Paterson 'abused' patients' trust, says Solicitor General

Ian Paterson, a surgeon who carried out needless breast operations, has had his 15-year jail sentence increased to 20 years by judges. The decision came after Solicitor General Robert Buckland referred the case to the Court of Appeal for review. After the ruling Mr Buckland said: “Throughout our lives we are told to trust doctors. Paterson woefully abused that trust.” Report by Chulanin. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
