Whistleblowing

As the case of the 2 nurses in Texas has drawn to a close, and the physician in the case (along with other non-medical personnel) held accountable by licensing bodies and the criminal justice system, Medscape has published a wrap-up of the case in its entirety for anyone interested in looking at all angles of what was a terribly disturbing set of events. Apologies for the wonky formating, but it was the only way to include all of it here:
