Rapist worked at L.A. County hospitals despite reviews of record

A man who raped women as an on-duty Los Angeles police officer was hired by Los Angeles County as an X-ray technologist after he got out of prison, even though the job would leave him working alone and unsupervised with female patients. The man disclosed his criminal history in his county job application, and both the head of hospital human resources and a chief aide then signed papers that said there was no reason his convictions for rape should prevent him from doing the job, according to newly obtained records and interviews.
