French judges plan to deliver hugely anticipated verdicts this week in historic drugging-and-rape trial.
Victim , Gisèle Pelicot , has been the epitome of steely dignity and resilience through trial.
Her now ex-husband's sordid library of homemade abuse videos helped lead police to 50 men accused of drugging her.
Campaigners against sexual violence hope for exemplary prison sentences.
The hearings have sparked wider debate in France about whether the country's legal definition of rape should be expanded to include specific mention of consent.
Some defendants argued that Dominique Pelicot's consent covered his wife, too.
Prosecutor Laure Chabaud appealed to the judges for a verdict that will make clear “that ordinary rape doesn't exist”.
