Speaker: Dr. Michael Flueckiger

Dr. Michael Flueckiger, retired emergency medicine doctor was the medical director of Phoenix Air, a company that specializes in medical evacuations, traveled to North Korea to rescue Otto Warmbier. Warmbier was an American student that was arrested and tortured for stealing a propaganda poster from a hotel.

North Korean authorities sentenced Warmbier to 15 years of hard labor. What happened to him after that isn't clear. He remained imprisoned for 17 months before he was flown home to Cincinnati for medical treatment. By then, doctors said Warmbier had suffered a severe neurological injury. Warmbier, 22, died just days after being returned to the U.S.

How to look up a Law, License Law, Rule or Regulation: From the Georgia Real Estate Commission; On occasion there is need to clarify the use of a legal term or review a license law as it relates to a specific situation. Sometimes there is no clear right or wrong answer and the advice of legal counsel is necessary. However there are times when a specific reference to a license law or other law may set the record straight and resolve a confusing situation.
