I mean, he's a doctor, right?
"Pediatrician accused of abuse agrees to stop practicing medicine" by David Abel, Globe Staff | March 21, 2009
A former Children's Hospital Boston pediatrician and best-selling author accused of sexually abusing as many as 50 boys will never practice medicine again, according to an agreement he signed yesterday with the medical board in North Carolina, where he has treated patients for more than 20 years.
The agreement bars Dr. Melvin D. Levine, 69, the former chief of ambulatory pediatrics at Children's Hospital, from ever seeking to reinstate his medical license in North Carolina or anywhere else.
Need I type it? You know which religiously ethnocentric group this perv is from, right?
"Dr. Levine admits that the board has evidence to support the accusation that he conducted inappropriate examinations," said Thomas Mansfield, legal director of the North Carolina Medical Board. "The result of this agreement is that Dr. Levine will never be able to examine another patient or practice medicine anywhere in the world."
Good. Now execute his ass! See: Supreme Court Sickies
A lawsuit filed in Suffolk Superior Court last year accused Levine of abusing at least seven boys who came to him for treatment at Children's Hospital. The suit was filed by an unnamed plaintiff who was 8 years old when the alleged abuse began between 1980 and 1985.
Carmen Durso, a Boston lawyer who filed the suit, said dozens of other people have since said they were abused at Children's Hospital and elsewhere.... In the agreement, Levine denied any wrongdoing, but the medical board said that it was prepared to present evidence at a hearing that he performed unnecessary genital exams on five patients in North Carolina, each of which was conducted outside the presence of a parent or guardian....
I wonder if this scum-shit ever forwarded an abuse charge against the parents to the police, don't you?
Alan Schneider, a North Carolina lawyer representing Levine, said the doctor "continues to adamantly deny the allegations and maintains that all examinations were medically necessary and performed in accordance with accepted medical practice."
Translation: he's in denial
He said fellow physicians, educators, former patients, and their parents sent letters to the board praising Dr. Levine's "extraordinary contributions and extolling his revolutionary influence on education and pediatrics."
Then he can't be guilty, right? I mean, he wouldn't give up his practice if he was guilty, would he?
Schneider called the agreement "an acceptable resolution" because a medical board hearing would have been "a major distraction" from Levine's other work, including his writing, international lecturing schedule, and his new Web-based learning institute.
Yeah, NEVER MIND about the KIDS that were SEXUALLY MOLESTED!!! And why doesn't the paper call it what it is? Why do they HIDE the JEW PERVERTS while CROWING UP the CATHOLICS?!! I think that bishop knows the answer.
Levine is not facing any criminal charges.
Why not?
"He is not practicing medicine and he does not intend to practice medicine, now or in the future," Schneider said. "There are no findings that he engaged in what has been alleged."
This is incredible. Yup, you murdered somebody, but since you say you won't do it again, you can go free. Pffft! Tell me again this society's MSM isn't controlled by Zionist Jews.
Levine's Boston lawyer, Edward Mahoney, argued that the agreement in North Carolina would not affect the lawsuit he is facing in Boston. The case remains in the discovery phase.
"The agreement . . . will have no impact whatsoever on the Massachusetts proceedings," Mahoney said in a statement. "Dr. Levine continues to adamantly deny the allegations."
Last year, Levine voluntarily stopped seeing patients at the University of North Carolina School of Medicine. He was a professor in the department of pediatrics at the university between 1987 and 2006. Until the allegations surfaced, Levine held an unpaid appointment as an adjunct professor at the university, continuing to see patients twice a month, university officials said.
They said yesterday that Levine is no longer associated with the university.... Karen McCall, a spokeswoman for the university's School of Medicine, said the university has not heard of anyone saying that Levine abused patients while he was a doctor there.
Levine, who has appeared on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" to promote his books, worked at Children's Hospital between 1971 and 1985, specializing in children with developmental and educational issues.
Oh, her book club and show is really filled with the LOWEST CLASS of GUTTER SCUM, huh?
Is his book full of lies, too, Oprah? How come you don't review or select The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11?
Another reason I don't respect Oprah at all: Remember Oprah going down the throat of the young lady who questioned George W. Bush's and the government's integrity regarding the accusations against Iraq?
A clip from a clip from Bill Moyers’s “Buying the War”:
Besides, I was never very impressed with her book selections to begin with. The choices sucked; I know, because I read one.
Officials at Children's Hospital declined to comment on the allegations.
"We take any allegations of abuse seriously," Elizabeth Andrews, director of public affairs at the hospital, said in a statement yesterday. "Children's Hospital's most important goal is to protect children's health and promote their well-being. Our staff is trained and experienced in detecting abuse and mistreatment of children. Such behavior, if identified, is treated with the utmost seriousness and addressed immediately."
I'm sorry, readers. I just can't take bullshit lies flowing from the mouths of official hacks anymore.
