This horrible thing happened, and now the hospital will have to pay through the nose. Personally, I think criminal charges against both CPS and the hospital personnel are warranted. Kidnapping, for one. This sort of thing happens, more frequently than you'd want to think. What happens is that nurses, doctors, and others at the hospital are tired and pissed off for other reasons, then are confronted with a non-obvious problem they don't understand, and then they get nasty and blame the patient, patient's parents or caregivers, whatever. Sometimes they go this far. Hospital will of course appeal it, but they deserve to lose again.
I think for me, the fact that they contended that the Ketamine treatment was unnecessary WHILE cheerfully billing the family for said treatments was one of the keys. Just out of curiosity, I wonder if they ruled out a Red Widow bite? That spider lives in the palmetto woods in Florida, and has the charming ability to bite you, and have the incredibly painful effects of its venom continue to come back for the rest of the victim's life. This case was the subject of a Netflix documentary, but similar cases play out without media scrutiny across the country.
