Documents show Bush indicted for "unlawful practice of medicine" in 1986

[slay]

I remember reading a while back that Bush Jr had been in trouble with the law back in 1986 and had it covered up. Today the website radaronline.com posted four court documents that seem to confirm this - well, they confirm that a "George W. Bush Jr" was indicted and convicted. But there seems to be some question as to whether or not this is the correct "George W. Bush Jr.". Anyone have any further info on this? How many George W. Bush Jr's are there in Midland, Texas anyways? Is this really a different George W. Bush Jr or is it another Bush cover-up?

Dubya’s Double Trouble?

Since George W. Bush’s first presidential campaign, journalists have been trying to verify reports that the president was once arrested on a cocaine posession charge. Now, for the first time, court records obtained by Radar may be able to shed some light on the mystery. Filed in 1986, the same year that the president claims to have given up drinking, the documents clearly show that a George W. Bush Jr. was convicted in a Midland, Texas court on a vague “unlawful practice of medicine” charge. Only thing is, it appears to be the wrong George W. Bush. Although they were born mere months apart, lived in the same town (the president grew up in Midland), and both have blue eyes and similar builds, only one was slapped with a $2000 fine and a year’s probation. The other became leader of the free world.

1. Interesting

Never heard of this before. Bush isn't a very popular name is it? I know there's Busch but not Bush. Especially in a small town like Midland, Texas.

11. Midland ain't a small town

Bush is a popular name, and Midland ain't that small. But I still think it's him for reasons given in my other post. It should be further investigated however.

2. Sombody should be able to find out about this lawyer judge and sheriff

right? Where are they or their relatives?

[bahrbearian]

3. Yeah sure 2 Chimpy's , One Good and the other an Evil Twin

[beam me up scottie]

4. Does anyone have a

more recent signature for comparison?

[ISUGRADIA]

9. Here's one

25. Wow.

I'm glad they gave him a black crayon to use, it looks much better than when he uses his mommy's lipstick.
:evilgrin:

5. Hello

Now what have the liberal bloggers come up w/ now?

:bounce:

[NYCGirl]

7. And Radar isn't a liberal blog...it's a gossip blog. NT

[Virginian]

6. But... Dubya isn't a JUNIOR.

[amazona]

12. technically no but in texas yes he is

Many people over the years and beers have referred to him as "junior" even though his name is not precisely identical to his dad's. As a Virginian, you are probably not aware of this egregious violation of tradition, but there it is...In Texas terms, Bush is indeed a Junior. Trust me, the LEOS around here are not Miss Manners.

[Melodybe]

13. Nope it is someone else

Pill popping is the only medicine he's practiced.

[Stephanie]

14. No way he would figure that out

All this time he thought he was!

8. Two things concern me about that article

It is a short blurb, but it already has two obvious errors.
1.) Hatfield died in 2001, two years after the book was out.
2.) The document clearly shows it as a $2500 fine, and the article says $2000
I found these errors after looking at the article for 30 seconds. What kind of site is this? Don't they proofread anything?

[slay]

18. Yeah.. their reporting skills are indeed lacking

and I saw in one of the documents that the birth-date is incorrect. I wonder if there is any way to find out whether or not this is the right Bush. Seems like if the real Bush Jr got busted, someone involved might have put a fake birthday to throw off any investigators. I'm definitely not stating this is the right Bush Jr - but I am curious.

20. County name entered wrong in one space as well

Midland Co. instead of Ector Co.

hmmm

[amazona]

10. did he give an illegal abortion?

I would need specifics about the "unlawful practice of medicine," because George Bush is a very common name. However, getting birthdates and other basic dates wrong was very, very, very common in police records of the 1980s. I could tell a long story about this, but it really isn't my story to tell. Suffice it to say I would tend to assume that George Bush/Midland, Texas is indeed our good friend if the race and year of birth within a couple years was the same. George W. Bush JUNIOR of Midland is fairly specific.

[CoffeeCat]

15. An abortion is the first thing that came to my mind. (nt)

[Botany]

16. The height is a match too

although this might be a Rove "Red Herring" could it be
for helping somebody "run up" or having drug "works kit?"

[CreekDog]

17. amateur gynecologist or amateur pharmacist?

[seabeyond]

22. he had his girlfriends illegal abortion in 72

or one out of a possible four that we know about.

i imagine this is a creative way of pressing charges for cocaine, since some could say it could be used as a medicating oneself.

19. Looks like a fake

Why would you have two counties listed?
Midland County and Ector County?
Granted they are adjoined, but they are still separate counties which would be separate jurisdictions.

[Carolab]

21. Signature

[City Lights]

23. Any Texans here who could comment on some of the numbers

on the other documents?

One lists the driver's license as 00043997. Does that seem like a valid number? There is also an MSO number, which is 28427. What's an MSO number?

[Horse with no Name]

24. The drivers license has the appropriate amount of numbers

although it it usually written TXDL00043997.
MSO would probably be Midland Sheriff Office.
BUT
If memory serves me correctly, that should be MCSO for Midland County Sheriff Office.
I think this is a fake. FWIW.
:shrug:

27. On the 2nd page

The suit was brought by Midland Hospital District (MHD).
It was probably something along the lines of stealing a prescription pad and trying to write scripts.
This charge of practicing medicine is lesser than fraudently obtaining narcotics or forgery or other charges.

26. Here's a pic of him and his first fiancee, Cathryn

George W. got engaged to Cathryn Lee Wolfman (right) at the age of 20 – the same age his father married. George W. surprised his friends when he returned to Yale after Christmas break his junior year to say he was engaged. The relationship and the engagement ended amicably.







In 1967, young George W. Bush abruptly called off his engagement to Cathryn Lee Wolfman. Friends close to the family blamed this sudden change of heart on Bush family pressure and disapproval of the prospective fiancee's Jewish stepfather. Although representatives from the Bush family later denied antiSemitism, in 1993, Bush as Texas Governor told the Houston Chronicle that he believed there was no place in heaven for anyone who did not accept Jesus Christ as his "personal savior." In 1998, before departing on a high-profile trip to the Middle East, Bush sophomorically joked with U.S. reporters that the first thing he would say to his hosts in Israel would be that they were all "going to hell."

28. I'd say Ms. Wolfman was a lucky woman

that the engagement was ended.
