A judge convicted an orderly of groping an emergency room patient’s breast, calling the man’s insistence he never noticed the attractive, scantily clad blonde “virtually impossible.”

Judge Robert Fournier convicted Tena Tesso, 36, of sexual assault, concluding his “evasive” account of what happened on Aug. 17, 2008, was simply “incredible.”

The 24-year-old complainant, meanwhile, was “as honest and frank as the day is long.”
