Re: Speaking of perpetrating a fraud!!!!

But check this out ........The guy was found out on several different occasions and was arrested 2 or 3 times. Once he escaped from prison, and immediately got a job as a doctor in another clinic. He was eventually recaptured and perpetrated the doctor fraud AGAIN!!! Basically, he did this on a pretty consistent basis for 18 years and as I mentioned before, people are dead because of what he did. Now tell me....HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN???????

I remember this story. He was practicing in California as a physician but he was only licensed as a pharmacist. I think it was in Reader's Digest see http://www.rd.com/common/nav/index.j...subChannelId=8 . He pulled this off by using the license number of a REAL physician who had the same name. Why the real physician was never clued in, I don't know!
