Summary at a Glance

Le Scouarnec kept meticulous notes outlining his crimes, including one which read: “I am a paedophile and I always will be.” Prosecution evidence also includes a collection of 70 life size child dolls, which Le Scouarnec is said to have used for sexual gratification.

But a letter handwritten by Ms Le Scouarnec in 2010 that was also entered as evidence read: “I ask you to please protect my youngest son, the only one who does not know his father's past.” This was seven years before detectives arrested Le Scouarnec in connection with offences against minors.

Marie-France Le Scouarnec knew and protected her husband.” Referring to Ms Le Scouarnec's denials, Ms Arrighi said: “Reading such comments is truly disgusting.

Calling the couple “evil”, Ms Arrighi added: “Reporting sexual crimes and offenses against minors is a legal obligation.” Ms Le Scouarnec was due to give evidence in person in court on Tuesday, but was excused after claiming she had suffered an injury in a minor car accident.

In comments that were published and broadcast across France on Tuesday, victims described both Le Scouarnecs as “evil”, and called for Ms Le Scouarnec to be prosecuted too.
