I don't know about the USA but, as far as I know, in Canada, you can't practice medicine if you have a criminal record.

Maybe it will get a few people thinking.

Meh. I don't know about California, but in most of the USA, unless you commit a crime against a patient, the Medical Boards don't care, and if you do commit a crime against a patient, they'll put you on probation, and if you still manage to violate your probation six times and get your license yanked, then all you have to do is move to another state and get a "clean" record.

I'm glad he was convicted - very, very glad. But I've got no illusions that he will suffer any real consequences as a result. He won't be allowed to own a firearm. Unfortunately, that's probably about it. We'll see what happens at sentencing.

He's probably a hero to a lot of people, and now he's a "martyr," too.

I think this could reasonably be called meaningful consequences. Yeah!
