The Monster of Mazan, Big Deal

THE MONSTER OF MAZAN
On 60 MINUTES a story so deplorable it redefines the meaning of immorality. Mazan used to be an unremarkable little village in southern France. Today it's better described as a place of evil because it's now known that among its residents lived a monster. Dominique Pelicot pretended he was a loving family man when in fact he was a sexual deviant. His victim was his unsuspecting wife Gisèle, who he repeatedly secretly drugged and raped. That's horrific enough, but Pelicot also recruited more than 70 other men to join his criminal depravity that went on for almost ten years before it was discovered. However, while Gisèle Pelicot suffered terribly, there was no way she going to let the torture she endured ruin her life. At her husband's trial, she bravely agreed to waive her right to anonymity so the full extent of his nefarious behaviour would be exposed. Caroline Darian is the daughter of Gisèle and Dominique Pelicot, and in an exclusive interview with Dimity Clancey, she gives an insider's account of the case that shocked the world.

BIG DEAL
What makes Luke Combs such a big deal is that he's not. Sure, he's a country and western megastar, but as Adam Hegarty discovered, when you meet him off stage he's so disarmingly normal it's just like having a natter with a neighbour over the back fence. It's no wonder millions of people around the world love this bloke from North Carolina. For the past few weeks Luke has been touring Australia, playing to record crowds in packed-out stadiums. Seeing the joy he brings to his fans is, well, a joy to behold.
