 The alleged incidents date back to the 1990s and 2000s, with the women claiming they were sexually abused during medical examinations that had no medical basis.

The prosecution argues that the victims, who were from the Orthodox Jewish community and had limited knowledge of sexual matters, trusted Dr. Davis, a highly respected doctor.

Dr. Davis denies all wrongdoing and maintains that the examinations were carried out properly and legally and were not sexually motivated. The trial is ongoing, with the women providing testimony about their experiences and Dr. Davis expected to present his defense.
