Overview

• The Wayne County lawsuit seeks $100 million and names Sinai-Grace Hospital, parent company Tenet Healthcare, and former nurse Wilfredo Figueroa-Berrios as defendants.
• The complaint says a woman hospitalized on Aug. 18–19 for alcohol-related treatment was assaulted four times and that hospital video shows the nurse repeatedly entering her room.
• The filing alleges staff dismissed her report, denied her a social worker or patient advocate, withheld meals, and made disparaging remarks as she sought discharge.
• Prosecutors have filed multiple criminal charges against Figueroa-Berrios, reported as eight counts tied to three alleged victims, and he also faces a separate porta-john case with other allegations under review, including a 2021 Livonia matter.
• Sinai-Grace says it screened the employee, notified law enforcement, suspended and then terminated him, and is cooperating with investigators, while the defense maintains he denies the allegations.
