Joel Le Scornak Vines has not named the lips of everyone in the western French seaside city, where the week’s designer surgeon was sent to 20 years in jail for raping and sexual abuse of about 300 of his patients – most subjects.
His face was not on the front page of the local newspaper in the morning after his guilty, and, as a oscillation between the gray rainy sky and bright sunlight, people are walking around 10 minutes walking around the boat festival harbor, which did not proceed to the court to not talk about one of the most huge abules of France.
“It is a shame in the Britney region,” said 83 -year -old pensioner Jole Laboru. “He started everything here.”
“How can he go away with it for so long?”
Anatomy
This is the question that was placing people in the wake at night: under the nose of the authorities, dressed in a white medical coat of respect, and in the heart of the middle class society, but Scorrencake Sex misused hundreds of children. The crime in the latest case against him was from 1989 to 2014 and in a dozen hospitals in Western France.
Le Scornennene often violated the victims, while they were subject to anesthesia or wake up with surgery. They wrote graphic details of these examples of rape or sexual harassment against children – and animals – and animals – in their magazines, which police discovered when they raided their apartments in 2017, when she was with a child accused of sexual abuse who lived at the next door.
He said, “I am spoiling a major. I am once for exhibition, Viour, Sadist, Masocist. I am scatological, a fetish, a pedophile. And I am very happy about it,” he wrote in a 2004 entry. Le MondePolice found a collection of dolls, some baby size, some toddlers size, around the apartment – according to the French newspaper.
Leaving opportunities?
The 2017 knocking at Le Scornene’s door occurred a decade after its first brush with the law. In 2005, the surgeon was accused and convicted in 2005. He was punished for four months suspended, but was able to continue working with children until he retired years later.
During the recent trial, the hospital administrators placed him on the employees and later hired him somewhere else after the 2005 sentence. Since the court did not issue prohibition on working with a professional restriction or minors, he argued that they were not obliged to impose additional restrictions.
Le Scouranec mainly worked in rural, relative Elli Resource Stapped Hospitals, where the loss of a surgeon could have shut down to the entire department.
So the questions were tested whether someone else has especially known about his ex -wife’s misuse and failed to work. He denied any knowledge. Further legal proceedings are expected, as the remaining people push to accountability beyond the scornak Himfal.
‘Major institutional failures’
Unlike most criminal cases, in which the police identify the suspects based on the reports of the victims, the case came up in reverse: investigators exposed the repetition of evidence and then evacuated the victims – many of whom had no memory of abuse and learned from the police.
Of them, 35-year-old was Louis-Mary, who was standing outside the Women’s Courthouse on the day of sentence along with other people. Together, they ignored a banner adorned with hundreds of paper sheets, each fertilized with a silhouette, which represents one of the victims of the Le Scornene. Some figures were with name and age – some of them were less than five. Many were labeled “anonymous”.
Louis-Mary told DW, “We realized that there were major institutional failures that have not been recognized till date.”
Le Scourneec accepted the guilt in all cases and asked for “no generosity” in his sentence. He apologized to most of his victims, asked for forgiveness, some of them were described only as mechanical. Le Scouarnec does not plan to appeal.
In a statement following Wednesday’s decision, the French National Medical Council (CNOM) “vowed to operate all the reforms needed to ensure that such a tragedy never arises again.” The French Health Minister promised to work with the Ministry of Justice to better save children and other patients from coming in contact with predators.
Maximum jail time
The convict was not surprised. Ragin, a mother of a survivor of a misconduct, told DW before reading that she was just “instigated.”
“As a parents, we are considered secondary victims. But it is difficult, knowing that we have left our children in the hands of this demon,” he said. “This is something like this for us, it is for us, it is for life.”
But not for scarnene. Under the French law, the maximum punishment for increased rape – whether it includes one victim or hundreds – is 20 years. And it is exactly that on Wednesday, the 74-year-old former doctor in the auction was given to the judges as well as the judge Aud Bureaucy to tell that she was bound by the boundaries of her country. Now, advocacy groups are calling for legislative reforms, emphasizing difficult sentences for serial rapists.
Call for improvement
The court imposed additional restrictions on Le Scornene, including measures to keep them away from children and animals and a ban on medical prescriptions, should they be released anytime.
And this is a real possibility. Le Scornenek has already spent several years in prison, who were in custody pre-trial for pre-testing along with four children, two of whom were his nieces.
Unlike the United States, the French jail sentence is not cumulative that some of his 20 -year term has already agreed and he deserves early release in the 2030s, subject to judicial approval.
On Wednesday, the judges decided against taking extraordinary steps to accept the Le Scornene as a safe psychiatry, citing their age, citing “desire to revise”.
And it shocked some of the remaining people and family members and disappointed bitterly. Xavier Vinet, whose son was abused by a child as a child, nodded with anger as he spoke to DW outside the court.
“We must have a lifetime prison time, given that we do not have death sentence here. We should bring it back – this is necessary for men like him,” Heer said.
Lost before justice
Vinet’s son Mathis never served justice. Hey died in 2021 in an overdose, which his family says was suicide.
“Hey, first a happy child,” said Vinet. “He felt great with his grandfather and with me.”
In 2018, like so many other people, Mathis and his family heard from the police that Le Scornene had written about abusing him while staying in the hospital, who was 10 years old.
“Then everything changed. Then he destroyed him. That’s what I can say about him,” Vinet said.
Le Scornenek admitted in the court that he bored “responsibility” for the death of Mathis and one of his young victims who died in 2020.
The remaining people ask: Why don’t people want to know?
There is no doubt that the case shocked France. According to the Reporting of the course of the French media, the 74 -year -old unphet gave countlessly distracting details of countlessly distinguished details to unpredictfully accepted his own granddaughter, when the 74 -year -old was unexpectedly accepted.
But the remaining people said that they are much less than expected.
It is not difficult to compare with the case of Giselle Pelicot, a French Voo gave his right to oblivion in a trial against her husband and about 50 other men raped her over a period of 10 years. Like the survivors of Le Scourneec, Pelicot only through the description of thesis crimes, because her husband had regular drugs to the bees and made them white to recruit men online.
Nevertheless, unlike the Pelicot trial, which attracted the attention of international media, but the scorrencase case was comparatively low profile. Back to Vans Marina, local student Emma Le Floch explained why she wonders that pre-surgling crimes paid less attention.
“Everything with children is even more forbidden with children,” said 21 -year -old. He said, “It is shocking to think that people impressed Live nearby – that I could easily take the doctor or was taken with him for an operation or something that could happen,” he said.
“We do not talk enough about sexual violence against children,” he said. “I think this is that we don’t want to talk about it.”
