Federal prosecutors dismissed charges against Dr. Eithan Haim, who was indicted for unlawfully obtaining patient information from Texas Children's Hospital regarding gender-affirming care. Haim's case, originally centered on allegations of accessing confidential data under false pretenses to damage the hospital's reputation, was dismissed with prejudice, preventing future charges. Haim claimed to act as a whistleblower against the hospital’s practices, which were already under scrutiny due to its earlier commitment to stop providing gender-affirming care for minors. Major medical organizations endorse such care, complicating the narrative surrounding Haim's actions.
"We took on the most powerful federal leviathan in human history and won," Haim told Fox News following the dismissal.
The original indictment from the Department of Justice in June of 2024 alleged that Haim obtained personal information... without authorization.
