Maureen Pacheco went in for spinal surgery in April 2016. She left without one of her kidneys.

Pacheco met with Dr. Ramon Vazquez prior to her procedure. Vazquez’s job was to cut her open so her orthopedic surgeons could perform the delicate back operation. While prepping Pacheco for surgery, Dr. Vazquez noticed something suspicious.

He removed the mass, thinking it was a cancerous tumor...when it was actually one of Pacheco's kidneys. Dr. Vazquez never got consent to remove anything, and Florida’s Department of Health deemed the procedure "medically unnecessary."

An administrative complaint has been filed against Vazquez, who could have his medical license revoked. [Palm Beach Post]

Officers say King smelled of alcohol and showed watery, bloodshot eyes and slurred speech.

A breathalyzer test showed that King had a B.A.C. of 0.165%, double the legal limit. Police also found an open fifth of whiskey in her purse.
