Zusammenfassung

Im September 1999 ritzte der 61-jährige Geburtshelfer Dr. Allan Zarkin nach einer gelungenen Sektio mit dem Skalpell seine Initialen in die Bauchhaut der Mutter. Den Angaben des an der Operation beteiligten Personals zufolge begründete »Dr. Zorro«, wie er anschließend genannt wurde, seine Tat damit, dass sein Werk so gut gelungen sei. Im Lauf des Gerichtsverfahrens, welches das Opfer angestrengt hatte – es ging um 5 Millionen Dollar Schmerzensgeld – stellte sich heraus, dass der Arzt an der »Pickschen Krankheit« litt (Blum 2000).
