48. Dr Atiba omits that Ca prison healthcare system so bad, it's been placed under Fed receivership
by Federal court which found the State was violating 8th Amendment of Constitution against cruel & unusual punishment.

I seriously doubt that CA prisoners are receiving Cheney care, as Dr. Atiba alleges. Certainly he's not unfamiliar with the fact that the state prisons healthcare system was found to be in violation of the Constitution and placed under receivership. Evidently he's been part of the high cost/substandard care system that's been under fire which might perhaps help to explain his bizarre statement. There is plenty of evidence to put the lie to Atiba's statement.
