This story is a few weeks old.
The charges were dropped against the Doctor.
However, the DA Ogg is talking about still taking it to a grand jury despite the judge dismissing the charges.

You would have thought they had to start with a Grand Jury... right?
Attacking a sitting judge is usually a bad career move.
“Ogg spokesman Dane Schiller said prosecutors will still pursue the case.
“Judge Bynum’s gratuitous observations call into question his fairness and impartiality; we anticipate presenting all the evidence in the matter to a grand jury,” Schiller said.”
And here is the communication guy. Dane Schiller.
...at this point are they proceeding to prevent the malicious prosecution lawsuit?

Usually, the person ‘stolen from’ has to complain.
So does this mean the hospital also filed a ‘theft claim’ in addition to firing the doctor?
The doctor wrote...
“He wrote: “Department of STATE HEALTH SERVICES of TEXAS says: “DSHS would recommend that the doses left in a punctured vial be given to people in groups 1a and 1b, if at all possible. However, there are going to be times when there is one or two doses left in the bottom of the vial and no potential recipients in those priority populations. In those cases, we recommend giving those left over doses to whoever is willing and has no contraindications. In the end, we want every dose used and none wasted.HARRIS COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH INSISTS THAT IT’S STAFF WASTE DAILY DOSES, AGAINST THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE STATE.””
So is this Harris County that is the complaintant?
