He gave the federal prosecutor until Friday to do so, or he would appoint a prosecutor who will.
Boy, I always thought the judges were supposed to be fair and impartial. What does one expect from a Clinton appointee.
I’m curious to see him try and pull this off. A sitting judge ordering the US Attorney’s office to investigate, indict and arrest members of federal law enforcement...all while ordering the attorney to violate a federal law, HIPPA.
Things in this country are so weird.
The judge who is responsible for the indict a ham sandwich phrase ended up in jail. He went nuts.
And the judge is going to “appoint” a prosecutor who will????
HIPAA is not applicable here. HIPAA only covers entities that possess patient medical records, including health plans, healthcare providers, and healthcare clearinghouses. Health plans include health insurance companies, health maintenance organizations, government programs that pay for healthcare (Medicare for example), and military and veterans’ health programs.
So...there is no HIPAA issue in this or any of these types of cases. The issue is however a violation of the Supreme Court created right to privacy that doesn’t actually exist in the Constitution. But since the Supreme Court created one to uphold Roe v. Wade...then they are stuck with it. And this judge is violating the Deputy’s right to privacy.
