This looks like something that an Oregon criminal attorney should probably advise you on. The question was probably overlooked for three weeks because of the "Personal Injury" or "Family Law" headings. If you're being charged, don't lose further time awaiting guidance... View More
In 2016 I was taken to OHSU because I had contracted necrotizing fasciitis from the Clackamas River. They knew that my legs needed to be amputated in order to save my life but instead they gave me an experimental drug without my consent to see if it would stop the rate of the infection.
