Baylor Medical Records Found in Dumpster

Posted on April 12, 2010 by Dissent

Richard Ray reports:

Thousands of medical records have apparently been stolen from Baylor Health Care System and Dallas police are seeking to file felony charges for identity theft.

Police said their investigation began this past Thursday at an apartment complex in far north Dallas.

“Officers were flagged down by an apartment manager regarding medical records found in a dumpster,” said Cpl. Gerardo Monreal.

According to the police report, thousands of records including x-rays were discovered. Maintenance workers reported seeing two people tossing them late at night.

Police reportedly searched an apartment at the complex and found more records in the garage.
