A Michigan state senator on Wednesday was put on probation for inappropriately touching a nurse practitioner while receiving COVID-19 treatment.

State Sen. John Bizon, a Battle Creek Republican, was sentenced to a year on probation and will be forced to pay $1,130 in court costs and fines, undergo a mental health test, and comply with a no-contact policy, according to MLive.

. . .

The incident took place last August while the state senator was seeking treatment at an After Hours Express, an urgent care center in Marshall, about an hour west of Ann Arbor. During his visit, Bizon, 70-year-old retired otolaryngologist, began questioning the guidance of his nurse in the exam room.

According to her police report, Bizon grabbed onto her waist and pulled her closer while she was recommending over-the-counter drugs. The state senator later became angry when she refused to prescribe his preferred medication.

4. Patients can get nasty when they don't get their favorite drugs.

I've never had a patient sexually assault me, but death threats aren't fun, either.

I wish they had thrown the book at this sleazebag...

6. Crazy neighbor threatened his Dr. office with mass shooting, was given probation.

Guy was trespassing on my rural property and threatened to burn my house down. Called sheriff, and they told him to not come back onto my property. Yea, that showed him.
His medical office called him and said they would not continue his oxy Rx because he failed a drug test. He said he would come an shoot them all and then himself.
The sheriff swat team did come and arrest him at least. But he was given probation and court costs. But, he did have to move, and I am greatly relieved.

7. This seems to be the public record of the description of the charges and of the trial's results...

It is from Calhoun County, MI:

The police report [purportedly from the above reference: P-67710] could supposedly be gotten from this link with a FOIA request:

Seemingly, he wasn't being prescribed his "preferred treatment". Could his "preferred treatment" (aka, quack medicine) have been ivermectin or hydroxychloroquine or "very powerful light"? Perhaps, the above-noted police report would be specific....


Anyway, his "preferred treatment" was reported nonspecifically by the victim:

In court Wednesday, the victim said Bizon had tried to “tried to bully, coerce and intimidate me to practice quack medicine because he believed in conspiracy theories. ... Mr. Bizon, I forgive you, but I hope we both never forget."
