According to the Palm Beach County
Sheriff’s Office, 18-year old Malachi Love-Robinson was arrested and charged
with practicing medicine without a license on February 16th, 2016.
He watched Catch Me if You Can a little too much! This is complete hospital neglect – in a strange way though.
He thought he was Frank Abagnale, Jr.! Leonardo DiCaprio,
your acting is exceptional, perhaps too good! Some immoral young Americans want
to be like you in that movie!
After receiving a complaint the first
week of February, the investigation was started by the department’s Narcotics
Task Force and the Florida Department of Health. The investigation “revealed
that Love-Robinson had opened a medical office… and was presenting himself as a
certified medical doctor.” Wow, why not be a medical malpractice lawyer as
well?!
An undercover operation took place
during the investigation. Police say Love-Robinson was immediately arrested
after performing a physical exam on an undercover agent as well as offering
medical advice. He was also accused of impersonating a doctor last January at
St. Mary’s Medical Center. However, St. Mary’s denied that Love-Robinson came
in contact with patients and did not press charges against the teenager. The
police at the time decided that he had not committed a crime.
Apparently he was just bored! That is
how bad this economy is because of high taxes and regulations, there is not
enough real jobs in America, people have to make up jobs!
However, the Palm Beach County Sheriff's
Office reported that in October 2015, the Department of Health investigated and
cited Love-Robinson for practicing medicine without a license.
No Office!
On Wednesday, Love-Robinson was relapsed
from jail on $21,000 bail. He had a short phone call with CNN and declined to
be interviewed – perhaps because he did not trust that network. However, he did
say that he would present a statement outside his office (his office! – is he
delusional?! – he must be like Al Gore who said he invented the Internet or the
current president who told us that his health care act would not separate us
from our doctors or raise our medical costs) and would have a legal
representative with him.
Love-Robinson does not have an office,
he does have a jail cell though for this clear but strange form of hospital neglect.
Practicing without a License
For some occupations, licensure is required
before people can practice in that profession. Many professions require a
license, including doctors, lawyers, pharmacists, engineers, veterinarians,
accountants, real estate agent, nurses, social workers, etc. “Practicing
without a license” is a crime committed by anyone who engages in a profession
without having a proper license. How come someone did not inform Love-Robinson
this? Now he needs a medical
malpractice attorney or a criminal defense legal representative.
Practicing Medicine
When a state has requirements for a
license to practice an occupation, the term “practicing” refers to services
that are performed for someone else. Certain professions require licenses in
order to protect the public by ensuring that these occupations are handled by
people who are capable of providing the intended service. For example, doctors
treat people for injuries and illnesses, and without the proper education,
training and expertise, they could cause harm to their patients.
When it comes to the practice
of medicine, different states have different definitions
of what it means. Regardless, medical professionals in all states are required
to obtain some kind of license before being able to engage in their occupation.
This includes doctors, nurses,
dentists, veterinarians, and other healthcare professionals. Typically, the
definition of practicing medicine in all states is any activity intended to
cure disease or preserve health. However, activities such as selling vitamins,
selling home remedies, providing general advice, providing books on nutrition
or healing or other related activities is not included in this broad
definition.
If a person diagnoses people, performs
physical examinations, or prescribes medication, it is an activity that is
covered by the unauthorized
practice of medicine. It is often a felony offense to practice medicine
without a license and it is unethical! Did Love-Robinson just need some
attention? He should have played sports in high school and excelled in one of
them if he wanted some attention. Go practice a jump shot! Or get a job (a real job, the White House has not destroyed them all) and work hard somewhere. How did he not think he was going to get caught? What did he say to fool so many people?
If you have been treated by someone
without the proper license to practice medicine, you should seek the help of a medical
malpractice lawyer which is quite possible if you click right here: Medical-Malpractice.USAttorneys. You can
find out the steps to take to file a lawsuit against the person posing as a
doctor and practicing without a license for this strange category of hospital neglect.
