The Frosta doctor rejects sexual motivation – adressa.no

– Then I would like to make it clear that there was no sexual motivation for this. I have had no pleasure in this, said the former municipal doctor in Frosta when the prosecution began the questioning in Trøndelag district court on Thursday.

The 55-year-old doctor has pleaded guilty to three cases of rape and 35 cases of having exploited his position as a doctor to obtain sexual intercourse. In total, the indictment against the former municipal doctor includes assault or abuse of the position against 94 women.

Bye was GP and chief municipal doctor in Frosta municipality for 25 years until he was dismissed. During his free explanation in court, he appeared to be offensive and with seemingly natural explanations for everything he did in meetings with the patients.

– There is no requirement or condition to have a sexual motivation in order to be convicted of sexual assaults or offences, State Attorney Eli Reberg Nessimo tells NTB.

Used sex toys

Nessimo pressed Bye hard on how and why he carried out gynecological examinations with his self-developed tools.

An old discarded stainless steel asthma medicine inhaler that Bye used for uterine examinations, she devoted a lot of time to. She also wondered how he came up with the idea of ​​using a common sex toy, a clitoral vibrator, to treat patients.

– There was no doubt that this was not medical equipment. It was used in two cases to see if it was able to change anything to increase blood circulation in the abdomen, in the vaginal opening, Bye said.

– Technical idiot

He admitted that the experiment had had no medical effect on the patient, not even when he had finally aimed the sex toy at the woman’s clitoris.

– I’m a bit of a technical idiot, and I guess I was a bit fascinated by it and wanted to try it out. It was in no way medically justified, I’m quite clear about that, Bye stammered.

In court, Bye has admitted that he made many unorthodox choices when it comes to treating the female patients who came to the doctor’s office. He said he had received insufficient training in gynecology while he had been on rotation. Later, when he came to the municipal doctor’s office in Frosta, he referred to it as “learning by doing” when he received patients with abdominal problems.

Wanted to protect against complaints

The special situation, and two complaints, meant that, according to Bye’s own words, he became anxious about making mistakes in the treatment of the patients. For that reason, he spent a long time, took many samples and examined the patients thoroughly. He claimed that he became afraid of making mistakes and receiving more complaints against him, so he began secretly filming the consultations.

The idea of ​​documentation in case someone complained became almost an obsession, and more and more cameras are being used. A total of 47,000 film recordings on several numbered hard drives were discovered at Bye’s home when the police carried out a search.

– They can be a double-edged sword – they show that I have done something wrong, and I have admitted some things, but still, said the doctor.

Experts in court

For two whole days, Bye has had to explain how he has practiced gynecological examinations and treatments at the GP’s office. Despite his lack of formal expertise in the area, the municipal doctor thought he had extensive practical knowledge of how best to carry out various investigations.

On Friday, medical experts in several areas will present their assessments of Bye’s methods and procedures in court. These are dermatologist Margareta Karin Johnsson, gynecologist Mette Haase Moen and specialists in general medicine Lars Erik Halvorsen Kari Løvendahl Mogstad.

The forensic psychiatric experts, psychiatrist Andreas Eirik Hamnes and psychologist Kåre Nonstad, will also submit their report on the defendant on Friday.
