Different rules being used to take Bosworth’s license to practice medicine.
Does anyone care about the double standard of “justice” being used to persecute this woman?
The South Dakota Board of Medical and Osteopathic Examiners is in the process of taking Bosworth’s license because she is a convicted felon. In case you have forgotten, her “criminal, felony behavior” is signing as circulator on a political petition when she did not personally witness several of the signatures.
The SDBMOE seems intent on taking her license because of her felony status. How can they justify this kind of action against Bosworth when they allowed another doctor to keep his license with MANY serious felony convictions?
Some clips from the SDBMOE proceedings include the following…
The SDBMOE response to this information….
The double standard is unbelievable.
Attorney General Marty Jackley prosecuted Bosworth with 12 felony charges for petition violations, while refusing to pursue others, such as Steve Hickey for the same violations. One might ask, “why???”
Now the SDBMOE is taking her license because she is a “felon”, even though they refused to take the license of another doctor who was convicted of multiple, serious felony charges.
Is this how justice is dispensed in South Dakota? Apparently. Why is Bosworth such a threat to the establishment? What compels Jackley and the SDBMOE to apply the rules differently to Bosworth?
South Dakota deserves better. So does Dr. Bozworth.
This misappropriation of justice is shameful.

this sickens me. To think that one man can take a person, and roll her over the coals, ruin her life long education and true life work of becoming one of the best doctors. It is just unbelievable that 32 signatures (by the way that were not really necessary as she had plenty of signatures without counting these) Could become 12 felonies and cause the lose of a medical license that does not come cheaply or lightly. Not everyone can become a doctor. Ms Bosworth is a very caring and giving Doctor. Those are even more rare in South Dakota. I feel like the whole group that bullied up on this woman need to be tried for hate crimes.
An answer to Gordon’s question: Matt Michels is also included in a law suit which involves the death and maiming of patients under Dr Sossan. The suit (filed July2) identifies our Lt Governor Matt Michels and the Med Board as accomplishes to a crime. They love money …They LOVE money. They will do anything for the love of money. They will allow South Dakotans to be maimed, to suffer, and to die as long as the Medical ObamaCare gravy train rolls along well for Avera. We have a sick Lt Governor. Ill give you some history. When he was first accepted to Law School, he and I worked together at Dakota Hospital in Vermillion. During a break one day conversations turned to ethics and Matt Michels admonished me saying Lora, you are so absolute!” as if that was a problem. He had just learned in Law school that there were no absolutes…there were no rights or wrongs….there was only legal and illegal. SO with leadership like that is it any wonder there is unequal application of the law in SD?
This is an OUTRAGE! I find it baffling that South Dakotacitizens don’t see this as a threat to their own freedoms.
Dr. Bosworth made some mistakes. Pissing off Marty Jackley apparently was the major one. But come on people—this is not worthy of taking a brilliant physician/ licnse and livelihood.
Why aren’t ohers stepping up to support her? Because the press and the good ol’ boy’s club has tried to make her look crazy?? She is one of the very BEST physicians I know. I love her as the compassionate, generous, loving, faith-filled woman that she is.
Why wasn’t the other physician prosecuted when he committed real crimes. ai am amazed at some of the crazy rationale those against her have…it’s insane. She has been a pioneer, recruited t
home to SD for her innovation and knowledge. It makes me wonder, are people afraid of a young, intelligent physicuan who has wanted to take medicine–especially addiction treatment down a path that they can’t see will greatly benefit our citizens, especially our teens.
Pleas, please step up to the plate–speak up so that SD can keep one of it’s top physicians and teachers.
Dr. Bosworth should have Zero felonies. They should have been reduced to misdemeanors. Marty Jackey would not do that because he has been after her for years. Yes she is a threat to the Establishment. Not one Legislator stood up for her because they are also afraid of the establishment. Oh, I better not question MJ, because he is a nice guy. Come on folks, quit being so naïve. Your leaders don’t care about Indians that Annette has been having a major impact on. They don’t care about poor people that Annette takes care of for free. They only care about themselves and inner circle where they can benefit from each other and their crony political clan. Thanks to FORMER Legislators Gordon Howie and Lora to expose the power of abuse of the unfair treatment of Annette Bosworth.
my mother although popular with the voters was wrangled unjustly by bullies and lost her final attempt to continue to do good for SD. Honesty and doing what is right just does not sit right with the bullies that want to make all the money they get from Companies that do not give a rats — about the people of SD. Pollution and the environment is not of their concern at ALL. They want the money. I think my mom would be fighting on the side of justice here: Ms. Bosworth would have mom’s complete support.
