CANTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- A doctor who was once a physician for the Michigan Department of Corrections is accused of being involved in an Internet sex sting.

Dr. Audberto Cesar Antonini, 51, of Canton was part of an Internet sexual misconduct sting where police said he engaged in sexually explicit chats with an officer posing as a 13 year-old male, police said.

Antonini was taken into police custody after meeting at the prearranged location.

Antonini's medical license has been suspended.

Officials said he was recently a contract physician in the Michigan Department of Prisons system. His contract was terminated several months ago at the request of prison officials.
