In October, the former UCLA gynecologist was found guilty of three counts of sexual battery by fraud and two counts of sexual penetration of an unconscious person.
"We are victims at the hand of a doctor and an institution that we trusted. Hopefully this verdict can empower other victims to come forward," victim Melanie Padilla said.
"Please, please pay attention to this day. Remember this day and protect patients. Take the actions that are needed to protect patients," she said. "He was convicted of five of 21 counts. That’s five too many. I take responsibility for that. I believe he should have been found not guilty of all 21 counts and we won't be happy until that occurs," Levine said."This is not over by a long shot."
