A Brooklyn quack charged with raping a sedated patient and sexually assaulting seven others got a lenient six-year sentence in exchange for a guilty plea on Tuesday.
Michail Sorodsky, 63, received the deal – over prosecutors’ objections – from Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Guy Mangano.
“Our office strongly disagrees with the sentence and is exploring all possible avenues to ensure this defendant will never harm others again,” said Lauren Passalacqua, a spokeswoman for the state’s attorney general.
Prosecutors said they will pursue civil confinement after Sorodsky is freed to ensure he’s under constant supervision.
The phony physician who billed himself as a holistic healer was accused of inserting pro-biotic yogurt into women’s genitalia and, in one case, having intercourse with a sleeping patient.
He confessed in court to all charges – including first-degree rape and 11 counts of aggravated sexual abuse – after the indictment was consolidated from 102 to 20 counts.
Sorodsky has already spent three years in jail because he couldn’t meet his $33 million bond. He must serve about three more years to complete his sentence. He also agreed to 10 years of postrelease supervision and must register as a sex offender.
