not at least for the reasons you indicated.
I am a total junkie for true crime, but this is one of the most harrowing, vile, and horrific things I have ever read. I am a lesser person for having read it. That said, I think her carrying on despite all of this is really the testament of the human spirit. That poor woman...
Yeah this makes me never want to hear about true crime again.
I'll stick to my fake crime, thank you very much.
Like tax evasion.
I've been hearing about Korean true crime recently so sadly the only thing totally new to me about this is it happened in France. Though somehow I'm shocked every time i hear of anything so dishusting, like I don't want to learn the lesson that the world is full of so many terrible people.
My wife was telling me about this yesterday, apparently it wasn't just the guy's wife but their fucking daughter, too
He started doing this when she was 60 and it went on for 10 years
The only other thing that I can think of that compares to this is Dahmer lobotomizing his victims with a hand drill to make them into sex slaves
What do you mean with it was their daughter too? I don't see that mentioned anywhere, the daughter is just mentioned to have been devastated when her mother told her
I guess they are speculating that he did? Apparently they found a folder on his computer with pictures of her in underwear that she didn't recognize or remember taking, but she obviously doesn't have any memory of being a part of the sexual abuse since he was allegedly drugging them.
I didn't read the story my wife did, she was just conveying it to me so I might have misunderstood something
apparently it wasn’t just the guy’s wife but their fucking daughter, too
What?
What a fucking trooper, I can't even begin to imagine the strength it requires to go through with this.
Fuck that story makes me so sad and angry! I hope all those pieces of human garbage get what they deserve in prison!
That is so messed up.
The husband was also involved in a rape and murder in the early 90s. He was caught because he was trying to take upskirts of people in public and the police found the evidence for what he was doing to his wife and daughter on his electronics.
