NEW YORK — Robert Hadden, the former Columbia University gynecologist who prosecutors said"abused his position of power to assault patient after patient, year after year," is slated to be sentenced to 20 years in prison, but a federal court judge is mulling a request from his attorneys to speak.
"This case is like no other in my experience in terms of horrendous, beyond extraordinary, depraved sexual assault," Judge Berman said at the sentencing. Prosecutors previously asked for at least 25 years in prison contending that"the magnitude of the defendant's crimes is staggering and warrants a commensurate sentence."
Federal prosecutors alleged Hadden also assaulted"dozens of female patients, including multiple minors" between 1993 and 2012 while pretending to medically examine them.
