Nurse Surrenders License After Taking Picture of Patient's Penis



The state accepted Kristen Johnson's request to surrender her license, according to a March 17 statement.

Johnson "did not contest the charge of moral unfitness in the practice," the education department said.

Johnson was arrested in May of 2015 after an investigation concluded that she took pictures of two patients at Upstate University Hospital in 2014 and sent them to her coworkers, according to Syracruse.com.

Johnson initially faced a felony charge, but her sentence was reduced after she agreed to give up her license as part of a plea deal. She will also serve three years probation for taking the unlawful surveillance pictures, WRGB-TV reported.
