Ok, well we hear all the stories about stolen medical records and these folks obviously have too and decided to take action...but the wrong type of action...a big bon fire on the farm was not the appropriate answer...but one thing for sure is that nobody will ever get any information from what was contained here, although some of what was destroyed may have contained some vital records history too on the other hand...BD

Michigan authorities announced Friday that they plan to prosecute those responsible for the decision to burn tens of thousands of medical records on a farm in Salem Township. The records, some of which dated back a half-century and included Social Security numbers and X-rays, were found in burning piles Thursday by firefighters responding to a call.

The farm is owned by Dr. Soon K. Kim, a psychiatrist and businessman whose management company reportedly oversaw the hospital.

Kim, who authorities say lives in California, could not be reached for comment Friday.
