Doctor Arrested for Los Angeles Sexual Assault
July 22, 2008
Topic: Sexual Abuse
The South LA doctor has been charged on multiple counts of sexual assault and is currently in jail. The number of sexual assault charges against Brown are numerous, and include allegations of molestation and sexual abuse of a teenager, among others. He faces up to 19 felony counts, and allegedly molested over 8 patients in a two-year period. Brown is currently being held on a $4 million bail. The amount is unusually high, and was specially requested by prosecutors who feared the doctor would use his Bermuda connections to make a sprint from the county.
The sexual assault cases only came to light after many women complained to police authorities that Brown had sexually molested them during the course of medical examinations. The string of charges includes sexual battery and sexual battery by fraud, and performing lewd acts on a 15-year-old. His sexual assaults are reported to have occurred during a two-year period between the 6th of November 2006 and the 31st of May 2008.
This isn’t the first time the good doctor has been trapped in a web of sexual wrongdoing. At the time of his arrest in fact, he was out on bail from an arrest in another sexual assault case. He had been booked on suspicion of sexually assaulting an 18-year-old woman in July of last year, as well as an undercover police officer who posed as a patient. These sexual abuse cases apparently happened at his office.
Sexual assault is not the only charge Brown needs to be worrying about. While the LAPD investigators have been looking into the cases of sexual assault reported against him, medical fraud investigators were involved in a similar investigation of their own against Dr. Brown. It turns out that not only was he an alleged molester, but he was also involved in a health care fraud scheme. According to the Medi-Cal Fraud and Elder Abuse unit, the charges of health care fraud against Brown came to light only when the investigators were looking into clinics run by Russians and Armenians. Physicians at these clinics, who have now been arrested on charges of fraud, reportedly told the investigators that they were introduced to the scheme by Dr. Brown himself. The scam seemed to have been a sweet one, with Brown getting a hefty percentage of their earnings as payment for his part in setting them up with a nicely profitable scam business. Brown also faces charges of over-prescribing painkiller medications.
This is obviously a man who cares zilch for the law. There are too many instances of all kinds of illegal and unethical acts. The patients who suffer traumatic sexual abuse at his hands in particular, are the ones who will need the most amount of help getting though their ordeal. The eight patients who have bravely come forward to report him, should now also go another step further, and claim compensation from this man.
