A BEVERLY HILLS PLASTIC SURGEON
WHO WORKS WITH A LOT OF
CELEBRITIES SAYS THAT HIS OFFICE
HAS BEEN COMPROMISED BY A FORMER
EMPLOYEE AND WHAT I SAY
COMPROMISED, HE SAYS THIS PERSON
HAS INFORMATION AND PHOTOS
BEFORE AND HALF OF ALL OF HIS
PATIENTS, SOME OF THEM
CELEBRITIES.
HARVEY: BEFORE AND AFTER WITH
SURGERIES, ACTUALLY VIDEOED
DURING SURGERIES OF THESE
PEOPLE.
HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED.
ACCORDING TO THE DOCTOR, HIS
NAME IS ZAIN KADRI, HE HIRED A
WOMAN AND SHE WORKED THERE FOR
ABOUT SIX MONTHS AND DURING THAT
TIME, HE IS SAYING SHE DID ALL
SORTS OF THINGS, SHE STOLE,
EMBEZZLED, SHE DID ALL SORTS OF
THINGS.
HE EVENTUALLY HAD TO GET A
RESTRAINING ORDER AGAINST HER,
SHE THREATENED TO KILL HIM.
THEY GET A RESTRAINING ORDER.
I DON'T KNOW IF SHE VIOLATES IT
OR NOT.
THEY GET THE CORPORATE CELL
PHONE, THE PHONE THEY HAD GIVEN
HER WHILE SHE WAS AN EMPLOYEE.
SHE STARTED GOING THROUGH THE
PHONE AND THEY REALIZE ACCORDING
TO THEM, SHE IS SECRETLY TAKING
PICTURES OF PATIENTS FILES.
SHE IS RECORDING SURGERIES,
RECORDING THE BEFORE AND AFTER
PICTURES IN THE FILE.
CHARLES: SHE HAD BEEN RECORDING
THE DOCTOR ALSO WHEN SHE WAS
DRIVING HIM PLACES, AND HE LIKE
FELL ASLEEP, SHE RECORDED VIDEOS
OF HIM.
HARVEY: THEY HAVE A TON OF
CELEBRITIES ACCORDING TO THE
DOCTOR'S OWN WEBSITE, A TON OF
CELEBRITIES WHO HAVE GONE TO
HIM, 15,000 MEDICAL FILES WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT, MANY OF WHOM ARE
CELEBRITY CLIENTS.
ALL OF A SUDDEN WE FIND OUT THIS
MORNING THAT THIS IS BEING
INVESTIGATED BY THE L.A. COUNTY
SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AND THAT
ALL OF THESE FILES, PERSONAL
INFORMATION, SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBERS, CREDIT CARD NUMBERS,
BUT ALSO THESE VERY PERSONAL
THINGS ABOUT MEDICAL HISTORY,
ALL THIS WOMAN SUPPOSEDLY HAS
AND IS ACTUALLY TRYING TO PUT IT
ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
>> HARVEY, THIS IS HUGE CRIMINAL
LIABILITY FOR THIS WOMAN DOING
THIS, IF SHE DID IT, ASSUMING
SHE DID IT.
THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE IS NOT OFF
THE HOOK, THOUGH.
THE REGULATORY SCHEME, THE
FEDERAL SCHEME SETS IT UP SO
THAT THESE DOCTORS HAVE TO
PROPERLY TRAIN THEIR EMPLOYEES
AND MONITOR THEIR EMPLOYEES.
IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR THEM TO JUST
SAY, HEY, WE DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS
HAPPENING, WE'RE OFF THE HOOK.
THERE COULD BE HUGE CIVIL
LIABILITY FOR THIS DOCTOR.
CHARLES: THIS ISN'T ABOUT
TRAINING SOMEONE.
HARVEY: SHE IS A CRIMINAL.
SHE MAY BE EXTREMELY COMPETENT,
IF SHE IS A CRIMINAL, HOW IS
THAT ON THE DOCTOR?
>> ON THE DOCTOR IF HE DIDN'T
TRAIN OR SUPERVISE THE EMPLOYEE.
HARVEY: SHE IS A CAPABLE
EMPLOYEE BUT ALSO A CROOK?
CHARLES: TAKING PHOTOS OF
SOMEONE'S MEDICAL FILES, SUSPECT
THAT OBVIOUSLY --
>> THESE CAME OUT OF ALL OF
THOSE BREAK-INS AT VARIOUS
HOSPITALS AROUND THE COUNTRY
WHERE VARIOUS PEOPLE, NURSES AND
DOCTORS WOULD TAKE PRIVATE
INFORMATION AND SELL IT OUT INTO
THE PUBLIC AT LARGE.
AND BECAUSE OF THAT, THERE IS A
HUGE FEDERAL, YOU KNOW IT,
HIPAA, THESE REGULATIONS, THEY
SPECIFICALLY SAY BECAUSE A
DOCTOR DOES NOT SPECIFICALLY
KNOW OF THE CONDUCT OF AN
EMPLOYEE DOES NOT MEAN THEY
DON'T HAVE CIVIL LIABILITY
UNLESS THEY WERE TAKING STEPS TO
TRY TO PREVENT THAT FROM
HAPPENING.
WE DON'T HAVE THAT INFORMATION
HERE YET.
HARVEY: THEORETICALLY, IF THIS
WOMAN AS A PART OF HER JOB HAD
THE RIGHT TO GO IN THE FILES, HE
HAD TRAINED HER PROPERLY --
>> DONE THE PROPER TRAINING AND
SUPER VISION, THERE IS ACTUALLY
A SAFE HARBOR.
IF HE HASN'T DONE THOSE THINGS,
HE WOULD BE CIVILLY LIABLE FOR
SURE.
CALLER: HI, I'M CALLING FROM
WEST LAFAYETTE, INDIANA.
TO ME, I FEEL LIKE SHE DID A BAD
THING.
AT THE SAME TIME, THEY SHOULD
HAVE DONE MORE TO KEEP THE
INFORMATION MORE PRIVATE AND THE
SECURITY MORE.
HARVEY: OK, WE WILL, WE'RE
OBVIOUSLY GOING TO PUT MORE ON
THIS ON THE WEBSITE ON THIS
STORY AS WE FIND OUT.
WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS.
