The men today found guilty of raping of Gisèle Pelicot were named colloquially across France as “Monsieur-Tout-Le-Monde,” which translates to “Mr. EveryMan.”

The name references the fact that the men were from a cross section of society. The youngest defendant is 27, while the oldest is 74.

Their professions range from a nurse, journalist, someone in the military, hotel manager, teacher and a prison guard.
