My post was about his 'special treatment'. God help him in prison.

Jane raises a very valid point as does Christine about whistle-blowing. A very difficult thing to do with the 'old-boy network' that still exists.

Other staff did complain Jane but were ignored. I believe one nurse 'left' after whistle blowing.

I wouldn't believe all you read in the papers. Nothing I can find in the nationals about this.

Its all very odd. I don't understand why other staff hadn't complained about him before. There must have been anaesthetists and nurses involved in all these ops both pre and post op.Mammograms must have been reviewed by radiographers etc. Even after he was reported he was still able to work. The whole system let these women down.

I was reading in our local paper about that awful surgeon that mutilated and maimed so many. It was stated that he had special treatment in the court, he was allowed 9 people to support him in court , instead if 1 like everyone else, got, treated with deference by court officials because of his manner, he was not handcuffered when sentenced . Why? Also all the palatial homes, here and abroad made from his deeds are not confiscated. He is likely to be out in 6/7 years to his millions, yet has left thousands with life changing injuries or life threatening. That isn't justice. How can his family stand by him?
