Gisèle Pelicot, "a woman totally destroyed" and cheered by those attending the trial; fifty-one accused, in addition to her husband; a swarm of journalists following the hearings; debates in society; a worldwide echo... Started on September 2 in Avignon before the criminal court of Vaucluse, the trial of the Mazan rapes is a shock. Why such an echo? What does it tell us about the acceptance of rape in our society, and also about the lack of knowledge that we have of the definition of what rape is? What does it reveal about the judicial system? Will this trial be able to drive a wedge into the "rape culture" that continues to permeate society and the courts? How can we better judge cases of sexist and sexual violence and better care for victims? Like the major rape trials that have marked history, will the Mazan trial, still ongoing, be an opportunity for legislative changes by introducing the notion of consent into the definition of rape? On Tuesday, November 12 at 7 p.m. live, ten lawyers specializing in sexist and sexual violence will discuss and debate the lessons of this trial, but also the media and judicial treatment of the cases they have argued before the courts. A program prepared by Marine Turchi, Cécile Hautefeuille, Lénaïg Bredoux and Sophie Boutboul, and hosted by Mathieu Magnaudeix, Marine Turchi and Cécile Hautefeuille. Our guests: Anne Bouillon, lawyer; Carine Durrieu-Diebolt, lawyer; Sophie Obadia, lawyer; Elodie Tuaillon-Hibon, lawyer; Zoé Royaux, lawyer; Seydi Ba, lawyer; Frédérique Pollet, lawyer; Laure Heinich, lawyer; Lorraine Questiaux, lawyer; Anouck Michelin, lawyer.
