A retired surgeon accused of sexually abusing as many as 349 young children over decades – primarily his patients, in their hospital rooms – is facing justice at last, in the worst such case to come to light in France.
SAINTES, France — A retired surgeon accused of sexually abusing as many as 349 young children over decades – primarily his patients, in their hospital rooms — is facing justice at last, in the worst such case to come to light in France.It concerns four people allegedly targeted by Joel Le Scouarnec, 69, including two of his nieces. Other legal complaints against the doctor have piled up since the original investigation wrapped up, and prosecutors are preparing further action after this trial.
Le Scouarnec admitted to investigators that he had “already acted out” with children, including his nieces. He said he set limits for himself, and denied any full penetration. He claimed his diaries included an element of fantasy. Investigators say that under cover of medical acts, the doctor sexually took advantage of children as soon as they were alone in their hospital room. They say his strategy was to pass off sexual violence as a professional gesture, and to target patients so young they might not remember or understand what was happening.
