A Suffolk Superior Court jury today convicted a medical assistant at the MGH Back Bay Health Center, 388 Commonwealth Ave. in the Back Bay, of six counts of indecent assault and battery for the way he went after patients in 2022 and 2023, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.
Damien Knighton, 41, of East Boston, will be sentenced on March 14, the DA's office reports.
Knighton was arrested in January, 2023 after a man reported him for what he did during what should have been a routine follow-up exam for shoulder and back problems: Knighton told the man to take off his clothes, then fondled his genitals and rectum.
Additional patients contacted authorities after news of the first incident was reported. His convictions today involved three patients, all men.
