After Australian GP Michael Bar-Mordecai’s 83-year-old patient Eveline Hillston died in 1994, six minutes after he’d given her a shot of morphine, the medic, 36 years her junior, claimed the pair had been having sex four times a week and, as her de facto partner, he was entitled to her estate.
In September 2000, Bar-Mordecai was struck off the medical register, with a tribunal finding he had treated Hillston for more than a decade while they were in a personal relationship and had obtained more than a million dollars in cash and property from her.
Last week, after almost a quarter of a century trying to overturn his deregistration, Bar-Mordecai’s 42nd attempt failed.
In 1998, Bar-Mordecai lost his claim to Hillston’s estate, with the judge making note of his “highly unusual” medical records in which he’d listed Hillston’s wealth at A$2 million (NZ$2.2 million), stated he was her de facto and that she was a virgin until the age of 72 as she had never had sex with her late husband. According to Bar-Mordecai’s records, she was now having “Coitus 4 x week”, with “100% Orgasm Frequency”.
