Over the course of nearly a decade, a man in the south of France is accused of recruiting strangers online to rape his wife after drugging her with anxiety medication. He and 50 co-defendants, including civil servants and firefighters, are to be judged in a trial beginning Monday in a court in Avignon and expected to last several months.

    Hope all of them get ousted as the guys gang raping an unconscious 70 year old lady. I really feel the other prisoners would really like to share their feelings on the matter

      Prison yard justice is just a flaw in a countries criminal justice system. I’d rather they receive an adequate punishment and become reformed than get murdered or raped in jail. Probably won’t happen but that’s how a prison should work in an ideal society and that’s what we should work towards.

        You are right actually, reform is better, and as a society we should be able to use prison time to make offenders better members of society.

        But as an individual, for personal reasons, I despise any sexual acts of violence, so my previous message was written in anger. Even though I know the right answer is compassion and reason, I still wish them harm, unfortunately.

        But I know I have hate I have to work on, but this is less about me and what I wish. It is about this poor lady getting justice however the French courts decides
