DALLAS (AP) – A Texas doctor accused of sexually abusing several patients has been convicted of assaulting a woman in her 70’s who was in his care.
A jury convicted 45-year-old Donald Ozumba of aggravated sexual assault of an elderly person in Collin County. The trial now moves into the punishment phase, where the orthopedic surgeon could face a life sentence.
The Texas Medical Board accuses Ozumba of sexually assaulting nine patients and inappropriate sexual conduct with four others. The board suspended his license within a week of his 2017 arrest.
In the case prosecuted this week, the victim said she was being treated for a physical disability when Ozumba used his finger to illegally touch and penetrate her.
