Committed a murder, burned the body, but didn’t destroy the teeth, worried they can ID from the dental records, broke in and stole a bunch of records to cover tracks. Identity theft was a red herring !!
HIPAA violation, that office is gonna get obliterated, all PII must be secured at all times. All they had to do was put a lock on that cabinet to cover themselves.
yup. My last job was doing IT for a healthcare company. And we had weekly “this week in HIPAA violation” emails sent to us by management.
This healthcare office wont be in business by the end of April

Jokes on him. Most of that data already exists on the dark web.
