Fuentes Testimony Details Undercover Cop Role and Motives
Fuentes described an undercover female officer posed in a strip role tied to the case. He said Adams refused to replace the officer in the room, and he sought a second woman present. He claimed Dr. Toborowsky coerced him and that his attorney warned testimony would affect his mental illness status. Fuentes pressed for probation reduction to resume medical work abroad, as family and others urged leniency. He also said he plans to sue the informant and the attorney general’s office.
