A verdict is expected on Wednesday for Joel Le Scouarnec, a former surgeon convicted of sexually abusing hundreds of patients, mostly minors, between 1989 and 2014. He has admitted to abusing 299 victims, often while they were under anesthesia. Le Scouarnec is already serving a 15-year sentence for previous offenses and faces an additional 20 years. Victims have testified about the lasting impact of the abuse, and there is public outrage over the medical establishment's failure to prevent his continued practice despite prior convictions. The trial has drawn attention, but many feel the victims have been overlooked. Teljes cikk (bbc.com europe)
