Thought this was just too bizarre to pass up: A construction worker who was hit on the head by a falling beam was apparently forced to undergo a rectal exam to determine whether or not he had spinal damage...? Here's more:

When Persaud resisted, staffers held him down while he begged, "Please don't do that," Marrone said. Persaud hit a doctor while flailing around, so the staffers gave him a powerful sedative and performed the rectal exam, he said.

Hospital witnesses testified at trial that the exam was never completed, but Marrone said that when Persaud woke up he was handcuffed to a bed and had an oxygen tube down his throat and lubricant in his rectum.

The construction worker felt that the doctor performed the exam in retaliation for being hit. He sued the hospital, but a jury found the hospital did nothing wrong. Yeah, but was the doctor hot? That kinda makes all the difference, right?

Imagine the law suit this guy would have brought had the doctor held one of his balls and asked him to cough.
