So the United Airlines Doctor was Accused of Phony Prescriptions in Exchange for Gay Sex

Dr. David Dao

InquistrDavid Dao has been identified as the United Airlines passenger who appeared in the viral videos that featured Dao bloodied and re-boarding the infamous United flight saying, “Just kill me,” …

According to the Kentucky Board of Medical Licensure, Dao performed a genital exam on a patient who came to David for chest pain and a collapsed lung. When Dao made the man his office manager and the man later quit, David stalked the man and offered him prescription pills for sex acts.

“[T]he Board learned that the licensee had become sexually interest [sic] in a patient who had been referred to his practice…The licensee performed a complete physical examination, including a genital examination, for Patient A who had been referred for collapsed lungs and chest pain…The licensee made Patient A his officer manager; according to Patient A, he quit that job because of the inappropriate remarks made by the licensee; after he quit, the licensee pursued him aggressively, finally arranging to provide controlled substance prescriptions in exchange for sexual acts.” …

According to WAVE3, the then 57-year-old Dao faced 98 charges of illegal drug trafficking and prescription filling. … Dao faced up to 20 years in prison.

Such is life in 2017. One minute you’re the biggest story in the country, a universally sympathetic figure and a symbol of people oppressed by evil corporate entities the world over. The next minute, you’re a learned doctor with a long time wife and loving grandchildren. And then the next, you’re a molesting, bisexual, philandering, sexually harassing, pill popping, malpracticing hack who writes phony scripts for money and sex. Allegedly.

And this is just 24 hours after the plane incident went viral. Wait until United has bled a few more hundreds of millions of dollars of net worth from the fallout of this. They’ve no doubt got their goons right now digging into Dao’s past and in a few days they’ll have us believing he was the Chief of Surgery for the Torture Department of the Hanoi Hilton.

But that’s our reality in the Internet world. Everyone’s got some sort of skeletons in their closet and they can’t stay hidden for more than a few hours. And if you happen to stumble into fame, be prepared to have everything in your past exposed. And unless you want a multi-billion dollar company telling the world about the time you offered prescription drugs in exchange for your office manager’s D, you might want to consider the option of just taking the 800 bucks they offer you and leaving the plane quietly. Let this be a lesson to anyone with a sordid history of sex and substance abuse, which is pretty much 100 percent of us.
