France itself is preparing to try to abuse children in the former surgeon

The former surgeon, who accuses the treatment of hundreds of young patients, often, is scheduled to trial this month in the largest experience of abuse children in French history.

Joel Le Skorararnik, 73, is accused of assaulting 299 children – the majority of his former patients – between 1989 and 2014, most of them in Brittany.

He admitted some charges, but not everything.

The trial in Vaness, northwest of France, follows a strenuous police that lasts for several years.

It is possible that it will raise uncomfortable questions about whether if it was shredded by his colleagues and the hospital administration that he used, although a warning from the FBI of the French authorities was indicating that he was referring to child abuse sites, and then I was given and then given the suspended sentence.

There seems to be an amazing number of opportunities to prevent the previous surgeon from contacting children has been missed or rejected.

His family also learned Bodofelia Lu Skoark, but they failed to stop him.

“It was the family's family who meant that ill -treatment allowed him to continue for decades,” one of the lawyers involved in the case told the BBC.

Le Scouarnec, who was previously a small surgery in the city, was in prison since 2017, when he was arrested on suspicion of raping his brother, now in his thirties, as well as a six -year -old girl and a young patient. In 2020 he was sentenced to 15 years in prison.

After his arrest, the police searched his home and found sexual dolls, more than 300,000 pictures of child abuse, and thousands of pages from the accurate collected diary that Le Scouarnec has recorded the attacks on his young patients over the age of 25 years.

He denied assaulting or raping children, on the pretext that his memoirs only separate his “imaginations.”

However, in several cases, he also wrote: “I am a homosexual.”

Le Scouarnec faces more than 100 charges of rape and more than 150 sexual assault charges.

Some of his former patients, all of whom are now adults, said they remember the wounds who touch them under the guise of medical examinations, and sometimes even when their parents or other doctors were in the room.

But since a large number of his alleged victims were under the influence of anesthesia when it was claimed that the attacks occurred, they did not remember the events and was shocked by the police and informed their names – as well as describing the charts of abuse – claiming that they appeared in the diaries of Lu Skuark.

French Daily Le Monde quoted the court's order against the former surgeon as saying: “Poetry Lu Skoark” with a full feeling “and I love the feeling of” flirting with the danger “through” calculated abuses. “

Some alleged victims said that the annoying revelation helped them understand the unjustified symptoms of the shock that their entire lives have burdened.

Lawyer Francesca Sata, who represents many alleged victims, told BBC that among her clients, “The families of two men remember, and they ended up taking their lives.”

Olivia Mons, from the France Fires Association, spoke to many alleged victims, and many of them only said blurry memories of events that they have never been able to “find words to explain them.”

When the case of the surgeon appeared, “I have provided them with the beginning of an interpretation,” Mrs. Mons said.

But she added that most of the alleged victims are people who had no memories of rape or attack, who were living a normal life before the police contacted them. “Today, many of these people are very vibrated,” said Mrs. Mons said.

A French media told that when the police showed her entry under her name in LE Scouarnec notes, memories were immediately immersed. She said. “He raped me.”

“He is shocked that he had given his confidence to a medical specialist, and it was difficult to shake,” Margox Kasx, a lawyer for one of the alleged victims, told the BBC that.

“He hopes that he will never be informed of what happened,” said Ms. Castics.

Another woman named Mary, who is now married in the mid -thirties, said that the police came to her home and revealed that her name appeared in the diaries of the surgeon, who was accused of abuse of children.

“Read what he wrote about me and I wanted to read it myself, but it was impossible,” she told Otelet France Bleu. “Can you imagine reading hardline pornography and knowing that it is about you, as a child?”

Mary said that she had seen mental health professionals for years because of the “issues” she faced regarding men, and that doctors asked whether she had suffered from childhood shock.

“I must believe that my memory protects me from it. But examining (the police) brought everything to the surface – pictures, feelings and memories returned to day after day,” she said. “Today, I feel this as if it had just happened.”

Mary added that when she was shown on the image of Lu Skoark, “Everything returned to me … I remembered his ice look.”

She wondered how the surgeon managed to commit his alleged crimes without anyone noticing it for a long time.

It is a painful question that must be explored by length during the experiment.

The first procedures of the court heard the allegations that many members of the Le Scouarnec family have been familiar with since the mid -1980s of his annoying behavior towards children, but they did not interfere.

His ex-wife denied knowing what he claims that her husband-and a father of their three children-did so until he was arrested.

Lu Skoark-a medical specialist and a lover of opera and literature-has long been his middle-class family's pride. He was a respectable medical practitioner in the medical city for many years, which has given him a great degree of protection in the workplace.

Lawyer Friedrich Benwest told the BBC.

Mr. Benoist represents the La Voix de l'nfant collection (the child's voice), which presses the highlight of what he calls “decisive institutional and judicial errors” that allowed if your Skoark would continue to neglect children for several decades.

In the beginning of the first decade of the twentieth century, the FBI alerted to the French authorities that Le Scorarink was arriving at the abuse sites of child treatment only for a four -month suspended penalty without commitment to medical or psychological treatment.

Mr. Benwitist said that the prosecutors did not share this information with the medical authorities and there were no consequences for Le Skoark, who continued his role as a surgeon, and often working on children and the subsequent care management.

When a colleague – who was already housing doubts against Le Shuraqk – read the charges against him in the local press in 2006, he urged the regional medical association to take action.

The voice of all the doctors – who refrained from them – voted that if your calmness did not violate the Medical Ethics Code, which states that doctors “must be in all circumstances worthy of trust and act with integrity and dedication in duty.” Sanctions have not been imposed.

“So we have evidence that all these colleagues know, and none of them did,” said Benwest. “There were many circumstances that meant that it could have been stopped; it was not, and the consequences were tragic.”

BBC called both the Regional Medical Association and the public prosecutors to comment.

Le Skuarka was eventually arrested when she told the six -year -old victim her parents that he had assaulted her. By that time, he lived as if he had retreated in a abandoned large house, surrounded by a child's size.

Mrs. Draiguez, a girls' lawyer, sat in front of Le Scorarink during the 2020 trial in the southwestern town of Santes. “His answers were cold and an account,” she said. “He is very smart, but he has never shown any sympathy.”

Ms. Draiguez said that the trial revealed more allegations of abuse of children within the Le Skorakin family, but the former surgeon had no special reaction and mostly looked on the ground.

At some point, Lurid videos were displayed for LE Scouarnec and dolls. “Everyone was watching the screen, but I was watching it,” said Ms. Draiguez. “Even this point, he always kept his counterpart. But at that moment, he looked up, staring at interest in the video. His eyes were shining.”

While Vannes is preparing to host the trial, three lecture halls were provided in a former university building near to accommodate hundreds of alleged victims, their legal representatives and their families. The trial begins on February 24 and is scheduled to continue until June.

Whether it is allowed for the press and the public to enter all alleged victims who abandon their right to a closed trial.

Many lawyers believe that the trial could be a moment of accounting for the authorities that have failed to take judgments against Le Skoark, in addition to an important moment for victims to express their shocks.

Ms. Satta said that although many people participating in this case do not have a memory of what happened to them, they were still victims, adding that the former surgeon had enjoyed “escape from silence” for a long time.

“The trial will be a moment for the victims to speak publicly,” Mr. Benwest agreed. “It will be terrible, in my eyes, if it is held behind the closed doors.”
