Medicine: the psychos they let in here

The story of Robert Howard is a modern medical fable. Howard was an olympic triple jumper, and apparently had the grades and whatever to get into med school. Only problem? He was a psycho with a violent criminal record, but nobody checked his background, b/c he checked the "nope I've never been convicted of a felony" box on his application. So come third year, he kills his wife and himself. Suprise! Good screening, University of Arkansas!

Although, I don't think any med students are surprised that we might have violent psychopaths in our midst.
