    I can't believe the jurors ended up acquitting her for those 4 counts. What she's swindling, at the end of the day, involves test diagnostics outcomes, which impacted patients. They are not errors that are acceptable with a small margin of errors. Those acts were deliberate.

    • @MichaelRicksAherne
      @MichaelRicksAherne 2 ปีที่แล้ว +47

      The acts were deliberate but I think the reason she was acquitted on those counts is because the plaintiffs couldn't show damages. Their doctors, being smart doctors, noticed the results didn't make sense and ordered more tests by normal methods. Those secondary tests allowed the doctors to make correct diagnoses and treatments, so there was ultimately no harm to the patients.
      *edit*: I should add that I don't agree with our law being this way. I think putting people in harm's way should make someone guilty, even if they all got lucky and nothing happened.

    I think her image and voice were carefully contrived. If you're paying attention to her voice and eccentric appearance then you're not paying attention to the grift. Boris Johnson for example is said to deliberately make his hair a mess before he has to give an important interview. He knows that if people are looking at what a mess his hair is, they aren't focusing on the nonsense he's talking, and so he can get away with a lot of things.
