French paedophile surgeon who abused hundreds jailed for 20 years – BBC News


Joel Le Scouarnec, the former surgeon who has admitted sexually abusing hundreds of patients, mostly children – many while they were under anaesthesia or waking up after operations – between 1989 and 2014 has been sentenced to 20 years in jail.

Le Scouarnec admitted the charges during a session held behind closed doors in March and was already in jail after being sentenced in December 2020 to 15 years for raping and sexually assaulting four children.

The former doctor has been on trial in Brittany since late February. During that time dozens of his victims have testified, telling the court how the abuse they sustained as children shaped their lives.
