“When I look back, I don’t really remember the father that I thought he was. I look straight to the criminal, the sexual criminal he is,” Darian told the BBC. “But,” she continued, “I have his DNA and the main reason why I am so engaged for invisible victims is also for me a way to put a real distance with this guy. I am totally different from Dominique.”
Darian’s description of her father is unsparing. She views him not as a sick individual but as a “monster” who “knew perfectly well what he did.” She firmly believes that he “should die in prison.” “He is a dangerous man,” she said of Dominique, adding that “there is no way he can get out [of prison]. No way.”
