What kind of sentence would they get?


Legally, there's no way any of the doctors would be able to get out of going to prison no matter how amazing their lawyers were. I'm guessing the charge would be attempted first degree murder and possibly involuntary manslaughter (for the mother). Is that an automatic life sentence or would they be out before they die? And Clay would have testify during the trial right? Would the doctors be tried as a group or charged separately? I'm really intrigued about the legal consequences. Wish they had shown what happened, maybe a 'six months later' kinda thing.

Reminds me a tad of COMA. It is SO CREEPY when doctors and nurses, people who swear an oath to do their best to preserve human life will harm it or even take it for their own twisted sickness or greed. Nothing creeps me out more than an evil doctor.

I hope while in prison they get gang raped on a regular basis.

Coma also did not show the main villain getting his justice it ended too soon.
