Safety manager gets prison time for killing a child in a hyperbaric chamber.
IMO “alternative health care” and all its works and workers belong in the evil category, not the stupid category.
Their customers OTOH, fall in the stupid, desperate, or both category(s) as they fall prey to con after con after con from the medi-sleaze industry.
This happened a few miles away from me - the sentencing was in my local paper. I had a friend who was supposed to receive treatment at that exact location the following Monday. That put him off oxygen therapy for a while.
It makes me so frustrated that a young child died being put through a therapy that had no evidence of efficacy. You can’t cure ADHD. The type of people who drag their kids into this stuff are exactly the kind unlikely to seek medication which is the first-line treatment for ADHD.
But the people who ran that place were just evil, especially the manager. A five year old boy burned alive under her watch and she made comments soon after like, “I’m just saying, he should have at least tried to put himself out.” Also, as soon as it happened, she fled from the scene and tried to get her teenage son to wipe her laptop.
I advocate not for one book, but several books to be thrown at this woman. And I’m happy to see everyone else go to jail too.
British fashion influencer dies after a botched penis enlargement procedure in Thailand.
I wonder why they called him “Tiny.”
That article said
Igho had about 185,000 Instagram followers and was known for his lavish lifestyle. He owned a $1.1 million home in Los Angeles’ Crenshaw neighborhood and a $600,000 apartment in London.
Neither Los Angeles nor London is cheap, so both houses might be quite ordinary.
The Crenshaw neighborhood is in South Los Angeles, and is historically a hub of Black culture in the city.
However, you’re spot on: Redfin says that the median sale price of a home in Crenshaw over the past three months was $1.3 million. Over the past three years, median sale prices have been between $1 million and $1.4 million.
Not exactly lavish is my point.
Why, he’s DeQuay Canton, of the Pennsylvania Cantons!
With “influencers”, I tend to take “lavish lifestyle” as what they try to represent on their page to the followers. Whether real or not.
Fallout from the Good Good golf stupidity:
I think that owning two homes, in cities on two different continents, qualifies as “lavish” all by itself.
Okay, that’s a fair point.
So does living in expensive neighborhoods. Especially if you chose to after they became expensive, and not because you needed to in order to get to work.
While Oxford Center locations in Michigan have shut down (at least temporarily), other “holistic” operators are still offering hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy for autism. HBOT remains the cure for what ails you - this joint claims it treats (in addition to autism) a whole range of disorders including cancer, cerebral palsy and MS.
Needless to say, these wild claims are not backed by medical science. There should be a nationwide crackdown on HBOT scammers, but in the current “anything goes” climate at HHS and the FDA, it won’t happen.
Former realtor goes wild on airplane flight, requiring duct tape and other restraints to prevent him from continuing to physically assault other passengers and flight staff.
I would imagine that something like that happens to each of us at one time or another. Chin up old boy!
I’ll be interested to hear if this was due to intoxication, a neurological event, or a psychiatric event.
I want to know if duct tape is part of the on board supplies or if a passenger was carrying it.
Pretty sure I remember reading of other incidents where duct tape was deployed as a restraint. I’m inclined to believe that flight crews stock it.
