L’ancien chirurgien est actuellement jugé pour violences sexuelles sur 299 de ses patients, pour la plupart mineurs au moment des faits.
A new preliminary investigation has been opened by the Rennes prosecutor's office to identify potential unidentified or newly declared victims of Joël Le Scouarnec, who is currently on trial in Vannes for sexual violence against 299 patients. Despite previous investigations and media coverage, some victims may still be unidentified. The investigation will focus on "sexual assault and rape," with charges to be refined based on the evidence. Le Scouarnec's lawyer stated he would cooperate with the new investigation, while maintaining his presumption of innocence. The investigation was prompted by the potential for unidentified victims, some mentioned in Le Scouarnec's journals, who may have been missed by previous efforts, according to legal representatives.
