Robert Matthew Nolan could face more charges in Clark CountyPublished: 2009-06-21 16:55:42Author: New Albany Tribune | May 28, 2009The Clark County prosecutor says more charges are likely against
a chiropractor already charged with four misdemeanors related to
alleged improper touching of female patients.
On Wednesday, Dr.
Robert Matthew Nolan, whose practice is in Clarksville, entered not
guilty pleas on four counts of class B misdemeanor battery,
newsgathering partner WLKY-TV in Louisville reported.
“We’ve
received additional information since the media aired this story a few
days ago,” Prosecutor Steve Stewart told WLKY. “We should be filing
something new in the next few days.
The station reported that
Nolan’s lawyer asked the court for a trial to start as soon as possible
on the already filed charges, even requesting a pretrial hearing not be
held.
Court records allege that Nolan, 38, allegedly put his
hands under the underwear of a 21-year-old woman and brushed against
her private area Dec. 5, 2007. A 36-year-old woman from Jeffersonville
told The Evening News that Nolan took her into a back room, told her to
take off her clothes and then touched her crotch Sept. 26, 2008.
A
16-year-old girl claimed that on April 10, 2008, Nolan was giving her a
massage and began kissing her arm and back. She also claims he put his
hand down her pants and began rubbing her.
On May 7, a
17-year-old girl said that while she was receiving treatment, Nolan
touched her buttocks area and lifted her shirt above her bra line and
then later kissed her on the lips.
