Former French priest accused of sexually abusing some 75 boys when he worked as their scout chaplain on trial in Lyon

Bernard Preynat , a former priest accused of sexually assaulting 74 boys, leaves the Lyon courthouse, southeastern France, on January 13, 2020.

Preynat has admitted to abusing boys in the 1970s and 1980s, and told the court Monday, “I have heard the suffering of these people, which I'm guilty of causing. I hope that this trial can unfold as quickly as possible."The proceedings resumed on Tuesday, though some lawyers pleaded for a new delay. He wrote a letter that year to the parents of a victim who wanted him to leave the Scout association he led, reading: “I swear to you that since the start of the school year in September, absolutely nothing has happened between me and the children ... everything that happened has shaken me up a lot and made me think. I am not trying to justify myself since I am wrong. Let me finish the year normally.
