Coretta King

ROSARITO, Mexico — Officials said Friday they closed the clinic in Rosarito, the seaside town south of Tijuana where Coretta Scott King died this week, because it was operating without proper licenses and in violation of health regulations.

Kurt Donsbach, director of the clinic, the Hospital Santa Monica, has a criminal record and has been known for more than a generation in Southern California and Mexico for offering alternative treatments, many of them considered suspect by medical authorities, to terminally ill patients, according to court records and health experts who monitor fraudulent alternative-health practices.

Donsback is a slime ball. In the 80`s, a unsourced 8x11 paper was sent to health food stores in the Bay Area proclaiming that drinking H2O2, hydrogen peroxide, would cure aids. At that time, drug stores were selling it for 99 cents a pt. Then, Donsback came out with flavored H2O2, charged $16.99 a pt. and cleaned up. It was all baloney, no science involved, just false hope aimed at desperate people

I wouldn't. Don't you trust me?
