Such depravity, such betrayal, Gisèle Pelicot rape trial

[Emily Lake]

What sickness do these monsters have?

I think he was a Donald Trump protégé.
That would ‘splain it.

This comes across as a callous dismissal of horrific crimes committed against women.

Seriously bro. “Look at how many people this horrible person raped”

“Yeah, but Trump, amirite?”

Give your head a shake.

If you want examples of sexual depravity look at the extremes of Internet porn including explicit bestiality.

No thank you and I recommend you purge your browsing history.

Rape, gang rape, and forced sex is a very common porn theme. Teen sex live on the net overseas. Teen sex tourism overseas.

What on earth do you do all day?!

There is the current cases of sexual abuse by the wealthy icons in the music business that nay involve well known figures as participants.

So no, nothing new as far as I know.

Sure, the upper echelons of the wealthy and privileged classes have always enjoyed a level debauchery that most can't imagine. But the Pelicot case is most disturbing as it involves ordinary and otherwise bland people. A husband that drugged his wife and scoured the internet for men to come to his home and rape his comatose wife is beyond belief. Something is sick in society.

You started a thread on sexual depravity, why? Did you think it would titillate others?

Drugging women for sexual abuses is far from new. Getting a woman drunk is probably as old as human civilization. More modern are date rape drugs. Slipped into a dink in a bar. Old news.

In high schoools girls bing assaulted a by multiple boys.

Sexual abuse in Hollywood has long been an open secret.

The original Law And Order Speciak Victims Unit year by year got progressively more perverse and graphic in the fictional cases of sexual abuse. People ate it up, a popular show.

The rape scene in the movie Woman With The Dragon Tattoo. To many people it is great move making. A screaming woman tied to a bed raped. I herd about it on the net and watched the scenee.

The actress who did thee scene was in an interviewer a few months ago. It is mainstream entertainment.

Swinging, open marriages, and sex clubs go back to the 60s. Clubs where a woman, or man, can go to be sexually degraded.

Histrionically I doubt it is new. Gang rape is a common theme in porn. Rape histrionically has been part of conquest and subjugation in war. It is going on as we speak in conduct areas.

This is not new. Multiple conflict areas.

AI Overview
In the ongoing civil war in Sudan, which began in April 2023, rape and sexual violence have been systematically used as weapons of war by combatants, amounting to war crimes and potential crimes against humanity. Human rights groups and United Nations bodies report that thousands of women and children have been targeted with rape, gang rape, sexual slavery, and abduction.

Culturally IMO we have gone off the deep end into perversion as entertainment in different forms.

Tswizzle, is the Guardian your one and only source of news and issues?

I do what I have always doe, make myself aware of reality I am immersed in. I do not shrink or cower frm it, it is what it is.

“Gang rape is nothing new, why even bother being outraged by it”?

British police identify more than 270 individuals linked to online sexual abuse networks exposed by W5 investigation

British police have announced a co-ordinated national response to combat organized networks of offenders accused of drugging, sexually assaulting and secretly recording women before sharing videos and images of the abuse online.

British police have announced a co-ordinated national response to combat organized networks of offenders accused of drugging, sexually assaulting and secretly recording women before sharing videos and images of the abuse online.

In a press release on Thursday, investigators with the U.K.’s National Crime Agency (NCA) say they have identified more than 270 individuals linked to one online forum, leading to at least 14 investigations in the U.K. and internationally.

The announcement follows reporting by CTV News’ investigate unit W5, which infiltrated a global online community of men who allegedly drugged their wives and intimate partners before filming and sharing videos of the assaults. Led by managing editor Avery Haines, the undercover investigation exposed links between Canadian suspects and a broader international network.

One of those men was Hamilton, Ont., resident Bryan Hayward. In June, Hayward pleaded guilty to 21 charges involving seven women, including sexual assault, voyeurism and distributing intimate images without consent. In court, Hayward admitted to drugging, raping, videotaping and repeatedly sharing videos of the abuse. W5 identified Hayward through its investigation and alerted Hamilton police to his connection to the online network more than a year before his guilty plea. The NCA says organized drug-facilitated sexual assault is an “evolving threat” often rooted in intimate-partner relationships. Victims are allegedly sedated with drugs and may have little or no memory of what occurred. Investigators say offenders increasingly use online platforms to connect with one another, exchange material and normalize abusive behaviour across international borders. Investigators say more than 150 offenders and victims were identified through the effort, while hundreds of new international investigations were launched. The agency warns the true scale of the offending is likely far greater because many victims may never realize they were assaulted.

This is horrific.

Nirbhaya 10 years on: The lives the Delhi gang rape changed

A horrific gang rape and murder shocked the world in 2012 - has anything changed for women in India?

Nirbhaya 10 years on: The lives the Delhi gang rape changed

2012 Delhi gang rape and murder - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

The 2012 Delhi gang rape and murder, commonly known as the Nirbhaya case, involved the gang rape and murder of a 22-year-old woman, Jyoti Singh Pandey, in a moving bus on 16 December 2012 in Munirka, a neighbourhood in Delhi, India. The assault took place when Jyoti Singh, a physical therapy intern, was beaten, gang raped, and tortured in a private bus in which she was travelling with her friend, Avnindra Pratap Pandey. There were six other men in the bus, including the driver, all of whom raped the woman and beat her friend. She was rushed to Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi for treatment and, as the public outrage mounted, the government had her transferred to Mount Elizabeth Hospital, Singapore eleven days after the assault, where she died from her injuries two days later.[3][4][5] The incident generated widespread national and international coverage and was widely condemned, both in India and abroad. Subsequently, public protests against the Government of Delhi and the Government of India for failing to provide adequate security for women took place in New Delhi, where thousands of protesters clashed with security forces. Similar protests took place in major cities throughout the country. Since Indian law does not allow the press to publish a rape victim's name, the victim was widely known as Nirbhaya, meaning "fearless", and her struggle and death became a symbol of women's resistance to rape around the world.[6][7]

“An Adventure That Went Wrong”: Reasons Given by Convicted Perpetrators of Multiple Perpetrator Sexual Offending for Their Involvement in the Offense - PMC

Abstract

There is little empirical research examining the reasons behind multiple perpetrator sexual offending. A limited number of studies provide reasons for offending offered by perpetrators of this type of sexual violence, but only one published study exists where these perpetrators were interviewed regarding their offense. The Multi-Factorial Model of Multiple Perpetrator Sexual Offending (MPSO) proposed that various factors (individual, sociocultural, and situational) play a role in this type of sexual assault, noting in particular the importance of group dynamics and processes. In the current study, 25 convicted perpetrators of multiple perpetrator sexual offending housed in educational centers and prisons in Portugal were interviewed about their involvement and reasons for participating in the offense. The findings suggested that group processes and dynamics play an important part in this type of sexual offending. Furthermore, the results provided some evidence to support the factors proposed by the Multi-Factorial Model of MPSO. These findings have implications for prevention and treatment programs and for the assessment of offenders.

Introduction

Multiple perpetrator sexual offending (MPSO)1 is an international phenomenon that has been present throughout history and which manifests in various settings, including street gangs, college fraternities, sports teams, in prison, and during war and civil unrest (da Silva, Harkins, & Woodhams, 2013). In the U.S., it is estimated that between 10 and 33% of sexual assaults are committed by multiple perpetrators (Franklin, 2004). Similar figures have been reported in countries such as South Africa (9–27%; Jewkes, Sikweyiya, Morrell, & Dunkle, 2009), Australia (23%; Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2004), and the UK (11–19%; Curran & Millie, 2003; Kelly, Lovett, & Regan, 2005; Wright & West, 1981).

wtf is up with this?

The family of a suicidal British woman who flew to the US for a 'violent death' after meeting a man in an online fetish chatroom has paid tribute to the 'gentlest soul'.
Sonia Exelby, 32, boarded a plane from Portsmouth to Marion County in Florida where she was found dead on October 17 last year. Dwain Hall, a 52-year-old father-of-two, was arrested by investigators over Ms Exelby's death and is expected to face trial later this year. In footage seen by police, Ms Exelby was described as sitting on a chair 'looking dishevelled' and with multiple bruises across her face, neck and breasts – after being tortured by Hall who told police he used the name 'alphasadist' on fetish websites.
