Schumacher’s medical records theft suspect found dead
A while back we reported on ex-Formula One champion Michael Schumacher’s medical records that were stolen. Well it now so happens that the man who is suspected of stealing them has been found dead in his jail cell.
The suspect, whose identity was never revealed, worked for the Swiss helicopter air rescue company, Rega, that transported Schumacher from a French hospital to Switzerland in June.
He was arrested on Tuesday but denied any wrongdoing. He was being held in a Zurich police holding cell and was found hanged when officers came to bring him breakfast before his scheduled hearing.
Rega chief Ernst Kohler said, “We are deeply affected to learn … that a Rega employee, taken into custody yesterday upon suspicion of violating professional secrecy, committed suicide in his cell.”
