During the investigation, it turned out that the man poured his wife into food and drinks a large dose of Lorazepam (a potent tranquilizer from the group of benzodiazepines), and she lost consciousness. Then, strangers who raped a woman came to the house of the spouses. Dominic Pelico found all these people in the chat “without its knowledge” on the COCO.GG website. It was closed by court decision only in June 2024: in its history, the portal appeared in 23 thousand trials regarding the sale of drugs, sexualized violence and pedophilia.
In discussions, Pelico was hidden under the pseudonym. He told potential rapists that after using sleeping pills could do with his wife what she usually refused. According to the National Medical Insurance Fund, Pelico received 450 Lorazepam tablets a year. The drug was prescribed by the doctor.
The investigation found that Giselle Pelico raped at least 92 times - this lasted from 2011 to 2020. Three crimes were committed after the first detention of Pelico - he went on bail and continued to contact men on the forum. He stayed free for a month until the video is discovered. After that, he was charged with rape, detained for the second time and sent in custody.
The victim does not remember a single case - she learned about the sexualized violence against her only during the investigation.

72-year-old Giselle Pelico said that her husband was always an attentive and loving person. She was sure that they had a great relationship. They lived together for 50 years, three children were born in marriage: a daughter and two sons. According to friends and neighbors of the Pelico family, the couple was friendly, but Dominic constantly called his wife “whore” and said that this was a compliment.
Before it became known about rape, Giselle often complained about fatigue, memory failures and the fact that she was sleeping for too long. The doctor suspected that these were signs of Alzheimer's disease.

After watching a video with his rape, Giselle Pelico said: “I was sacrificed to the altar of vice. You see a dead woman on the bed. This is not a ward, this is an operating room. They considered me a garbage bag, a rag doll. These are not sex scenes, these are rape scenes. This is unbearable. "
The examination found in Giselle four sexually transmitted diseases: Dominic Pelico asked the rapists not to use condoms.

I will now have to live with this, ”she said.
In 2022, Caroline wrote the book “And I stopped calling you a dad”, in which she talked about how the facts of sexualized violence affected her life and family. All children Pelico really stopped calling him a father after they saw evidence of crimes. Caroline also became the president of the #Mendorspas movement, whose participants are fighting against abuse using psychoactive medicines.
In addition, the investigation found that Pelico secretly took off his sons in the bathroom when they came to visit them. He hid the phone in a handbag for toiletries, and posted the video on the same site where he found rapists. According to the grandchildren of Pelico, he often offered them to play “in the doctor” and agreed to buy them toys only if they undressed. Dominic himself Pelico denies these accusations.
