Nurse pleads not guilty to raping, impregnating disabled US woman

A nurse accused of raping and impregnating an incapacitated woman at a long-term care facility entered a not guilty plea on Tuesday at his first court appearance. Shackled and wearing orange prison garb, Nathan Sutherland, 36, entered his plea through his attorney, David Gregan, at a hearing at Maricopa County Superior Court that lasted only minutes. "Mr Sutherland, just as you and I are, is entitled to due process of law," Gregan told reporters after the hearing.
