Two elite Paris police officers have been convicted of raping a Canadian woman who had been invited to tour their police headquarters. They each won a 7-year stretch in the Greybar Hotel.
Emily Spanton, 39, waived her right to anonymity to pursue the case.
She told the trial she had been invited to tour the police HQ after meeting a group of officers in a bar, but when she went there she was gang-raped.
The headquarters, based at 36 Quai des Orfèvres in Paris, is legendary for its role in French crime literature and film.
The two men, Nicolas Redouane and Antoine Quirin - former members of France's elite BRI anti-gang force - had always maintained their innocence. They argued Ms Spanton had consented to sex.
