Ex-USC gynecologist George Tyndall pleads not guilty to sex abuse charges
LOS ANGELES - Wearing a blue suicide-prevention vest, George Tyndall, the gynecologist accused of sexual misconduct toward hundreds of University of Southern California students, pleaded not guilty Monday to charges of sexually abusing 16 patients at the campus clinic where he practiced for decades.
Following a couple of days in the hospital after complaints of chest pain, a disheveled-looking Tyndall made his first appearance in court since his arrest last week on 29 felony counts.
The 72-year-old former USC physician appeared in jailhouse clothing, with matted and uncombed hair. He did not address the judge
