Thurs Roundup

It looks like the Hep-C infected by Endoscopy Center are going to have to wait for justice [unless you consider Dr. "Needles" Desai's stroke to be justice served from on-high]. During a deposition on Tuesday, the clinic’s office manager asserted her Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination [Desai has already indicated pre-stroke that he will "plead the 5th" if deposed]. (Las Vegas Sun). Currently, the trial is set for sometime in October 2009. (Las Vegas Now)

Harmful Error has the contribution and expense report in the race for the Supreme Court B seat. (Harmful Error)

George Knapp decries the ethics and malpractice "enforcement" mechanism in Nevada for doctors. (Las Vegas City Life). He notes that physicians on the Board of Osteopathic Medicine don't think it will be necessary to bar anesthesiologist Dr. Scott Young from practicing medicine, even though they have strong evidence that he re-used syringes on different patients. [so any of your attorneys feeling down about the lack of ethics in the profession within Nevada, cheer up! you'll always know Nevada doctors are worse]

And in federal court, U.S. District Judge Hunt ruled that the First Amendment gives orthodox jew police detectives the right to wear a beard in conformity with their religious beliefs. (Review-Journal)
