Arm Landers dear Ann Landers i believe More people read your column than anything else in the paper which is Why 1 am writing to you. The subject is of grave importance. This Story appeared in the Louisville by courier journal and times Quot former Elizabethtown doctor Fred Rainey sentenced last year to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to 41 counts of sex related charges is asking for probation. The charges against Rainey stemmed from the alleged rape of a 12-year-old baby Sitter in his Home in 1959.

A was a part of the plea agreement Rainey will never be allowed to practice Medicine in Kentucky again. A Ann. Is it possible that this doctor can go to another stale and practice Medicine please Check it out. . Dear . I called the american medical association and this is what it said in order for this doctor to practice mod Cine in another state he would have to obtain a License in that state. This Means he would have to till out forms stating prior criminal convictions. His application would then be reviewed by the state licensing Board. Despite the Ama s statement 1 believe that too Many doctors who lose their License to practice in one state do indeed move elsewhere and carry on As if nothing had happened. In this age of computer technology there is no reason for any doctor to gel away with this sort of thing. This is one area of Medicine that is in desperate need of fixing.

The girl next door and 1 were asked to care for twins. 1 hesitate to Call it baby sitting for there was very Little sitting. Those babies demanded our undivided attention. When the parents resumed at 11p.m., they thanked us and gave us each a dime. We did no to feel that we had been underpaid. In those Days a dime bought two double dip ice Cream Cones.
