NY nurse Kristen Johnson loses license over cell phone photo of male patient's genitals
A 26-year-old former central New York hospital nurse who took a photo of the intimate parts of an unconscious man has pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disseminating of unlawful surveillance photos.
According to the district attoey's office, Kristen Johnson of Fulton will be forced to give up her nursing license as part of a plea deal. She used an iPhone 5 to photograph an incapacitated male patient's genitals.
After a nine-month investigation, the Onondaga County District Attoey's office charged Johnson in May with two counts of second-degree unlawful surveillance, a felony, and one count of second-degree disseminating unlawful surveillance, a misdemeanor.
The felony charge against her was reduced as part of her plea, which also requires Johnson to spend three years on probation.
She will be sentenced in February.
