Eye doctor suspected of molesting girl at Commerce City Walmart

"An eye doctor who routinely worked with children at a Walmart is accused of having child *advertiser censored* on his computer, and 9News reported that he's being investigated in the alleged molestation of a young girl at the store. Dr. Diego Posada, 42, worked at All Eyes on You, the vision center at the Walmart at East 60th Avenue and Dahlia Street in Commerce City. He was arrested Friday in Florida and is facing extradition to Colorado.

The allegation surfaced in October when a 4-year-old girl's mother contacted Commerce City police, according to court documents obtained by 9News. They also indicate Walmart was notified of a molestation accusation by a family in 2006...."

This is horrid. The original family who attempted to report the abuse were told they'd be deported if they went through with the report. The mask thing is creepy.....

Pedophiles spend just as much time, if not more, grooming the parents and often take advantage of naivete. If you've never taken a child into an eye exam, how are you supposed to know that the mother doesn't wear a mask? No doubt Posada told the woman it was to protect her eyes or some such nonsense. And just why would the doctor need info on DNA evidence? SHAME!!!

".....The allegation surfaced in October 2010 when a 4-year-old girl's mother contacted Commerce City Police. Her claims are detailed in court documents obtained by 9Wants to Know. Those filings also indicate Walmart was notified of another molestation accusation by a family in 2006. The family informed police a Walmart employee repeatedly told them they would be deported if they reported Posada to authorities...."

and

"....The mother who sparked the more recent complaint said her daughter claimed Posada had removed her pants and touched her while her mother's eyes were covered with a mask, ostensibly as part of the eye exams...."

and

"....Investigators indicated when they searched Posada's computer, in addition to the lewd images, they found someone had been searching the Internet for information on DNA evidence, sex assaults on children, lawyers and bail bondsmen. Both Posada and a Walmart supervisor disclosed to investigators that the doctor had been the subject of a prior molestation allegation.

My guess is that Walmart's legal team are not having a pleasant day.

Former Commerce City Walmart eye doctor accused of child *advertiser censored* posts bond
June 14, 2011

"....Dr. Diego Posada posted bond on Monday, but according to jail staffers, when he saw 9News's cameras outside the jail, he did not want to leave. The former Walmart eye doctor is facing a child *advertiser censored* charge and child molestation allegations. His attorney says he's innocent of all the accusations. Monday morning, a judge reduced Posada's bond from $500,000 to $50,000. Prosecutors objected to the move, saying Posada is a flight risk...."

The man is from Colombia and has family there. And this does not make him a flight risk? Same exact way we lost Dr. Emilio Luna of El Paso. He has family in Mexico, cut off his GPS and was gone.
 
I haven't forgotten about this guy. Two new charges. I cannot believe that this man is out on bond:

New child sex charges against former Walmart eye doctor
September 6, 2011

"Dr. Diego Posada came to court on Tuesday on a charge related to *advertiser censored* and learned prosecutors were expanding the case against him to include two counts of sexual assault on a child. The ophthalmologist, whose license to practice has been suspended by state regulators, ran the All Eyes On You vision clinic at the Walmart Supercenter in Commerce City. Investigators say Posada's clinic, which they found to be covered in traces of his semen, was the scene of two alleged instances of child molestation...."

and

"...two families claim Posada molested their daughters during visits to the eye clinic. While investigating a 2010 claim, police discovered that a similar complaint had been lodged with Walmart by a family in 2006. The allegation was never reported to police.
"They stated they wrote a statement for Walmart back when this happened, but Walmart never called them, followed up with them, or helped them," police wrote in an affidavit. "The employee of Walmart, three times, told them if they reported this matter to the police they would be deported, the mother began to believe this and got scared and 'didn't say anything...."

and

Posada remains free on bond..."

August 2012
Diego Posada, the former Walmart eye doctor accused of molesting children in his office, has been sentenced in a plea deal that avoids a trial on felony charges and allows him to keep his professional license.

District Court Judge John E. Popovich, Jr sentenced Posada to one year in the Adams County Jail, the maximum for a Class 2 misdemeanor. Posada will be required to register as a sex offender.
