FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – A South Florida doctor is accused of sending nude photos of himself to a 13-year-old child, investigators said.
Stewart Bitman, 64, was arrested Tuesday in Parkland after a SWAT team carried out a search warrant at his home and seized multiple electronic devices, the South Florida SunSentinel reported.
Bitman is the second Broward County doctor to be accused this month of crimes involving a child. On Jan. 12, investigators arrested pediatrician Micahael Mizrachy, 49, on charges that he sent nude photos of himself to a child.
The Broward Sheriff's Office said in a statement that deputies worked with the Coral Springs Police Department after learning in April about the photos and text messages sent to the child.
