Former VA doctor convicted of child molestation

SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — A federal court jury in Spokane has convicted Dr. Craig Morgenstern of child sex abuse, after hearing graphic evidence of the former Veterans Affairs doctor's secret life as a serial child molester.

The jury found Morgenstern guilty on all counts Tuesday.

The Spokesman-Review says he faces the possibility of life in prison when he is sentenced this spring by U.S. District Court Judge William F. Nielsen.

The 47-year-old Morgenstern was convicted of drugging six boys with prescription sedatives and then filming himself performing sex acts on them.

The FBI and local investigators found 1 million images and videos of child pornography on various computers and drives belonging to Morgenstern.
