Daughter of Rapist Condemns Father, Advocates for Change: “He Should Die in Jail”

Caroline Darian, the daughter of Dominique Pelicot, who stands accused of drugging and orchestrating the rape of his wife Gisèle by numerous men, has vocally expressed her belief that her father “should die in prison.” Her statement reflects the deep personal and emotional turmoil following the shocking revelations that emerged in November 2020, when she received a phone call that would change her life forever. Dominique Pelicot’s trial has captured public attention not only because of the heinous nature of the accusations but also due to the method of the crime — chemical submission. This crime often goes unnoticed because victims are unaware of their assault, a fact that has brought the issue into sharp focus. Caroline Darian, now 46, has emerged as a poignant voice in the discourse on sexual violence, particularly when facilitated by drugs.
In an in-depth interview with the BBC, Caroline discussed the profound impact this ordeal has had on her life. She shared the immense “burden” of being both the daughter of the victim and the accused, grappling with the harrowing realization that she could have been another victim of her father’s alleged crimes. This suspicion was fueled by the discovery of photographs on her father’s computer, showing her in compromising situations from her childhood, adding layers of complexity to her already tumultuous relationship with her father.
The case has not only devastated the Darian family but has also ignited a broader conversation about the nature of sexual violence, the use of date-rape drugs, and the psychological aftermath for those connected to such crimes. Caroline has taken on the role of an advocate for victims of sexual violence, emphasizing the need for systemic change in how these cases are approached, investigated, and prosecuted. She campaigns for better awareness, support systems for victims, and stricter laws against chemical submission.
The trial of Dominique Pelicot is ongoing, with Caroline Darian actively involved in ensuring that the narrative around her mother’s suffering and her own experiences contribute to a larger movement for justice and awareness. Her message is clear: such acts of violence must be met with the full force of the law, and society must do more to prevent, recognize, and respond to these hidden crimes.
Caroline’s journey from personal tragedy to public advocacy has been marked by pain but also by a resolute commitment to change. Her story resonates with many, serving as a catalyst for dialogue, education, and reform in the fight against sexual violence.
