| Exclusive: Military school knew of doctor's macabre ways for decades Posted: 23 Jul 2015 02:03 PM PDT  By John Shiffman WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The president of the U.S. military's medical college said he took swift action after learning in 2013 that John Henry Hagmann, a former Army doctor teaching there, was injecting students with hypnotic drugs, inducing shock by withdrawing their blood, and performing rectal exams in class. Hagmann was escorted off the Uniformed Services University campus in Maryland, and the college quickly offered students blood tests to determine if they had been exposed to any diseases, school President Charles Rice said. The college also launched an internal investigation into Hagmann's conduct, and it forwarded information to law enforcement authorities and the Virginia Board of Medicine, which revoked Hagmann's license last month.
