This isn’t an isolated case: it’s the ninth witness to vanish into medical leave just before testifying. The pattern points to a troubling loophole: a law meant to protect patient privacy is now being weaponized by powerful figures to dodge accountability.

As frustration mounts, the system seems to be letting the powerful walk away unscathed, one medical certificate at a time.
