Boner Candidate #1: THERE IS A SPECIAL PLACE IN HELL FOR YOU
In late December the friends and family members of the Parkland school shooting victims started getting alarming messages through Instagram from users names such as nikolas.killed.your.sister, nikolas.the.murderer, and the.douglas.shooter:
“They had their whole lives ahead of them and I fucking stole it from them.”
“I killed your friends, baby girl”
“I took a shit on your sister’s grave,” followed by three poop emojis
“Did you like my Valentines gift? I killed your friends.”
“With the power of my AR-15, I take your loved ones away from you PERMANENTLY”
The messages, which continued through early January, were revealed in a criminal complaint filed last week in the Southern District of Florida. The Instagram account names were obvious references to Nikolas Cruz—the confessed shooter behind the death of 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School—who is awaiting trial at Broward County Jail. The real person behind the threatening and unsettling messages was Brandon Fleury, according to the FBI.
Boner Candidate #2: YOU KNOW I COULD HAVE JUST NOT TOLD YOU
A Massachusetts urologist removed a kidney from the wrong patient after mistakenly reading the CT scan of another man with the same name — who had the same type of scan done on the same day. Dr. Ankur M. Parikh, 37, who practices in Worcester, was reprimanded last month by the state’s Board of Registration in Medicine in connection with the 2016 incident, the Telegram & Gazette reported this week. Back in July 2016, Parikh removed a healthy kidney from Albert Hubbard Jr., then 65, after confusing his CT scan results with those of the other patient, who was 70 years old, the paper reported. Both men had received the exact same stomach and pelvis scan on the exact same day, according to the report. Hubbard had been complaining of blood in his urine and told Parikh what day he’d been scanned, the outlet reported. Then the doctor logged into UMass Memorial’s records system, searched Hubbard’s first and last name and pulled up the scan.
Hubbard was shocked when Parikh informed him he had a large tumor on his kidney that needed to be removed, according to a consent order.
