Katrina-Related Euthanasia

There were a lot of misleading and inaccurate media reports about Hurricane Katrina, and I was warned by friends that the story of euthanasia of Memorial Medical Center was probably a part of it. It was not a widely carried story, but it’s back in the news today when three people who worked at the hospital (a doctor and two nurses) were arrested and charged with second degree murder.

We’ll see how this develops.
12:25 Update: The New York Times is reporting the names of the three arrested, as well as a statement from the company that runs the hospital.
