Dominique Pelicot, who drugged and raped his wife and allowed 50 other men to rape her while unconscious, has been jailed for 20 years in France.
He also kept 20-thousand photos and videos of the attacks and abuse on his computer.
Victim Gisele Pelicot says the trial was a very difficult ordeal, and was among those there to hear dozens of verdicts and sentences being handed down today.
Crowds of supporters have gathered outside and applauded as she arrived.
She says she was inspired to keep fighting for justice by her grandchildren.
"They are the future and for them I wanted to really put this struggle forward."
Sky's Siobhan Robbins was at the court in Avignon.
"He is 72 now which means he will likely die in jail. In court, his daughter shouted at him; 'you will die alone like a dog in jail'.
"He has begged for their forgiveness and that will not come."
Dominique Pelicot repeatedly drugged his then wife and invited strangers to rape her while she was unconscious.
51 French men have been jailed for a collective total of over 400 years for their abuse of Gisele Pelicot whose husband arranged for men to assault her when she was unconscious.
