During their investigation, police said 20 women gave the same account of the doctor sexually assaulting them while doing the exams.

Cameras

Investigators seized cameras and computer equipment from the office of Moroney who had been a gynecologist for about 40 years.

Detectives announced this week they went through the footage and identified a number of patients by cross-checking timestamps with the GP’s appointment records.
