When Sarah Harris went in for surgery to remove her wisdom teeth in the summer of 2020, she must have thought she was in good hands. The oral surgeon she chose, Dr. James Ryan, had years of training, a good reputation and a thriving practice near her Washington, D.C.-area home. As a new patient at 23, she may never have dreamed he’d allegedly watched her when she was just 14. And Ryan would do more than take out Sarah’s teeth. Her family says he would take her self-control and eventually take her life.
Honestly sometimes getting downvoted to oblivion on Lemmy is a key indicator that you’re not 14 and have some life experience beyond selfhosting a minecraft server.
The article is a promotion for a docudrama.
Of course what happened to her is truly, genuinely sad, but millions of young women lose or ruin their lives over drugs every year. They don’t get their own docudrama because they’re less pretty, or less relatable, or have less respectable abusers.
