French Surgeon Joel Le Scouarnec Sentenced to 20 Years for Child Abuse
Joel Le Scouarnec, a prolific French paedophile, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for sexually abusing hundreds of victims, mostly minors, but victims and advocates are disappointed that the sentence does not include preventive detention, which could have kept him incarcerated longer or under supervision after release. The court emphasized the legal limits and his age, while victims and their lawyers call for harsher laws and longer sentences to prevent future offenses.
