AVIGNON, France - A court on Thursday sentenced a French man to the maximum term of 20 years in jail for committing and orchestrating the mass rapes of his now former wife, Gisele Pelicot, with dozens of strangers he recruited online.
I think you underestimate how long 20 years is. But yes, in europe we usually try to improve someone while in prison so we get back a funtioning member of society, not enslave them for life like in the US.
