Dr. Zhi Alan Cheng pleaded guilty to rape and sexual abuse in state court. He groped and digitally penetrated sedated female patients and raped multiple women at his apartment while they were unconscious. Videos of the assaults were found by law enforcement during a search of his home. Cheng is expected to receive a 24-year prison sentence. His medical practice was suspended in 2023 due to the charges. Prosecutors and a hospital spokesperson condemned his actions, calling them a betrayal of trust.
The level of violence and perversion displayed by Zhi Alan Cheng in sexually abusing multiple victims is compounded by the fact that he took an oath to do no harm as a medical professional.
Cheng joins a growing list of New York doctors to face charges that they sexually abused their patients, reflecting an alarming trend.
