Episode Details

A St. Bernard Parish doctor, David Beary, turned himself in facing four misdemeanor sexual battery charges after allegedly touching patients’ breasts during medical procedures at the hospital. The warrant was issued after witness reports, and if convicted, he could face up to two years in jail — with sentencing potentially influenced by the doctor-patient dynamic. Ochsner Health, which runs the facility, says Beary wasn’t directly employed there and hadn’t treated patients since May. This isn’t his first legal trouble — his license was suspended in 1997 for self-prescribing, and he’s also been arrested for DWI in 2019. The investigation remains active.
