A millionaire dentist, Lionel Guedj, and his father Carnot, were jailed in France for performing thousands of unnecessary dental procedures. Lionel, once Europe's highestearning dentist, profited millions by hastily conducting root canals on patients needing simple fillings, claiming the money from social security. His malpractice led to patients suffering chronic pain and tooth loss. Lionel, who owned luxury assets including a Ferrari and properties, was sentenced to eight years, while his father received a fiveyear sentence. The case drew attention partly due to a policewoman escorting them to court, who became an internet sensation for her resemblance to Kim Kardashian. (As reported by @dailymail )
