Like so many regulations, it is designed to make a criminal out of whoever the powers want to see criminalized. by Mamzelle
It looks like the prosecution is "evidence shopping", because they can't find any the normal way. by GigaDittos
Thank you.
Both your answers are revealing in that the envelope can and will be pushed in Rushs litigation.
Does shed some light on my earlier question (Post #30). Prosecuters will stop at nothing to indict Rush even to cross over the bounds of the laws. Surprise Surprise.
Federal HIPAA laws are in place that prevent a person's medical records from becoming public disclosure and this is, I believe, a portion of the defenses argument. Rush has this law on his side.

Fortunately for Rush, he has lots of money. He can hire whoever it takes to fight this, and also has his own media outlet. This ain't gonna be easy for the "little" man in the prosecutor's office.

Perhaps, but more likely this law is written to punish health professionals. Doesn't have much to do with punishing politicized prosecutors.
