Hospital Worker Accused of Sexual Assault | Columbus News

A hospital transport worker, Boukhmis Baziz, 45, faces serious charges after allegedly assaulting a female patient in her room at Riverside Methodist Hospital on August 16th. The disturbing incident reportedly began when he massaged her calves, ignored her pleas to stop, and escalated to pinning her arms, climbing on top of her, covering her mouth, pulling down her gown, and groping her chest — all while she struggled to escape. He left just before 9 PM. Hospital officials have removed him from all facilities, citing zero tolerance for compromising patient safety, and he’s now jailed with a $75K bond, barred from the hospital and victim, with court next month.
