http://dailybruin.com/2014/09/12/medical-student-arrested-for-allegedly-stealing-ipad-from-dying-woman/

Quote:
A UCLA medical student who allegedly stole an iPad from a dying woman in the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center will appear in court Friday morning.

University police arrested Virginia Nguyen, a 32-year-old medical student and research fellow who worked at the hospital, in late March after finding her with the device.

Family members of Natalie Packer, who died of breast cancer earlier this year at age 30, said they discovered that her iPad went missing from her hospital room after she died. Several days later, they found the device still inside the hospital by using the “Find my iPad” app.


Well, if I'm not the kind of student David Geffen SOM's looking for, maybe that's a good thing now.

Read about this story last week....Would be really dumb to risk your future medical career, which will likely net you millions of dollars over a lifetime for an Ipad which will be obsolete in a year. But then again greed overrules good sense sometimes. I remember there was a pretty high level executive of a company that stole legos and sold them on ebay.

Inside scoop: The culprit, a 3rd year, has the same name as my 4th year classmate. When this story broke I got a flurry of texts expressing shock and disgust and "I can't believe she would do this! I just paid for dinner with her yesterday!", etc. Naturally, most of her shipmates bombarded her with phone calls and texts to which she didn't respond for at least a day so they/we all assumed the story was true and continued to damn her soul. Then the police released the info that it was some other Nguyen. Turns out the innocent Nguyen was in bed sick all day. She immediately took to her own defense when she found out.

Innocent: https://www.facebook.com/virginia.nguyen.52?fref=ts

Guilty: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2014/09/12/article-2753806-214FCC0300000578-852_634x629.jpg

I've actually crossed paths with the evil Nguyen on several occasions. Once at a Geffen mixer at Busby's east (this is a UCLA joint) and a few times both on campus and in Reagan. Everytime, she came off as a self-absorbed C.

Can't believe she's going with the "I thought it was my iPad" defense. Nobody brings an iPad to a code blue. Now back to Westminster with you where you can run a Paris Baguette or a Lee's Sandwiches if you're lucky.

Quote:
A few days after Natalie Packer's death, she activated Apple's finder app, and it discovered the iPad at the Medical Center. It also revealed that "Natalie's iPad" had been re-registered with Apple as "Virginia's iPad," Heller said.


That pretty much killed that defense. It's one thing to pick up someone else's iPad by mistake, but to have it for days and not realize your mistake and then re-register it in your own name? I wonder if she reset everything back to default and wiped out all the correspondence the dying woman had written to her sister.

In a few years she'll probably star in a CMB Sass Machine video.

Honest mistake.

After all... it's not like Nguyen is a common name or anything...

The Nguyen part isn't interesting...there are a hundred Nguyens in the program. The interesting part is that two of them are named Virginia.

I'm surprise didn't try to do some plea bargain. Compensate the family, kneel and ask for forgiveness to not press charges. Her career is pretty much screwed now. She could try to apply for med school again in another state.

But better shes not a doctor, because shows she's unscrupulous.

You mean another country. No school in the US is going to accept her again especially after the background check.
