What was it like to see all those men in the courtroom day after day?
Did your attitude towards them change over time?
You mentioned the role of the videos, and up until right before the trial, you had never watched the videos of the rapes.
And it's inconceivable, actually, to have to sit through that and watch that happen to you.
But as you know, without those videos...
You wouldn't have had the proof to show these men were lying about what had actually taken place.
And you probably wouldn't have been believed.
How do you think about that?
One of the things that people noticed about you during the trial was how collected you were, how well you dressed, how elegant you were.
And you wrote in the book, you had no choice but to be invincible.
That feels like a heavy burden.
One of the most moving things at the trial were all the women that came to support you.
Every day they were clapping, they were chanting, and you were getting all these letters.
What were people saying to you?
What were those interactions like?
In the end, Monsieur Pellicot was sentenced to 20 years in prison, the maximum.
All the others received varying sentences.
Was justice served?
Not all the men in the videos have been ID'd.
Some of them are still out there.
