"Miglietta met the 28-year-old alleged victim through a networking event in the medical field, according to the indictment. The indictment says the woman allegedly went to Miglietta's Financial District apartment on June 5 expecting to discuss her business ventures. Miglietta allegedly kissed her without her consent, and when she attempted to push him away, he lifted his shirt and displayed a firearm that he said was loaded, the indictment said."
"Prosecutors said that, as the woman allegedly repeatedly said "no," Miglietta put the gun on a coffee table next to the woman's head before orally raping her and attempting to vaginally rape her. According to the indictment, the woman was able to escape, claiming she had a meeting she could not miss. "As alleged, this prominent doctor used his position to lure a woman to his apartment under the guise of professional networking and mentorship," Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said in a press release. "Instead, he allegedly displayed a firearm that he said was loaded, and sexually assaulted her as she repeatedly said no.""
