Sexual Abuse Allegations involving Detroit Hospital Nurse Wilfredo Figueroa-Berrios
- In January 2026, 14 women filed a civil lawsuit against the Detroit Medical Center, Sinai Grace Hospital, and former nurse Wilfredo Figueroa Berrios. He was charged with multiple sex crimes involving patients.
- In October 2025, a $100 million lawsuit was filed against Detroit Medical Center’s Sinai Grace Hospital alleging that the hospital and three staff members failed to protect a patient who was allegedly sexually assaulted by Wilfredo Figueroa-Berrios when he was working as a nurse there. According to the lawsuit, the woman was admitted to the hospital on Aug. 18, 2025, and Figueroa-Berrios allegedly went into the woman’s room multiple times and assaulted her. The lawsuit claims that the hospital was aware of Figueroa-Berrios’s background and failed to ensure the patient’s safety by allowing him unsupervised access to the woman’s room. The lawsuit also claims that the woman reported the alleged assault to multiple hospital staff members who dismissed her claims. The lawsuit further alleges the woman was also repeatedly denied access to a social worker or patient advocate. The woman claims that in retaliation, the hospital falsely claimed that there was no record of her clothes and that she could leave the facility in her hospital gown when discharged, and refused to serve her meals. She also claims to have overheard a worker making threatening statements.
- In August 2025, nurse Wilfredo Figueroa-Berrios was charged for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman at Detroit’s Sinai-Grace Hospital. He had also faced previous allegations of alleged assault involving patients at a mental health facility in Livonia.
- In September 2025, Berrios was arraigned in another case for allegedly sexually assaulting a 41-year-old woman.

Who Can You Sue in a Sex Abuse Civil Case?
In a sex abuse civil case, the parties you might sue can vary depending on the circumstances of the abuse and the relationships involved.
Some potential parties that could be sued in a sex abuse civil case include:
- Individual Perpetrator: The alleged perpetrator of the sexual abuse can be named as a defendant in the lawsuit. This is often the person who directly committed the abusive acts.
- Institutions and Organizations: If the abuse occurred within an institution or organization, such as a school, church, sports club, or workplace, and they failed to take appropriate action to prevent or address the abuse, they might also be held liable.
- Employers: If the perpetrator was an employee of an organization or institution, the employer might be held vicariously liable for the actions of their employee if the abuse occurred within the scope of their employment.
- Property Owners: If the abuse occurred on a property owned by someone else, and the property owner failed to provide adequate security or take reasonable steps to prevent the abuse, they might be considered liable.
- Government Entities: In some cases, government entities might be involved, especially if the abuse occurred within a state institution or facility. Suing a government entity might involve specific procedures and limitations.
Sex abuse cases can be legally complex, so it's highly advisable to consult with experienced legal professionals who specialize in this area to understand your options and pursue the appropriate legal action. Levy Konigsberg, along with our team of sexual abuse lawyers, is available to provide assistance for your sexual abuse case.
Do I Have a Case?
You may have grounds to file a civil legal action if:
- You were sexually abused by a doctor or medical staff.
- The abuse occurred at any medical facility.
- You were sexually exploited or abused by someone in a position of power within an organization meant to provide support and care.
Levy Konigsberg represents survivors in civil lawsuits that aim to hold medical facilities and other facility operators accountable for their failures to stop abusive staff members and protect patients.
As civil claims, these cases are separate from any criminal proceedings that may arise from abuse and focus instead on holding institutions liable for damages. This means you may still have a claim even if:
- Your abuser is no longer alive.
- Your abuser was never charged with or convicted of a crime.
Recoverable Damages in Sexual Abuse Claims
In addition to providing accountability and a sense of justice, civil sex abuse lawsuits allow survivors to recover financial compensation for their damages, which may include:
- Past medical and mental health expenses
- Future mental health expenses, including therapy, medications, etc.
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional anguish and psychological harm
- Lost income
- Other economic and non-economic damages
