Speaking of reducing nurses to tears has anyone read this Westword article?. LW and Mary Keenan seem like two peas in a pod. :furious:

"Keenan met with doctors Long and Rosquist and the SANE nurses early in August. Mallard was not present. Keenan characterizes the session as "constructive"; the nurses call it "the meeting from hell." They say that Keenan was hostile and arrogant, that she behaved as if she were in a courtroom conducting an interrogation, that she spoke darkly of possible lawsuits against the nurses and the center for false arrest, and that she paid no attention to the comments of the two doctor"s.

Lynn Kimball is a Boulder Community Hospital nurse with 27 years of experience behind her. She has worked in intensive care and with damaged newborns wavering between life and death.

In the medical community, problems and disagreements are discussed in full knowledge of medicine's many gray and troubling areas. But the culture of prosecution is different, and Mary Keenan is a prosecutor.

In what Keenan describes as a push for quality assurance, she began calling in people from various disciplines who had worked with or observed the SANE program -- police, administrators, social workers -- and questioning them about any errors or weaknesses they might have observed. "There was no looking for criticism," she says, "just taking input."

"It was like a Star Chamber investigation," counters one observer. "Secretive. Calling in witnesses in private rather than discussing possible problems in the open."
