I’ve read the article. It’s a case of dueling medical experts, all of whom represent opposing interests. Until it has been fully litigated, it is not appropriate to conclude medical malpractice. The family essentially blackmailed the hospital, saying they were going to publicize the allegations to the detriment of the hospital unless they were paid. It’s no different than what Creepy Porn Lawyer tried with Nike. Armstrong’s wife refused to participate in the matter. What does that tell you? (Full disclosure, I am a lawyer.)
