Doctor is accused of waterboarding 11-year-old stepdaughter

DOVER, Del. — A Delaware pediatrician who achieved national recognition for his research into near-death experiences involving children may have been experimenting on his 11-year-old stepdaughter by waterboarding her, police said in court documents.

The possible link between Dr. Melvin Morse’s research and the waterboarding allegations was revealed in an affidavit for a search warrant for Morse’s computers. The document was obtained Tuesday by The Associated Press.

Comments

This monster should be stripped of his license to practice, and thrown in jail. It's too much to hope that he'll somehow be waterboarded himself.
