Former NBC4 medical correspondent Dr. Bruce Hensel pleaded not 
guilty Friday to a felony charges alleging that he asked an 
acquaintance's 9-year-old daughter to send him sexually 
suggestive photos.

Hensel, 71, is due back in court Jan. 14.

He was arrested Nov. 13, accused of contacting the girl in 
August using an online messaging app and asking her to send him 
suggestive photos, prosecutors said. Investigators with the Los 
Angeles Regional Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force 
served a search warrant at Hensel's home on Oct. 16, officials 
said.

"We are cooperating fully with the authorities and we are 
looking forward to a speedy and complete exoneration," Sitkoff 
said after the arrest.

The case focused on inappropriate messages and photographs being 
shared between a child and a person believed to be Hensel, 
police said in a news release.

Hensel was the chief health, medical and science editor and 
correspondent for NBC4. He joined the station in 1987.

Hensel is a practicing physician who is board certified in two 
specialties, internal medicine and emergency medicine.

In addition to his work at NBC4 and being a practicing 
physician, Hensel was a radio talk show host, author, 
documentary film producer, a magazine contributing editor and a 
former actor.

Last year he was the executive producer of a show called "Beyond 
The Opposite Sex" on Showtime.

Hensel began his career in broadcasting in 1981 when he produced 
a show called "Medical Minutes" while still completing his 
internship and residency training at Wadsworth Veterans 
Administration Hospital at UCLA, according to his online bio on 
NBCLA.

A graduate of UCLA with a bachelor's in political theory, Hensel 
also studied journalism at both UCLA and Columbia University and 
attended medical school at Columbia University's College of 
Physcians and Surgeons, his bio said.

NBC has attempted to reach Hensel for comment.
