Bohn spent seven months in Anchorage and Seattle hospitals diagnosed with a brain infection. A state-appointed guardian made his medical decisions.
An Anchorage magistrate recommended ending the guardianship during a closed-door hearing Friday. Mario Bird, the family's attorney, confirmed in an email Tuesday that the case was closed and, he wrote, "Bret’s family is celebrating!"

Why was this court hearing closed?
Who will answer for this legal and medical malpractice?
And why does it take the bright spotlight of media and internet attention to get the judge to do the right thing?
Guardianship is supposed to be for the benefit of the incapacitated person, not a way to stomp on the rights of a citizen in need of help, enforce the will of unaccountable medical personnel, and enrich unethical, sleazy lawyers.
The medical profession must be stopped from using guardianship as a control device.
I am glad he's free. Now I hope the family recoups and starts holding people accountable.
