Why So Blu?

Yeah, I read about it a coupe of days ago. It's one fucked up game show.

The first thought that came into my mind was:

Abob Teff

Too much was left unsaid in that article ... is the guy who resigned the leading suspect? Why else would he resign just days after taking the post?

Redeyejoker

LocL papers say a lot of things have been reported to him in the past but refused to report them to DPS. He is probably screwed either way

And in the thread title as well.

Why So Blu?

Get all the guys that worked there roughly 9 months ago.

This will be another case for Ancestry.com.

Good idea.

DVD Josh

Would have been a better idea BEFORE this happened.

Giantrobo

DVD Polizei

Good point.

The genius continues...

So, my question is...what the fuck are you guys doing in the first place?

In my line of work, it's unfortunate that these types of abuse to patient stories are not uncommon (people like us request follow-ups with patients all the time), but what's extra-abnormal in this case...is enough time lapsed without anyone noticing for this patient to have a child? That's a rather long time without observation in that room. 9 months, give or take a little, and nobody observed physical changes.

Full Audit of that place. Interviews for ALL STAFF, on up to President. CMS should rent a few dozen homes near there for their investigators to live in for the next year or two.

Nah, just a time out. Forever.

If the perp ultimately proves to be a unapproved visitor, I agree this is questionable security. However, if the father ends up being a male staff member who would have otherwise at least occasionally had work-related access to the patient's room, I don't really see this as a reasonable security problem. More like a human resources problem. Even in post-surgical wards with very active monitoring of patient health, in the middle of the night a nurse might stop by every couple of hours tops. That has certainly been my experience in hospital stays. For someone who is in a stable vegetative state (for ten years no less), it is pretty reasonable there is not a lot of active supervision of her room. That leaves ample opportunity for some orderly to sneak in and do the deed. Ultimately, the probably only needed a few minutes more likely than not. No reasonable (as in due care/due diligence) level of security is going to prevent that.

Interesting legal angle here:

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...tative-n956461

I am assuming that this alleged search warrant is real and not a ruse to flush the game, so to speak (which I suspect that it is). That assumption made, and assuming that the number of employees affected by this warrant are more than a few, I don't for the life of me see how this is a legal search warrant. You cannot just do a DNA sweep with a search warrant. A search warrant requires probable cause (i.e., "more likely than not") and requires particularity of the place to be searched. Let's assume there were 10 male employees. By definition, they do not have probable cause that any one of those 10 men is the rapist. Searching a database is one thing, but compelling DNA samples from 10 men when it is an undeniable fact that at least 90% of the men are not the father is just a power that the police should not have.

I'm slow, stupid or both. How can a woman who is in a vegetative state give birth? And how did they know she was expecting in the first place? It's a sick world we live in.

jfoobar

It's not like the nurse walked in and there was a crying baby at the foot of the bed. The nurse heard her moaning and finally took a close look at her and realized she was pregnant and had started labor. I think it is a safe bet that the actual delivery was surgical.

It probably is a lot less visually obvious that someone who spends their entire lives laying on their back is pregnant but you would have think that the people who turn her and wash her every day or so might have noticed.

Whoever changed the thread title...I salute you.

jfoobar

Same.

whotony

What was the original title?

jfoobar

Just "Disgusting".

Giantrobo

So, when can you do it? This is not a random DNA sweep in a parking lot. This is case where DNA and access to the victim are key to finding who did this.

VinVega

The title was disgusting, wasn't it?
