According to the New Jersey Office of the Attorney General, Andre Maureece Angus, a Registered Nurse who practiced at Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center, was arrested on December 11, 2024.
Police charged Angus with three counts of fourth-degree criminal sexual contact after three separate incidents that allegedly happened between September 2023 and March 2024. Prosecutors allege he groped or inappropriately touched the genital area of three male patients under his care. His employment at the hospital has since been terminated, officials noted.
“Patients being treated in a hospital trust that the individuals assigned to their care will treat them with dignity and respect, in accordance with medical ethics and professional standards,” said Attorney General Platkin. “Individuals who exploit their positions of trust to sexually prey on patients–as this licensee allegedly did–present a clear danger to the public that must be stopped. That is why we have suspended him from practice until these very serious criminal charges are resolved.”
Under an interim consent order filed with the New Jersey Board of Nursing on July 28, 2025, the NJ Office of the Attorney General said Angus agreed to the temporary suspension of his nursing license until the criminal proceedings conclude and the Board determines its next steps.
“The criminal allegations, if proven, demonstrate an egregious violation of professional standards that undermine the integrity of the nursing profession,” said Elizabeth M. Harris, Acting Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs. “Under the consent order announced today, this licensee will have no professional contact with patients in any practice setting while these allegations are ongoing.”
Officials are encouraging patients who believe that they were treated inappropriately by Angus to file an online complaint here.
