Cops: Nursing Aide Tried To Fellate Patient
Man victimized during annual physical
SEPTEMBER 19--While conducting a physical exam, a Florida nursing assistant “opened his mouth and placed it around" the penis of his patient, according to police who arrested the health care worker on a sexual battery charge.
Investigators allege that Roger Cala Martin, 41, was examining the victim’s “bare genitals” when the battery took place around 9 PM Tuesday evening in the Clearwater office of Dr. Eduardo Palanca (seen below).
The victim, cops say, was getting an annual physical when he was subjected to Martin’s “unprovoked and unsolicited” sexual contact. The man “immediately backed up and left the exam room, notified the doctor and called 911.”
After being read his rights, Martin reportedly “admitted to placing his mouth on [the victim’s] penis,” cops say.
Seen above, Martin was arrested by Clearwater Police Department officers on a felony sexual battery charge and booked into the county jail. He was released from custody yesterday morning after posting $10,000 bond.
Martin has been licensed in Florida as a certified nursing assistant since 2010. His license is in the name “Roger Cala.”
Martin’s home address is listed as a 4000-square-foot home owned and occupied by Palanca, a 56-year-old primary care physician. (1 page)
