Bend -- Aggravated Harassment (2 incidents) and Sexual Molestation        On February 12, 2004, abortionist Ronald Stevenson was convicted on two counts of aggravated harassment of his customers. He was originally charged with one count of second-degree felony sex abuse and four counts of third-degree misdemeanor sex abuse regarding his patients, but entered an "Alford plea," where the defendant does not admit guilt, but takes advantage of a plea bargain offered by the district attorney's office. The plea is legally viewed as a conviction.        The abortionist will be on probation for five years. He also had sexual molestation charged filed against him in October 1997.        "News Notes: Abortionist Convicted."
