Hot Air: Few countries still extant today have suffered more from corruption, brutal autocracies, and bad luck than Haiti.

Weird case in that true crimes report. I wonder what were the exact complaint against this doctor by the nurses. If he was stealing expensive stuff from the hospital, it just doesn't make sense why a sheriff would try to protect the thief. I also wonder what motivated the nurses to report that doctor; he must have been a real jerk to them.
I have read of this case over the past few years, but the details that you ask escape me. I intend to look it up as some point here in the near future because I find the case fascinating, largely because taking down a DA and Sheriff meant that did just an incredible job of working this dase. Will post on it when I do.
