Hugues M has been prosecuted for “attempted rape”, having failed to achieve penetration.
She began doubting their entire relationship and thinks she might have suffered the same treatment as Gisele Pelicot.
One night in 2019 she woke up to her partner attempting to penetrate her digitally, Emilie O said. She launched a complaint, but it was dismissed for “lack of material evidence.”
She also experienced “dizziness” between September 2019 and March 2020, but investigators did not detect any substances that might have affected her at the time.
Gisele Pelicot has testified that for years she had strange memory lapses and other health problems and thought she might have had Alzheimer’s.
