Caroline Darian remembers the day and time she received the call from her mother, Gisèle Pelicot, that changed everything: 20:25 on Monday, November 2020.

“She announced to me that she had discovered that morning that (my father) Dominique had been drugging her for about 10 years so she could be raped by different men,” Darian told CBS News affiliate BBC News in an exclusive interview. “It was like an earthquake. A tsunami.”

Just over four years later, a judge in France would find Dominique Pelicot, along with dozens of men he had invited to attack Gisèle, guilty of aggravated rape. He received the longest sentence allowed under French law for his crimes, 20 years in prison.

Gisèle Pelicot gave up anonymity and walked in court with her head held high every day, becoming a symbol of courage in the fight against sexual violence.

In 2020, after Gisèle’s phone call, Darian and her two brothers traveled to support their mother where she lived with their father in the south of France.

Then Darian got another call, this time from the police.

The officers showed her two photos they found on her father’s computer. The pictures showed an unconscious woman in bed wearing only a T-shirt and underwear.

“The officer said, ‘Look, you’ve got the same brown mark on your cheek … that’s you,'” Darian said. – Then I looked at those two photos differently… I was lying on my left side like my mother, in all her pictures.

Darian is convinced that her father drugged and assaulted her as well as her mother Gisèle, although he denies it.

“I know he drugged me, probably for sexual abuse. But I don’t have any proof,” she said.

There is no evidence of what may have been done to Darian, “and that is the case for how many victims? They are not believed because there is no evidence. They are not listened to, they are not supported,” she said.

Darian said Gisèle, amid the trauma of learning she had been drugged and raped more than 200 times by a man she trusted, struggled with the idea that this could have happened to her daughter.

“It’s hard for a mom to integrate it all in one go,” Darian said.

Now she’s advocating for other victims of so-called chemical subjugation, which is believed to be underreported because most victims and survivors don’t even remember it happening.

“When I look back, I don’t really remember the father I thought he was. I’m looking straight at the criminal, sex offender that he is,” Darian said. “But I have his DNA, and the main reason I’m so engaged with Invisible Victims is also, for me, a way to really distance myself from the guy… I’m completely different from Dominique.”

Darian says it’s a “terrible burden” to be the child of both the victim and the torturer.

“He should die in prison,” she said. – He is a dangerous man.
