A doctor at Joint Base Lewis-McChord is facing dozens of sexual abuse charges involving 41 patients in a case that has also ensnared the Army in allegations that it failed to protect servicemen at the base.
Maj. Michael Stockin pleaded not guilty in April to 47 charges of abusive sexual contact and five charges of indecent viewing, according to Michelle McCaskill, spokesperson for the U.S. Army Office of Special Trial Counsel. The latter charge is defined as wrongfully viewing a person’s private area.
Stockin, 38, who’s been assigned to Madigan Army Medical Center since July 2019, is working in an administrative capacity in a non-clinical area of the hospital and doesn’t live on base, McCaskill told The News Tribune.
