Ex-Rutgers doc facing 160 charges hit with class action suit by woman he allegedly filmed in bathroom


A woman employed at the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey has sued a former top doctor there after he allegedly recorded her and at least 28 others in the bathroom over a nine month period.

The civil suit comes after authorities brought 160 criminal charges against Dr. James Goydos, a former professor of surgery and melanoma treatment specialist at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School. The criminal counts ranges from invasion of privacy, official misconduct, burglary, computer theft, impersonation, wiretapping, falsely implicating another, coercion, hindering, possession of an assault rifle and possession of a prohibited device.

The woman, who is not identified in the lawsuit, filed the class action complaint in Middlesex County Superior Court on March 22, and an amended version was filed April 1. It comes after various news articles, including reporting by NJ Advance Media, detailed the indictment in February.

Goydos, 58, of New Brunswick, resigned from his $437,000 salaried, tenured position in December, shortly after the indictment was returned by a grand jury.
