Gisèle Pelicot spoke of her “very difficult ordeal” after 51 men were all found guilty Thursday in the drugging-and-rape trial.

Frenchwoman Gisele Pelicot, who survived a decade of sexual abuse by her husband and dozens of strangers, said she hoped her ordeal would help make the world a better place for "women and men alike" as her former spouse was jailed for 20 years.

In the case of Gisele Pelicot's mass rape trial in France, dozens of men, including her ex-husband Dominique Pelicot, were found guilty of raping and sexually assaulting her.
