The trial of Joël Le Scouarnec, a former surgeon accused of sexually abusing 299 victims, mostly minors, has revealed shocking details.
Over 25 years, Le Scouarnec allegedly committed these crimes undetected, even by colleagues.
Investigators had to inform hundreds of potential victims, as many were unaware of the abuse they suffered during hospital stays.
The psychological toll on victims has been severe, with many experiencing lasting trauma.
Witnesses, including former colleagues, claim ignorance of his actions, raising questions about systemic failures.
The trial continues to uncover the extent of one of France's most significant pedophilia cases.
