George Tyndall
George Tyndall (1946 or 1947 – October 4, 2023) was an American gynecologist. In 2019 he was under investigation in the Los Angeles Police Department's largest investigation of sexual abuse by a single perpetrator.
Tyndall was born and raised in Plattsburgh, New York, as one of five children. He had French ancestry on his mother's side. He attended the State University of New York Plattsburgh but discontinued his studies to join the Navy in 1967. While in the Navy, he was sent to the Defense Language Institute in Monterey to study Vietnamese, a language that was in high demand for the American Intelligence efforts during the Vietnam War. He was eventually stationed in Manila in the Philippines. Tyndall learned Tagalog during this time.
In 1971, Tyndall was honorably discharged from the Navy and resumed studies at the State University of New York, where he graduated summa cum laude.
In 1980, Tyndall returned to the Philippines to begin medical school at the University of the East, Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center. He later transferred to the Drexel University College of Medicine (previously the Medical College of Pennsylvania).
Upon graduation from medical school, Tyndall was selected for a residency in obstetrics and gynecology at Kaiser in Los Angeles. During his residency he focused on preventative care, and upon completion of residency he found an opening in the student health center at the University of Southern California.
Tyndall practiced at the University of Southern California University Park Health Center and later the U.S.C. Engemann Student Health Center. He worked at the university from August 14, 1989, to June 21, 2016. For the majority of this time, he was the only full-time gynecologist.
On May 16, 2018 the Los Angeles Times published an article investigating allegations of sexual abuse. Since the publication, hundreds of women have come forward accusing Tyndall of sexual abuse and racial discrimination.
On June 26, 2019 Tyndall was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department and charged with 29 felonies related to allegations by 16 women for incidents taking place from 2009 to 2016. The 29 felonies consist of 18 counts of sexual penetration and 11 counts of sexual battery by fraud. The victims were age 17 to 29, had evidence to support claims, and fell within the statute of limitations. George Tyndall pleaded not guilty to the charges. Bail was set to $2.1 million and later lowered to $1.6 million. On July 9, 2020, prosecutors added six additional charges of sexual assault and battery: five counts of sexual penetration and one additional count of sexual battery by fraud.
