“A doctor’s appointment should never end in sexual abuse,” said District Attorney Bragg. “This investigation is ongoing. I urge anyone who has been assaulted by a doctor to call our Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Bureau at 212-335-4308.”

“Carlos Andres Delgado Lopez allegedly brutally attacked two people, murdering Jan Carl Mesa and significantly injuring a woman,” said District Attorney Bragg. “Even more troubling, Mr. Mesa was stabbed while trying to deescalate the situation. I extend my deepest sympathies to Mr. Mesa’s family as they navigate this difficult time, and I wish the survivor a speedy recovery.”

Please call us at 212-335-4308.”
