Anesthesiologist pleads guilty to drugging, sexually abusing family nanny after she sets up hidden camera to record him

An anesthesiologist in New York state pleaded guilty to drugging and sexually abusing his family's nanny while she was asleep in his home, authorities said.

Paul Giacopelli, 60, pleaded guilty Wednesday before Putnam County Judge Anthony Molé after being indicted by a grand jury in March, the county's district attorney said in a news release.

Giacopelli's attorney, Steven Gaitman, said his client "assumed responsibility for his crimes, and now is focused on tending to his family."
