Dr. James Heaps was convicted in October of three counts of sexual battery by fraud and two counts of sexual penetration of two patients.
A disgraced UCLA gynecologist was sentenced to more than a decade behind bars this week for sexually abusing patients.
It was subsequently revealed that complaints about Heaps’ behavior previously went unaddressed until late 2017 when a formal investigation was initiated by the university’s Title IX office, the newspaper reported. Hundreds of his victims also sued UCLA for allegedly ignoring their complaints and stifling rumors of Heaps’ abuse at the student health center, the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and his campus office.Heaps will also be required to register as a sex offender.Heaps – who already spent more than a year in prison while awaiting trial – appeared in court Wednesday in an orange jumpsuit. He did not address the court after his sentence was read.
