CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- A former North Carolina dentist accused of using syringes to squirt semen into the mouths of female patients was charged Monday with multiple misdemeanor counts of assault on a female.
A Mecklenburg County grand jury indicted Dr. John Hall on seven counts of assault on a female. He was charged with assaulting six patients, including one of them twice, over an eight-month period in 2003.
Hall, 44, who practiced in nearby Cornelius, is expected to turn himself in at the Mecklenburg County jail on Wednesday. He faces up to 120 days in jail if convicted on all the charges.
Hall could not be reached for comment. In the past, he has denied the allegations, calling them "bizarre and sensational."
Assistant District Attorney David Maloney, who sought Monday's indictments against Hall, would not comment on the charges.
"We knew these indictments were coming," said defense attorney George Laughrun. "This is just the first step in the process. My client is anxious for the process to get started and get this behind him for himself and his family."
The North Carolina Board of Dental Examiners revoked Hall's license in August after six former patients testified in Raleigh that the dentist made them swallow what they now believe was his semen.
In testimony before the dental board last summer, Hall denied the allegations.
"I have never injected semen in any patient's mouth," he said. "I never would. I've got a 10-year-old daughter. That whole concept is so beyond me."
Police searched Hall's office and confiscated syringes after several employees said they were suspicious of the dentist's behavior. DNA tests on the syringes later showed they contained Hall's semen.

He sounds so oblivious to the fact that people are accusing him of this. I wonder how the hell he is going to explain his semen filled syringes found in his office. I mean, that's not normal.

Man, that's not proof. He could have been injecting that semen into anything!

COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho - A teenager has agreed to admit to three counts of disturbing the peace after anonymously sending semen-frosted brownies to a fellow student. The recipient shared the treat with two other teens, police said.
They said the 17-year-old Coeur d'Alene High School student was upset after a prank in which the other student put peanut butter in his cheese sandwich days before. He told a school resource officer that "he hated peanut butter and it made him more mad than he could explain," according to the police report.
The teen later told School Resource Officer Jeff Walther that he got the idea of putting his semen on the brownies from the movie "National Lampoon's Van Wilder," in which characters send pastries filled with dog semen to a fraternity house. advertisement
The student was arrested and booked into a juvenile detention center. He has since been released on a judge's order that he has no contact with the students who ate the brownies.
The youth is to be sentenced on April 4 on the three misdemeanor counts, which are each punishable by up to 90 days in detention, prosecutors said.
The victims' parents were notified and the children were tested for anything that could have been transmitted through the body fluid, although Panhandle Health spokeswoman Susan Cuff said the chance of the students' health being affected would be "extremely remote."
School Superintendent Harry Amend declined comment on any school discipline against the teenager.

A couple things about these stories.
First, I think that it is hilarioous that all they could book the kid in Idaho for was disturbing the peace. I mean, what else could they do? There's no harm done, it's not really sexual assault or anything like that, so it falls into the ultimate criminal catchall, disturbing the peace. (Disturbing the piece? )
Second, how does anyone CATCH someone who has done this sort of thing? The kid probably told someone he had done it, but his victims probably wouldn't have even known unless he spilled it (no pun intended). I mean how much semen would you have to put on a batch of brownies for someone to taste it? Barf yet? OK, let's move on.
The doctor sure as hell wasn't going to be telling anyone he was doing this, so I really wonder how anyone caught him. How does this process progress? "I thought I tasted something funny at the dentists office..."
Food for thought (again, no pun intended).

This is the original article from the old board:
from the Associated Press
POSTED: 11:11 am EDT July 26, 2004
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Former employees of a dentist claim the man made female patients unwittingly swallow his semen during visits to his office in Cornelius.
Dr. John Hall is accused by the state dental board of violating dentistry's standard of care, engaging in immoral conduct, and committing sexual assault or battery.
Six former patients -- including a 14-year-old -- say he tricked them into swallowing his semen. A seventh claims he jumped on top of her in the dental chair and "began to gyrate against her lower body in a sexual manner." The dental board suspended Hall's license Nov. 5, after police began investigating allegations by two former employees. In February, it conditionally restored his license, barring him from being alone with female patients. Hall's lawyers say the dentist has been falsely accused by disgruntled former employees. He was collecting his semen because he was taking Propecia, a drug to promote hair growth, and was concerned about potential side effects that include low sperm count and diminished semen, his lawyer, Emerson Thompson, said.
The dental board heard testimony Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The hearing is to continue next weekend. The five-member panel will decide whether Hall can keep his license. The case is still being investigated by authorities in Charlotte, Cornelius and Mecklenburg County.
Hall's former assistant Cheryl Lynn MacLeod testified Saturday that she found it odd that Hall began asking her to leave a patient's side to retrieve items that he never used. She also became suspicious when she overheard him tell patients to "swallow" something, and when she saw him take a syringe out of his lab coat pocket while working beside a patient.
In May 2003, she and former office administrator Susie Hillman took the five syringes from office waste containers and Hall's lab coat pockets and gave them to police. Hall's lawyer, Thompson, suggested the substance Hall asked patients to swallow could have been a dental product. But in a sworn deposition read aloud Saturday, Hall's former dental assistant Rhonda Hamilton described several dental products used in Hall's office and none matched the patients' descriptions of what was put in their mouths.
When Cornelius police searched Hall's office Nov. 5, they confiscated five more syringes with Hall's semen from his desk, according to the board and hearing testimony.
Five of the six patients testified Friday. The first, a 40-year-old woman, said she objected when Hall began to put a substance from a syringe into her mouth during a procedure on Sept. 4, telling him: "That smells like sperm." She said Hall drew back and said, "You're crazy." She said she couldn't taste the substance because her mouth was numb.
Another witness, a 33-year-old woman, said Hall asked his assistant to retrieve something from another room during her appointment in May 2003. While the assistant was gone, she said Hall told her to lie back, open her mouth and swallow.
"When I swallowed I tasted it, and it was semen. ... He told me it was cleaning solution."She said she drove directly to her husband's office nearby and told him what happened, but he and a colleague dismissed the idea. She said she tried to convince herself she was wrong, and contacted police only after hearing about the investigation on the news.
The original story makes me laugh every time I read it.

Even if I thought I was tasting sperm at the dentist's office, there's no way I'd be brave enough to say to my dentist, "Ew, that tastes like sperm!" Besides, how much sperm do you have to drink before you can catch the taste when it's so far out of context.

I had my wisdom teeth out a few years ago and when I had to see the surgeon again for something else a few months later he kept calling me a naughty little girl and kept smiling ...i just laughed nervously, I don't even want to think about the why's. I know I was grateful when I woke up that I wasn't in pain, but I wonder just HOW grateful I was. Ew.
