In 2012, Laurie Kanyok was sexually assaulted by her OB/GYN, Dr. Robert Hadden of @Columbia U. She called 911 and Hadden was arrested at his office, but was released from custody & returned to work 4 days later. He allegedly assaulted more patients in the following 5 wks.

>> @Columbia 2/ In this letter – cc’d to the head of his department, the dean of the med school & the president of @nyphospital – Hadden is advised he may return to work so long as a chaperone is in the room with him when seeing patients.

Thread:

A government official helped inmates at a Florida county jail register to vote.

Now 10 of them have been charged with voter fraud & could face up to 5 years in prison.

4 have already pleaded guilty & been sentenced to between 364 days and 3 years.

>> Until 2018, Florida was one of just 4 states where people with felonies had to petition the governor to have voting rights restored.

Then voters passed Amendment 4, restoring this right to most people with felony convictions.

It didn't last.

I did not have “get physically assaulted while exiting the train station” on my 2020 bingo card, but here we are. If you are in or near the Morgan Ave. station in Bushwick, PLEASE be aware — I am evidently the fourth woman to have been attacked in the last month. (I am fine, thankfully, but eager for this year to end.)
