    I'm a bit skeptical. Just read that his manager says it didn't happen. Could be another rumor spreading like wildfire. That's happened often enough on this story alone to justify bit of healthy skepticism. Fingers crossed, though, while I watch for something that looks like confirmation.

    Official report from Michael's management team this morning is that Michael is now out of his coma and is out of the hospital and moved to another location "where he will continue his rehabilitation out of the public eye."

    This is being reported on the major news networks.

    Stealing medical records and selling them to the highest bidder? Yet another example of what scumbag humans are willing to do these days. :frown2:

    Any person, media outlet, etc, who buys them is as contemptible as the scum who stole them and I think even the courts might agree.

    I agree that the high courts should punish them but if it was you or I or some other no name, no one would give a damn.

    And I thought it was bad when, shortly after the accident, a reporter (or it may have been a photographer) was caught trying to sneak into Schumacher's room dressed as a priest.

    Bottom feeders.
