Former surgeon Joel Le Scouarnec has admitted to sexually abusing 299 patients in one of France’s largest child sex abuse cases.
A former surgeon on trial in France for sexually abusing 299 patients, most under 15, has admitted guilt for all the victims.
Joel Le Scouarnec, 74, has been on trial in Vannes since early March in one of France’s largest child sex abuse cases.
He has been accused of assaulting or raping patients, many under anaesthesia, at a dozen hospitals between 1989 and 2014.
Until now, Le Scouarnec had admitted guilt only on a case-by-case basis as the trial progressed, with attention focused on the detailed notebooks where he recorded the abuse.
During the investigation, he had denied many allegations, claiming he was performing his medical duties.
The former surgeon is already in jail after having been found guilty of abusing four children, including two of his nieces in 2020.
Le Scouarnec was never investigated during his career despite a 2005 sentence for owning sexually abusive images of children.
He continued to work until his retirement in 2017, after which police discovered diary accounts of abuse stored on his computers following accusations of rape from a six-year-old.
