Mark Wisner
(KNZA)--A former physician assistant has been found guilty of sexually abusing four patients at the Leavenworth veterans hospital.
The verdict came late Wednesday afternoon in the trial of Mark Wisner, of Horton.
The Leavenworth Times reports Wisner was found guilty of all charges--including one felony count of aggravated sexual battery, one felony count of aggravated criminal sodomy and three misdemeanor charges of sexual battery.
The crimes occurred between 2012 and 2014 while Wisner was working at the Eisenhower VA Medical Center.
Sentencing is scheduled for Sept. 29 in Leavenworth County District Court.
The trial began Monday.
Wisner surrendered his medical license in 2015 after at least seven patients accused him of abuse, and medical regulators said at the time that others could come forward. Multiple former VA patients have sued in federal court, some seeking $3 million in damages.
