Vance insists $ didn’t taint perv doc case

MANHATTAN District Attorney Cy Vance Jr. defended his office’s decision-making Monday in the case of a perverted gynecologist who never served jail time in spite of pleading guilty to assaulting two patients on the exam table.

Vance’s comment came on the heels of an exclusive Daily News report featuring four alleged victims of former Columbia University Dr. Robert Hadden.

The women said they had doubts about how the case was handled. Their doubts turned to outrage when they learned Vance had accepted $42,000 in campaign donations from Hadden’s attorney, Isabelle Kirshner, and her firm since 2008.

“It is, unfortunately, sometimes the case that the resolution of cases does not completely make all the parties happy,” Vance said.

Hadden was convicted of one felony and one misdemeanor — but didn’t serve any jail time. He relinquished his medical license and registered as a sex offender.

“Ultimately, the goal of the office, after looking at all of the evidence, was to take a felony conviction . . . to have his license to practice medicine removed permanently,” Vance said.

“In terms of contributions, there is no contribution that I have received at any time that has influenced my determination of how we should proceed in a case — and none did in that case.”
