I know this investigation is just getting under way, and a lot more information may come to light, which might change the circumstances in question. But right now, given the horrible, and unprecedented medical and humanitarian circumstances that occured during Katrina, and given the unthinkable choices these professionals were facing, I can only hope that if these patients had been my parents or loved ones, these people would be heroes in my eyes to have avoided their needless suffering, not arrested like common criminals.
