>the parents of the children he killed cried out of pity for him at his trial and execution
Why were medieval people so much more virtuous than moderns?

To me it seems like he was a popular and successful young military leader who was smeared following a dispute with authorities over the ownership of a castle.

Gilles interrupts mass and captures the high-ranking priest Jean Le Ferron and retakes the castle of Saint-Étienne-de-Mer-Morte.
>29 July 1440
Gilles de Rais was accused by public rumour of raping and murdering numerous children, as well as of demonic invocations and pacts.

Really because that's not the sense you got from Wikipedia which is all "the vast majority of historians believe he was guilty".

He and Joan of Arc were part of a secret witch cult and practiced sex magic. That's why christchuds killed her and defamed him.

Nope, right.

>>every movie or tv show about Joan d'Arc
Name 3. Also you're wrong, the movie by the guy that made the Fifth Element it is implied once, but another time it is implied that he is good and loves Jean.

She was a virgin and forbade troops from raping their enemies. She remained a virgin until those false Christians defiled her and burned her, definitely what Jesus would want btw
