Dyslexic Surgeon Aiding Federal Executions in IndianaST. LOUIS (AP) — A Missouri surgeon who participated in dozens of state executions until he was barred by a federal judge concerned by his dyslexia and lack of expertise is aiding in federal executions, court records show.
Last year, U.S. District Judge Fernando Gaitan Jr. ruled that Dr. Alan Doerhoff of Jefferson City could not participate “in any manner, at any level, in the State of Missouri’s lethal injection process.”
Doerhoff was the target of more than 20 malpractice suits and was reprimanded by the state for failing to disclose them.
But it was the doctor’s own admission in court that he was dyslexic, transposed numbers, and worked without the benefit of a written lethal injection protocol, despite his lack of training in anesthesiology, that led to Gaitan’s “grave concerns” and decision to bar him.
Hey, as long as the bad guy goes away, who cares?
