A Buford man faces criminal charges after he groped a female nurse who was caring for him at Northeast Georgia Medical Center-Braselton.
HCSO NARRATIVE :
“A Hall County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) deputy responded to the hospital campus on Friday night…to investigate an assault complaint.
The investigation determined the nurse was in the room occupied by Donald James Lavoie, 69, attempting to place a blood pressure cuff on his arm, when he grabbed her buttocks with his hand. Mr. Lavoie also directed lewd sexual comments toward the nurse during the incident.
Mr. Lavoie remained under medical care at the hospital until Saturday, Feb. 22. An HCSO deputy then transported him from the hospital to the jail. At this time, Mr. Lavoie remains in jail on a charge of sexual battery on a person over 16-years-old. He has a bond of $5,700.”
