Pour cette première audience d’un procès hors norme - 299 plaignants, plus de 60 avocats et quatre mois d’audiences - Joël Le Scouarnec s’est montré très attentif et a reconnu avoir « commis des actes odieux ».
Joël Le Scouarnec, a former surgeon accused of pedophilia, acknowledged his guilt on the first day of his trial in Vannes on February 24, 2025. This trial, which is more open than his previous one in 2020, where he was convicted for abusing four children, has attracted significant media attention, including international outlets. The judge emphasized his responsibility, and Le Scouarnec admitted to his crimes. The first day was technical, ending without incident, with future sessions to include testimonies from his family and victims.
