What is the name of your state? Multiple/Federal

During renovations in our orthodontist office, we discovered several documents hidden between a bottom cabinet and the base board. The documents pertain to a torture Asylum filed by a former employee that resigned about a year ago. Below is a personal letter a physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor supposedly authored; however, the letter is nonsensical to me, I'll post my critic below. The judge granted the Asylum and only made reference to this doctor's note claiming "a doctor's note provided proves she was tortured". I plan on reporting the Asylum and doctor, but wanted to get opinions from others not in the medical field, is this doctor's letter even believable?

I've removed the top letterhead and anything personal or identifiable.





The patient doesn't have any issues (impairments, limitations or pain) and the doctor didn't provide any treatment. She only has healed scars cosmetic in nature, so the doctor refers her to a psychiatrist/psychologist. This should have ended there.

HOWEVER, thereafter, the doctor took the initiative to author a personal two page letter to a federal judge, sign and notarize it, claiming after visually inspecting the patient's healed scars and based on his medical expertise, he was able determine:
(a) HOW the cosmetic scars occurred "laceration from blunt weapon"
(b) WHO caused the scars "secondary to spousal and religious fundamentalist abuse"
(c) WHY it occurred "she sustained numerous injuries...triggered [by] her modern believes, view of life, desire for freedom, equal right and equal opportunity for women in her native homeland"
(d) WHEN the healed scars occurred, "it is my professional opinion that the appearance of the scars and other injuries...are consistent with the history, the manner, and the time they were sustained".

Who are "we"?


The documents pertain to a torture Asylum filed by a former employee that resigned about a year ago.

What does it mean for a person to "file" "a torture Asylum"? Do you mean that this former employee filed an application to U.S. immigration authorities seeking asylum based on something that happened in his/her home country?


Below is a personal letter

I don't know about anyone else, but I see no letter. All I see are broken link icons.


I plan on reporting the Asylum and doctor,

You keep capitalizing "Asylum," which makes me think you're talking about a place. Is that the case? To whom do you plan on "reporting the Asylum and doctor"? And why?

So what? What does this have to do with you, and why do you care?

If you're asking folks on a legal message board whether certain conclusions formed by an orthodontist, based on examination of a patient we haven't met or even seen pictures of, are or aren't reasonable, no one here is competent to comment intelligently about that.

My only comments on the letter is that there are quite a few grammatical and stylist issues. Enough to indicate that while the person who wrote it is well educated, English is definitely not their primary language.

I don't see where you get the idea the doctor is an orthodontist. Nothing in the post suggests that, and the letter that is now linked clearly shows the author claiming to be an MD and a Fellow of the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. I agree, though, that no one on a message forum can competently assess the conclusions of the doctor without knowledge of the exact examination and tests performed and having seen exactly what the doctor relied on for his/her conclusions.

Maybe it was because of the mention of the orthodontist’s office in caycee’s post?

You sure seem to know a lot about the subject of the letter. Why is that?

The original post is very confusing but it sounds to me like the former employee was the one who filed for asylum in this country based on torture in the country of origin and asylum was granted. If so, and if the employee resigned a year ago, it might be best to try to find and return the documents to the employee.

Nothing other than the first sentence in the post: "During renovations in our orthodontist office, we discovered several documents hidden between a bottom cabinet and the base board."


the letter that is now linked clearly shows. . . .

As I wrote in my prior response: "I don't know about anyone else, but I see no letter. All I see are broken link icons." Nothing has changed.

It obviously shows up for me. :)

It is a doctor’s description of a female patient’s scars from old injuries. The doctor concluded after examination that the woman had at one time been tortured.

It's still unclear to me what the legal question is
It isn't a legal question. It seems to be a jerk looking to get an ex-employee deported and for some strange reason came here, to a legal advice site, posted under the "Other Crimes- Federal or State" forum, seeking "other opinions not in the medical field". I guess to see if others agree with the dental hygienist uber qualified opinions to call the ex-employee a fraud. :rolleyes:

Deportation seemed like the unspoken goal to me, as well. I hope that’s not the case.
