A
STANDARD SYSTEM FOR INVESTIGATING AND CLASSIFYING VIOLENT CRIMES SECOND EDITION
Outcome
The case was
solved when Ross killed himself. In a four-page letter sent to NBC5 in Chicago,
Ross outlined his grievance and desire for revenge. In 1992, he had had surgery
for mouth cancer, which left him with a facial disfigurement. In 1995 he filed a
medical malpractice suit, but the suit was dismissed because no violations had
been noted in his medical records. Over the next seven years, Ross regularly
filed appeals, becoming more and more frustrated by the system. He sent an angry
letter to the governor and said he was unfairly represented by his lawyers. In
2004, he filed a civil rights case against the government, his lawyers, the
doctors, and the hospital. Judge Leftkow dismissed the case due to lack of
presentation of new evidence, and in October she denied a motion to reconsider.
