Duggal
Continued from page A12 accounts of his practice, but “the judge eliminated the positive letters to only four.” The case against Duggal began in November 2012 when the Medical Quality Assurance Commission filed a statement of charges against him. An investigation by the state Department of Health and the Attorney General’s Office determined there was enough evidence to warrant a hearing, and in May 2013 Duggal’s medical license was suspended. In the settlement agreement accepted on Feb. 13, the commission found that Duggal had violated the Revised Code of Washington and commit-
ted unprofessional conduct in his practice. It also found that Duggal violated Washington Administrative Code by abuse and sexual misconduct with patients. The commission’s findings of fact state that Duggal mishandled the pain management of various patients, as well as the treatment of addiction to pain medication. It also states that Duggal did not adequately examine patients. The findings of fact state that Duggal made sexual advances toward a patient. The patient was being treated for bipolar disorder, among other things, including pain management with medication, and Duggal told her that bipolar persons are sexually intense. When the patient questioned this, he told her, “I’m

a doctor, I’m a psychiatrist, and I’m bipolar … I know,” according to the findings of fact. The findings recounted one patient’s experience with Duggal’s sexual advances. The findings state he groped her in an examination room, “forcing his tongue down her throat,” and that he sent her sexually graphic text messages. When the patient did not reciprocate, Duggal told her that he was in charge of providing her pain prescriptions, the findings state. According to the findings, the patient complained she did not like the effects of the medications, but Duggal continued to prescribe them. When the patient changed doctors, the new doctor told her she was taking too many medications.
POULSBO — A house guest was shot by the homeowner after allegedly raping a woman Feb. 16. Marshaun Jeron T. Thompson, 32, of Poulsbo is charged with thirddegree rape. The homeowner called 911 to report the alleged rape of a 44-yearold woman, also a house guest. The homeowner told dispatchers that Thompson was being hostile and refused to leave. He then shot him. The bullet entered Thompson’s chest and exited his left arm, according to a Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office report. After being shot,
Thompson put on his shoes and left. Deputies found Thompson nearby walking on the side of the road. He was taken to the hospital. The homeowner told deputies that Thompson had had too much to drink and was offered the couch. The other guest was offered a spare bedroom. The homeowner told deputies that he awoke twice to noises after 2 a.m. He went downstairs both times. He said he heard Thompson in the spare bedroom with the woman and what sounded like kissing noises. The homeowner told deputies that he heard the woman
tell Thompson “no” and “stop.” The homeowner returned to his bedroom to sleep, believing that the situation would resolve itself, he told deputies. Later, the female house guest ran into their room crying, saying she had been raped. The fiancee took the woman to the hospital. The homeowner confronted Thompson, who told him that the woman came on to him, according to the sheriff’s report. Thompson claimed the sex was consensual. Thompson was being held Feb. 20 in Kitsap County Jail on $50,000 bail.
