Dr. Thompson testifies!

This is the LA doctor who assaulted the cyclists "to teach them a lesson."

The cyclists involved had GPS units mounted on their handlebars.  The data from the GPS units show that when the doctor overtook the cyclists and "brake tested" them--the bikes were going 25-29 mph.  Trying to stop a bicycle going this fast is impossible when a car pulls in front of you and stops.  One of the cyclists was thrown into the doctor's rear window and his nose was severed.  I have the picture but I'll spare you.
