A Beverly Hills doctor was charged Monday with drugging and raping a woman who worked for him — and police say there could be other victims.

The physician allegedly used high hourly pay to entice potential victims to work at his office.

Dr. Babak Hajhosseini, who founded the Beverly Hills-based Wound & Burn Centers of America, was arrested on Nov. 26 by the Los Angeles Police Department after one of his employees reported that he had sexually assaulted her, according to officials.


Police said the doctor used job recruiting websites to offer potential victims high hourly pay to entice them into working for him. Once they did, police said, Hajhosseini would pressure them to work overtime at his house.

One employee alleged that she was pressured to drink alcohol at Hajhosseini's residence and that she promptly lost consciousness, police said.

Hajhosseini sexually assaulted her and recorded it, according to the LAPD.

On Dec. 23, the Los Angeles County district attorney's office charged Hajhosseini with two counts of rape by use of drugs and one count of rape of an unconscious person, among other charges.

It had taken a couple of weeks of negotiation but Joe finally got the deal he wanted and drove out of the dealership in his brand new Explorer. His girlfriend knew his real motivation for buying a utility vehicle was because he loved to go four-wheeling on Saturdays with his friends and felt a little conspicuous when he was always doing the "riding" and never the driving. Joe arrived and ran into her house as excited as a nine-year-old boy with his first bicycle. Mary was working at her computer as Joe came up behind her, gave her a big kiss on the cheek and said, "C'mon, c'mon, let's go! Let's go for a ride." They jumped into the Explorer and headed out of town. After a few minutes, Joe pulled over to the side of the road and invited Mary to drive. She got behind the wheel and found that she really enjoyed the sensation of sitting up so high with a great view of everything ahead of her. Joe instructed, "Hang a left here" and as Mary follow...
The owner of a large southwest Alabama car dealership derided as "Taliban Toyota" by a competitor has been awarded $7.5 million in damages after a jury trial for his slander claim. Iranian-born Shawn Esfahani, owner of Eastern Shore Toyota in Daphne, Alabama, sought $28 million in compensatory and punitive damages from Bob Tyler Toyota, claiming employees at that Pensacola, Florida-based dealership falsely portrayed him as an Islamist militant to customers. "The feeling I received in the courtroom for the truth to come out was worth a lot more than any money anybody can give me," Esfahani told Reuters on Tuesday. Esfahani's lawsuit said that Bob Tyler sales manager Fred Kenner told at least one couple considering buying from Eastern Shore Toyota in 2009 that Esfahani was of Middle Eastern descent and was "helping fund the insurgents there and is also laundering money for them." Esfahani, a naturalized U.S. citizen, fled his native Ira...
