An organ harvesting Doctor injected multiple times lethal doses of morphine and ativan to kill a patient for the express purpose of harvesting his organs. The patient's mother had been misled, and never gave her full and informed consent to take him off life support, to inject him, or do so for the purpose of taking his organs.

My mother taught me to keep my mouth shut if I couldn’t say anything nice. I don’t see anything nice about organ donation and it degrades with each one of these articles.

Reminds me of “Coma” by Robin Cook.

Didn’t anyone see this coming?

Talk about “species soup & salad”. Women donating eggs, men donating sperm, freezing zygotes, the comatose losing their organs to over-zealous surgeons.

Must be big money in them soup-monkeys!

I have no doubt this occured.

Been directly warned by one too many doctors about this (back in my motorcycle days). I made it real clear in my living will and on my driver’s license. (There is a sticker you can put on to say “NO ORGAN DONATION”)

This is just hideous. It’s murder, and those responsible should go to jail forever.

Rosa Navarro, 54, is asking for unlimited compensation in the death of her son.

All the money in the world and then some?

[PGalt]

Interesting post, discussion. Thanks to all.

This doctor order 20-40 times the LD-50 dose of both morphine and Ativan. That boils down to murder.

[George W. Bush]

The naked greed of these organlegging doctor is why I finally stopped signing organ donor cards. I don't trust them not to pull the plug on me and use me as spare parts.

They do have a financial interest in completing the transaction. That's how they get paid. The doctors involved in final care should have no interest in or contact with the transplant team. Your doctor should be looking out for your interest, not tallying up your value as spare parts while dreaming of a nice seaside mansion.

ping, in case you haven’t seen this one.

Many blacks won’t donate organs for this very reason.

[Old Professer]

This paragraph brings up interesting questions about who was paying the bills and might add motive to the doctor’s being sued,

“The lawsuit alleges Roozrokh ordered Ruben Navarro be given lethal doses of morphine and Ativan, an accusation also reported as a finding in a federal investigation by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.”

[Charles Martel]

Mrs. Brown: "'Ere. What's going on?"
EMT: "Uh, he's donating his liver, madam.
Mrs. Brown: (screams)
Mrs. Brown: "Is this becasue he took out one of those silly cards?"
EMT: "That's right, madam."

[Mr. Silverback]

He came over and approached me and said I’m in charge of Ruben

I think she has a strong case, but if this is what she means when she says he misrepresented himself as Reuben's doctor, she's not going to get anywhere with that particular charge.

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

As the left gets more power, it’s more likely that this will not be prosecuted, or even encourages.

[barker]

On a biography page Roozrokh lists Farsi as other languages spoken. Now just where do they speak that?

[longtermmemmory]

sadly it is incidents like this and other anecdotal experiences which make the organ donation process rife with machiavelian death stalkers and give people every right to be suspicious.

I have seen doctors too eager to pull the plug for organ donation when the insurance seems to run out.
