Looks like he’s finally caught for something illegal. It’s about time.
This may be the end of his profession and may face jail time as well. Not too intelligent that is for sure.
People don’t realize that mistakes can cost a person their life. When my husband was sick last year and had a mighty serious form of pneumonia that almost killed him the doctor who was not supposed to practice without supervision went and prescribed meds that almost killed my husband and he was a middle aged man in a walk in clinic.
