An Iowa doctor will essentially spend the rest of his life behind bars after he sexually assaulted an 8-year-old girl at his home near Des Moines last year.

Dr. Lynn Lindaman, 73,was sentenced to 50 years in prison. He must serve 42-and-a-half years, according to the Polk County Attorney’s Office. The sentence was enhanced because of a previous lascivious acts with a child conviction in 1976 in Johnson County.

The jury needed just an hour to convict Lindaman of second-degree sexual assault back in February. He abused the girl at his home in Ankeny on June 27, 2023, prosecutors said. The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation arrested him the next day.

Lindaman’s ex-wife testified that he told her that he was trying to help the girl “explore her sexuality in a safe place.” Lindaman declined to speak after the sentencing, pleading the Fifth Amendment until all “legal actions are completed,” he said.

His attorney Lucas Taylor told the Des Moines Register after the verdict he planned to appeal.

Is this forum a... safe space to say out loud whom I'm thinking about? Because really, this disgraced former doctor is using the exact same slogans as the...

Okay, nevermind.
