In Gard, a man sentenced to 18 years of criminal imprisonment for drugging, raping and filming six women

The 66-year-old man tried in Gard for having drugged, raped and filmed six women was sentenced on Friday November 13 to 18 years of criminal imprisonment, noted ICI Gard Lozère at the hearing. Yann de Carné was on trial before the Gard criminal court for having drugged, raped and filmed six women between 2018 and 2023. His sentence to 18 years of criminal imprisonment is accompanied by a two-thirds security period, specifies ICI Gard Lozère, even if two rapes were not taken into account.

The sentence is slightly below the requirements of the attorney general, who had requested 20 years of criminal imprisonment on Friday morning. The sentence is accompanied by a socio-judicial monitoring measure, imposed for five years. He is also prohibited from exercising a profession in contact with minors.

Faced with his victims on Friday, Yann de Carné once again made a point of apologizing: “I betrayed you (...) I apologize for what I did. You had the courage to come to the hearing. What I did is unforgivable,” reports HERE Gard Lozère. According to medical reports, all the victims ingested Zolpidem, the sleeping pill used by Dominique Pelicot in the Mazan rape case.
