LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A former nursing assistant accused of sexually
assaulting a quadriplegic patient on a ventilator while bathing her
could serve up to five years in prison after a judge sentenced him
Thursday.
Arrold Jean, 56, originally faced three criminal counts of sexual
assault involving a vulnerable person after his arrest in 2021. Jean
worked at Transitional Care of Las Vegas, a rehabilitation facility,
court documents filed by the victim’s attorney, Robert Murdock, stated.
The patient, who Murdock said in 2021 was in her 30s and was paralyzed
due to a multiple sclerosis diagnosis, told police that Jean allegedly
sexually assaulted her while he was bathing her, documents said. The
patient has since died, Murdock said Friday, though a civil lawsuit was
ongoing.
Jean pleaded guilty this summer by way of Alford, meaning he did not
accept guilt but agreed prosecutors had enough evidence to convict him.
As part of the plea deal, Jean pleaded guilty by way of Alford to one
charge of abuse of an older or vulnerable person. As part of the deal,
Jean agreed to serve at least one year in prison.
On Thursday, Clark County District Court Judge Tara Clark Newberry
sentenced Jean to 2-5 years in prison, documents said.
“I hope he stays in prison for the full five years,” Murdock said in a
statement. “And I hope he suffers every day for the rest of his life as
he made my client suffer every day for hers. Mr. Jean should never have
been in a position to do what he did and wouldn’t have, but for the
inaction of Transitional Care of Las Vegas and it’s absent owners. There
was no institutional control and that allowed Mr. Jean to prey upon my
client.”
According to the patient’s civil lawsuit filed against the facility and
Jean, he was responsible for bathing the patient two or three times a
week.
The lawsuit alleged during each bath, Jean sexually assaulted the
patient, documents said. The alleged assaults happened from November
2020 until May 2021. Police arrested Jean at the end of May 2021.
Records from the Nevada Nursing Board showed Jean’s license expired in
August 2021. He was previously reprimanded for “unprofessional conduct”
and “for failing to collaborate with other members of the health care
team” in 2016.
In an unrelated criminal case, Jean originally faced several felony
charges of sex assault against a child, attempted sex assault against a
child and lewdness with a child. Jean accepted guilt by way of Alford on
a charge of burglary in the case, records showed.
According to police, a woman came forward saying Jean had sexually
abused her when she was a child over the course of several years
beginning in 2010, documents said. The charges indicate the woman was
under the age of 14.
Jean has denied the allegations. Requests to Transitional Care of Las
Vegas have never been returned.
