Level 4 · 1 mo agoSam had his medical license reinstated but then caused two patient deaths from surgical errors. A decade in prison and you expect the man to just pick up where he left off.

Level 4 · 1 mo agoStarted with Tommy Lee Jones, ended with Nazi in-laws and pro wrestling. This case had more plot twists than a telenovela.
