US university in $250m payout for doctor's sex abuse

The University of California has agreed to pay nearly $250m (£185m) to over 200 women who allege they were sexually assaulted by a campus gynaecologist.

Multiple women accuse the university's Los Angeles site (UCLA) of deliberately hiding James Heaps' alleged sexual abuse of patients.

Mr Heaps was based at the UCLA student health centre during his 35-year career between 1983 and 2018.

Hundreds of women, some of whom had cancer, say they were abused by him.
