"His hands amounted to a "deadly weapon" because he used them to improperly insert medical devices and screws into patients meant to alleviate nerve and other pain. He operated on the wrong part of a patient's spine, damaged nerves and left one woman with chronic pain and dependent on a wheelchair. He also left a sponge in another patient following surgery." He is therefore guilty of using 'deadly weapons' in the commission of the offense of murder of his two patients - Prosecutor.
Icheoku says a very creative charge indeed that the hands of neurosurgeon Christopher Duntsch now amount to deadly weapons? Lets hope too that they will be equally introduced in evidence as exhibits during trial. Indeed a very interesting development in criminal prosecution.
