Guardian Could Face Charges

An adult guardian could face charges for taking money in exchange for allowing a Houston doctor access to a child. The child was one of at least four who had been sexually abused for years by the grandfatherly surgeon, prosecutors said.

Orthopedic surgeon Bernard Zacharia Albina was arrested on five charges stemming from years of alleged sexual abuse of four prepubescent boys. He is expected to be arraigned in state district court.

Harris County Assistant District Attorney Eric Devlin said a guardian for one of the children could face charges for taking money for allowing access to one of the children. He said statutes of limitations may hinder prosecution, but a charge could be levied as part of an ongoing conspiracy.

One of the lowest of low lifes.

It shouldn't be that he "could" face charges. The headline should be that Bernard Zacharia Albina is facting charges --- and stiff penalties.

ANSWER: NO

My surprise is that someone uncovered this disgusting situation.

My solution: ROPE THERAPY

This guy is a pure predator.

He needs to be taken off the streets now before other innocent people are hurt.

The other prisoners will make sure the Guardian has lots of fun if he goes to prison where he belongs.
