Mercy Doctor is Reinstated in Concord New Hampshire
Dr. Hermann N. Sander, a country physician, regained his license to practice medicine after the State Board of Registration in Medicine suspended it. He had been acquitted March 9 of a murder charge tied to the death of Abbie Borroto, a 59 year old cancer patient, with the prosecution arguing air was injected to hasten death. The defense argued the patient was already dead and highlighted Sander’s dedication and prompt responses. The reinstatement is effective immediately.
