Paedophilia: Breton surgeon accused of rape, 200 potential victims

[Source France 3 Regions]: How many patients did Jonzac’s surgeon assault (or rape) in Brittany? The gendarmes are still conducting their investigation, but in the diaries of the doctor (placed in pre-trial detention since 2017 in Charente-Maritime) there are many sexual abuses that have been committed since the 1990s... Period during which he practised in Morbihan. It is thanks to the revelations of a 6 year old girl in April 2017 that the affair erupts in the town of Jonzac in Charente maritime. A six-year-old girl who broke the silence. To the gendarmes she says she was raped by her neighbor a surgeon, Joel Le Scouarnec. Testimony that leads investigators to a sexual predator. At his home, they find incriminating elements. Notebooks that will lead to the opening of another investigation. It is based on the writings contained in these famous notebooks or more than 200 names of children appear there, some of which he operated on when he was a surgeon in Brittany. Joel Le Scouarnec has worked in various hospitals in Brittany including Vannes Lorient Quimperlé and he was already sentenced in 2005 in Vannes to four months in prison with suspended for detention of child pornography images. Dozens of potential victims are then identified and heard, some of them learning from the police about the facts they did not know, since it was sometimes in the recovery room. Imprisoned in Saintes prison in 2017, the 66-year-old practitioner was sent back to court in March for sexual assault and rape of four girls. But in the context of this new investigation if all the pages are the account of thirty years of pedophilia and not of acts and fantasies mixed, it would be one of the biggest case of pedophilia in France.
