This week we discuss the unfortunate case of Colton Read, the former airman who went to get his gallbladder removed at Travis Air Force base, but left with both of his legs removed instead. After this tragic incident, Colton is medically discharged from the military with no malpractice compensation. This leaves him and his wife attempting to sue the U.S. government for millions over the botched surgery, only to come face-to-face with the sad realities of the Ferres Doctrine.

Donda West goes in for plastic surgery under Dr. Jan Adams on November 9th, 2007. The next day, her loved ones become frantic as Donda stops breathing and dies shortly after arriving at Centinela Freeman Regional Medical Center. As the coroner is left with deciding whether the cause of death was Dr. Adams or Donda's pre-existing health conditions, we see a lot of dirty laundries aired out that tell us it might just be a little of both.

Dr. George Blatti shocked Long Island, New York in 2019 when he was arrested for selling various prescription opioids out of parking lots for extra cash.

In observance of Black History Month, we want to share the infamous case of the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment.

In Part 2 of our two-part series on the Michael Jackson malpractice case, Dr. Murray is stripped of his medical license and sentenced to 4 years in prison for involuntary manslaughter. But what about the previous physicians that prescribed the same various sedatives and propofol before Murray? As we discover just how far back MJ's addiction to sedatives and surgical anesthetics goes, we are left asking if a physician's oath to do no harm can be trumped by respect for patient autonomy.

Kicking off 2022 after our brief New Year's holiday hiatus,  we bring you the infamous malpractice case of Michael Jackson.  In part 1, we discuss the events leading up to the King of Pop's death, the backstory of his personal physician at the time, Dr. Conrad Murray, and the series of missteps that led up to Jackson's death being labeled a homicide, rather than just the average malpractice crime.
