Rhode Island man accused of killing ex-Olympic chiropractor blames his therapist in lawsuit
Fox News
A Rhode Island man charged in the brutal stabbing of a chiropractor who worked at two Olympic games is accusing his former therapist of providing negligent care before the killing.
Bridgham, 67, was a sports medicine specialist and worked at the Rio and Salt Lake City Olympic Games. Morris, a Warren resident, is charged with first-degree murder. He has pleaded not guilty. In his lawsuit, Morris accused Fletcher and Greene of providing negligent care in the two months that led to a psychiatric episode on the day of the killing, the newspaper reported. As a result, Morris contends, he has been deprived of his freedom, was severely and permanently injured and has spent significant sums of money on health care expenses and will continue to do so. Bridgham surrendered his license after Morris, then 19, accused him of violating "the professional boundaries of the chiropractic physician-patient relationship."More Related News
