BLOOMINGTON – In the incident involving a Bloomington surgeon currently facing criminal sexual assault charges, the disabled victim was a patient of his, according to an order of protection filed in McLean County.
Our news partner HOI ABC reports in the order of protection against Shaun Kink, the woman, a patient, said he conducted the sexual assault in her home on December 6.
On Friday, Kink pleaded not guilty to all four charges he is facing.
One of the charges against Kink is aggravated criminal sexual assault of a handicapped person, a Class X felony. He is also facing felony charges of criminal sexual assault, aggravated criminal sexual assault and criminal sexual abuse.
The woman said she heard a knock at the front door, then the back door, before realizing it was Kink.
In the documents, the patient said her and Kink previously discussed how she was struggling with her medical bills.
“He helped me to the couch,” she said according to the documents.
Kink allegedly proceeded to perform the sexual assault of oral sex, then told her he would get her disability paper work started. Before leaving, she said Kink told her, “Shhh, this is a secret,” according to the documents.
Since then, the victim said she is scared to be in her home and said she is “looking over my shoulder everywhere I go.”
The woman is disabled and lives alone, according to the documents. “(Kink) knows that and took advantage of me,” she told authorities.
Since she had surgery, the woman alleges Kink has touched her breast at every appointment.
Kink will be back in court February 20 for a status hearing.
A judge granted the alleged victim an extension of her order of protection against Kink on Friday.
