He lied on the Internet; he didn't take your land, sell your cattle, and kill your firstborn.


Relax.

A little lie is told and then you make two more little ones to cover it then those need to be bolstered with a few more medium lies pretty soon you have a house of lies built and everything inside you is screaming to let it fall but by that point the house of lies has kind of taken on a life of its own.
I don't know MedicRob well at all and I'm not defending what he did but when you hurt people who trust you Karma takes notice. Before anyone starts writing letters to deans or boards or whatever remember Karma is a nasty thing to mess with. Just let the wheel turn and it will take care of itself.

He slid into primary medical tent and seated himself at the table. Rather than assisting with incoming patients as all others did, he just sat there.

I went over and assisted AirEvac with an intubation, while he sat there looking sheepish.

I finally went over and shook his hand, he mumbled something in his lazy drawl and i really didn't listen. I was busy. Primary medical was slammed with EMTs bringing in more dehydrated partiers by the minute. Eventually he slunk away to be golf carted out to his station. He acted like he was able to choose where he worked, but I must say he stayed far away from primary medical the entire time I was there.

He told his basic instructor, that he was finished with nursing school, but has yet to take his boards. I wonder what the TN board of nursing would have to say about a graduate nurse impersonating an EMT-P/ACNP. I wonder if that might get a stipulation put on his license (if he really did finish nursing school.)

My follow up question would why didn't he take his nursing boards? My answer to this question is, he didn't take nursing school and that is his way of answering his teacher about his current status as an "RN candidate."

You see, there was no way for him to lie to her about being a paramedic, for obvious reasons. And there is no way to verify that he is a graduate nurse, so as long as he hasn't taken boards yet, there is no way to prove that he isn't. Other than to find out which nursing school he "finished."

I should have asked her to ask him what nursing school he went to, then we could call the school and find out if he ever attended.


I wonder if his lies would affect his status with the board or nursing, since impersonation of a registered nurse is a crime.

the only catch is that... he did it online. No one can prove he ever did it IRL.

Speaking of MedicRob and being absolutely worthless.....It took everything I had not to deck him for the crap he pulled. Who brings a friggin bluetooth stethescope to a Music Festival? Anyways, he never talked too much, except when pointing out what certain drugs did to people....until he found out that the patient in question had just been given Ativan lol.....

Was great meeting you Frostbite!

 

[8jimi8]

And Hotel, we are friends so dont take this with an angry connotation.

Rob really did cause emotional pain and anguish for the Browns. I would elaborate but it is not my story to tell. If he had lied like that to Brown's face there would be fisticuffs and I would be keeping people back to let Brown pummel him. I know Brown's words seem overly harsh, but had I been lied to in such a way, I would have probably gotten arrested for assault.

It was great meeting you too Jimi.....only one thing. As you were holding people back, I would be beating the living hell out of Rob along with Brown.

 

[BandageBrigade]

I understand the jist of what he did, but how did he get caught our who found out?

 

[vamike]

Would love to see John Prine!

 

[BigPoppa]

My question as well, as I assemble bits and pieces of this story.......

 

[TransportJockey]

None of that matters at this point. He was confronted, he asked to be removed from our community. End of story.

 

[emt-mike]

if you really hate him then you shouldn't even give him the satisfaction of speaking about him

 

[JPINFV]

...because that oh so works...

 

[Sasha]

Jeez louise people.

Brown said he lied about clinical trials... he didn't ruin your life, he didn't cause the problem, he didn't promise it would fix whatever problem... I understand being upset but this has come to a point where it is just plain ridiculous.

Threatening physical violence over it is just plain wrong. You should be ashamed of yourself.

 

[Aidey]

He gave a family dealing with a stressful illness hope, knowing full well that he was lying his arse off. I think Brown's anger is understandable. It is one thing to lie to the general forum, it is another to make it personal like that.

 

[Sasha]

He did not give him hope. He gave him the idea that there might possibly be hope. He didn't promsie a cure, he promised a study. For all Brown knew he could have ended up in the control/placebo group.

I understand it sucks to be lied to and manipulated... I truly do. But I don't think dehumanizing him and wanting to physically hurt someone is ever called for.

Let this be a lesson to you, trust no one online.

Leading someone to believe there is a chance of a cure or removal of symptoms is very well hope.

 

[Sasha]

He did not say there was a chance for a cure... Implying that you can be gotten into a study is in my eyes saying that they are studying the possiblity that there might be a possiblity of a cure.

He didn't give brown's family member the disease/disorder/disability.

I think rob is sick. I hope he gets the help he needs, but would not wish ill on him.

 

[MrBrown]

Brown doesn't really care if you mess with Brown, Brown has seen it before and it's really water off a ducks back.

Brown cares very much if you upset Brown's family and those Brown loves to the point where they are unable to sleep for three days.

It's not what he said in context of "cure" but the continued lies and deceit on a very personal, very intimate level for a sustained period of time knowing full well they were lies.

Brown cannot help but wonder what sort of emotional or psychological problem Rob has, it is unfortunate if he has some sort of psychosocioemotional problem that has necessitated such lies.

 

[rwik123]

I understand the jist of what he did, but how did he get caught our who found out?

From what I've pieced together he was trying to get corporate sponsored for the podcasts... My guess is that someone looked into his credentials and found that something was wrong.

 

[BandageBrigade]

I agree with sasha. While I can understand that people are upset; I as I am sure many others do not come here to see members (even former ones) get 'bashed'. I do believe much of this thread and possibly others is in violation of the forums personal attacks policy.
