TODAY THE I-TEAM UNCOVERED THAT
DR. ROSE CONDUCTED 4 52
AUTOPSIES IN THE TWO YEARS
BEFORE SHE STEPPED DOWN IN 201
BEFORE SHE STEPPED DOWN IN
2010.
SOURCES TELL US SHE WAS
SUFFERING FROM EARLY ON SET
ALZHEIMER'S WHICH WAS FIRST
REPORTED YESTERDAY BIWEEKLY.
THE MAGAZINE ARTICLE EXAMINE
WHAT STATE ATTORNEY ANGELA
COREY KNEW ABOUT THE DOCTOR
PROBLEM AND WHEN SHE KNEW IT
MANY.
ISSUE IS RATTLING THE RACE FOR
STATE ATTORNEY BUT ONE OF THE
OPPONENT IS CALLING FOR A
FEDERAL INVESTIGATION.
CORY DENIES ANY WRONGDOING AND
CALLS THE WHOLE THING A
POLITICAL STUNT.
TODAY I-TEAM VERSUS PICKET DUG
DEEP NEAR ONE OF THE CRIMINAL
CASE
CRIMINAL CASES THAT COULD HAVE
BEEN AFFECTED BY DR. ROSE
ACTIONS.
JOINING US FOUR LIVE FROM
DOWNTOWN JIM?
>>Reporter: THIS IS THE STATE
ATTORNEY OFFICE BEHIND ME HERE
AND RIGHT HERE WHERE ANGELA
CORY WAS TALKING ABOUT THE ONE
PARTICULAR CASE ALONG WITH
OTHERS.
AGAIN, SHE HAD SAID AT THE TIME
THAT THIS CASE SHE WASN'T AWARE
OF ANY PROBLEMS WITH DR. ROSE
AT THE TIME.
BUT THE ATTORNEY HANDLING THIS
PARTICULAR CASE ALSO AN
ADVERSARY OF CORY SAID HE KNEW
AND HE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT
THIS OFFICE KNEW BACK IN 2010.
>> IN 2008 SHE WAS ARRESTED AND
CHARGED WITH MURDER FOR THE
DEATH OF HER 18 MONTH OLD SON.
SHE SAID HIS INJURIES WERE FROM
AN ACCIDENTAL FALL ON THE PLAY
PEN.
BUT THE MEDICAL EXAMINER HAD
RULED THE DEATH HOMICIDE.
EVENTUALLY SHE PLED GUILTY TO
MANSLAUGHTER AND PUT ON
PROBATION FOR TWO YEARS.
ONE WHEN THE CASE WAS PREPARING
TO GO TO TRIAL 6 YOURSELF AGO
HER ATTORNEY PAT MCGINNIS WAS
QUESTIONING DR. ROSE ABOUT THE
DEATH.
THE TRANSCRIPTS WE OBTAINED
SHOWS THAT THE DOCTOR COULDN'T
FOLLOW THE LINE OF QUESTIONS
AND SEEMED VERY CONFUSED.
THE PAT WHO KNEW ROSE FOR
YOURSELF WAS VERY CONCERNED FOR
HER AND HIS CLIENT.
>> I WAS ASTOUNDED BECAUSE I
HAVE KNOWN HER TO BE A
COMPETENT PROFESSIONAL FOR A
NUMBER OF YEARS.
AND SHE WASN'T AT ALL LIKE THA
AND SHE WASN'T AT ALL LIKE
THAT.
SHE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS
GOING ON AND THE SITUATION AND
DEPOSITION AND THE EVIDENCE IS
KIND OF FRINGT.
>>Reporter: IN FACT HE SAID
HAD HE TO STOP THE INTERVIEW.
>> I DON'T THINK SHE WAS BEING
EVASIVE.
I DON'T THINK SHE UNDERSTOOD
WHAT WAS GOING ON.
>>Reporter: AT THAT POINT WHAT
DID YOU DO?
>> I SUGGESTED THAT THE
DEPOSITION BE ADJOURNED.
I TALKED TO THE STATE ATTORNEY
INVOLVED AND TOLD THEM THIS IS
A SERIOUS PROBLEM.
AND HE NEEDED TO GET WITH HIS
SUPERIOR ABOUT THIS DR. ROSE
IN THAT CONDITION SHOULD NOT
HAVE BEEN GOING TO COURT OR
CONDUCTING AUTOPSY.
>>Reporter: YESTERDAY CORY
COMMENTED ABOUT THIS CASE.
WE SHOWED THAT TO MCGINN.
>> PAT OR WHOEVER ELSE PLED HIM
GUILTY TO MANSLAUGHTER AND THAT
PERSON WAS SENTENCED.
AGAIN, NO CONCERN ABOUT DR.
AGAIN, NO CONCERN ABOUT
DR. ROSE OR HER TESTIMONY WHEN
THE PLEA OF GUILTY WAS ENTERED.
>> WE HEAR THAT.
YOU HEAR HER SAY THAT.
WHAT IS YOUR REACTION TO THAT?
>> IT'S HARD.
THERE WERE GRAVE CONCERNS ABOUT
DR. ROSE.
I BROUGHT THEM TO THE ATTENTION
OF THE STATEMENT I BROUGHT UP
THE CONCERNS AND HIRED AN
INDEPENDENT MEDICAL EXAMINER TO
REVI IT.
>>Reporter: AFTER I TALKED TO
MCGINNIS I TAKE YOU COULD TO
ANGELA CORY ON THE PHONE AGAIN
TODAY AND SHEREE IT RATED AT
THE TIME THAT SHE TOOK ACTION
IMMEDIATELY ABOUT A MONTH AND A
HALF LATER AFTER THAT AFTER
THAT CERTAIN CASE WITH THE
DOCTOR AND SHE TOOK ACTION AND
THAT'S WHEN THE DOCTOR RESIGNED
FROM HER POST AND THEN
OFFICIALLY RESIGNED IN JANUARY.
AGAIN CORY SAYS THIS IS NOTHING
BUT A POLITICAL STUNT AT THIS
POINT AND THAT SHE CONTENDS
THAT AND SHE SAYS THAT THAT HAS
BEEN THE PROBLEM.
SHE WONDERED WHY THIS WASN'T
BROUGHT UP YEARS AGO AND NOW
IT'S ALL COMING OUT DURING THIS
ELECTION.
I ALSO TALKED TO THE WOMAN
INVOLVED IN THIS TODAY SHE
DIDN'T WANT TO GO ON COME ARE
-- CAMERA. HER ATTORNEY IS
SAYING THAT HAD SHE NOT PLED
GUILTY TO MANSLAUGHTER SHE
WOULD HAVE SERVED JAIL TIME BUT
NOW SHE DIDN'T SERVE ANY JAIL
TIME PLEAD TO GO. THAT SHE WAS
ONLY OUT ON PROBATION.
LIVE DOWNTOWN JIM PICKET
CHANNEL 4, THE LOCAL STATION.
>>> THANK YOU JIM.
AS FOR THE ARTICLE CORY
CONTENDS IT WAS PLANTED BY
WHITE WHO DENIES IT.
HE'S CALLING FOR THE JUSTICE
DEPARTMENT TO INVESTIGATE WHAT
HE CLAIMS IS A COVERUP BY CORY
OF DR. ROSE'S PROBLEMS.
TODAY HE SPOKE TO THE REPORTER
WHO WROTE THE STORY CLARE GULF
WHO IS ALSO THE MAGAZINE'S
EDITOR.
SHE TELLS US NO ONE PLANTED THE
STORY.
>> I THINK THAT IS ABSURD.
REAL STORY HERE IS THE
DISCOVERY VIOLATION BY THE
STATE ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.
I THINK ANGELA CORY PANICKING
IS TRYING TO CLOUD THE ISSUE BY
CLAIMING THERE WAS SOME SORT OF
WRONGDOING ON MY PART WHEN
REALLY THE ISSUE IS THAT SHE
DID NOT REVEAL THAT THE MEDICAL
EXAMINER WAS DIAGNOSED WITH
ALZHEIMER'S AND THAT THE CASE
THAT IS SUBSEQUENTLY WENT TO
TRIAL THERE COULD HAVE BEEN
SOME CROSS EXAMINATION BASED ON
THAT FACT.
>> WHITE DIDN'T CONTACT HER
ABOUT THE STORY.
