I noticed long ago that when somebody thinks you might have caught them, or that you might suspect them of doing something bad, they will go almost nuts trying to distract you and others from what they're afraid you might find out. They'll get very critical and unaccountably or disproportionately upset. The "doctor" I dubbed "evil John Cosgrove" in my last article reacted precisely this way, when I suggested in front of a dozen of his professional colleagues that he was pretending to have read records or reports which didn't exist.
Evil Cosgrove said a certain patient had a record as being unusually prone to falls ever since childhood. That could explain why the patient always has visible bruises and abrasions every time her mother visits her at Kiley Developmental Center. Of course, another theory might be that the bruises and abrasions are evidence of Kiley staff slapping her around, punching her, knocking her down and terrorizing her on a daily basis to control her for the faux "legitimate needs of the facility" whenever she exhibits what they feel is "maladaptive behavior."
I checked around for these alleged records of proneness to falls since childhood. They don't seem to exist. I asked evil Cosgrove about the records. He responded by immediately becoming critical of me and all lawyers, and acting unaccountably upset. It was a tip-off. Maybe evil Cosgrove knows staff were beating that patient, and he is covering up crimes (possibly including rape). Or maybe not: but evil Cosgrove sure is nervous!
Kinga Mucha sent a false report to Illinois child protective services, threatening possible action against my client's guardianship of her disabled adult child. When she was questioned about this false report, by which time she had been advised that it was false and that forwarding it was a crime, she insisted that either, a.) the report was not really or not completely false; b.) she had corrected it; or c.) she hadn't intentionally filed it anyway, she was only following procedures. These were mutually contradictory excuses which weren't necessary to begin with. A simple apology and a factual correction or clarification would have sufficed to solve the problem. I think the issue was some allegation about refusing to provide medical information. In any event it was proven to be a falsehood; Kinga was basically left holding the bag.
Kinga repeatedly beseeched anyone who would listen: "I haven't done anything wrong!" She was a little hysterical about it, unwilling to even admit having made any innocent or careless mistake. She insisted that the issue was black and white: she was RIGHT and my client was WRONG. It was irrational, thus suspicious. Who knows, maybe Kinga was ordered by higher-ups to find evidence against my client that might threaten her guardianship of her adult child. It's not like Kiley/IDHS had no incentive, my client was a continuing nuisance to them.
Some would say that as a lawyer, as a professional, and officer of the Court, etc., I shouldn't caricature or insult people on the internet. I say they shouldn't torture and enslave people they are paid (with my taxes!) to help, and they shouldn't allow their peers to do that, either!
I've spent 24 years advocating and representing people who are beaten down, insulted and dehumanized. Who wants to help?
Psychiatria delenda est!
