A labor and delivery nurse who was recently fired for a vulgar video in which she wished pregnant White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt serious harm while giving birth has now lost her license.
“Effective today, Lexie Lawler is no longer allowed to practice nursing in Florida,” Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced on social media Wednesday, praising the state’s surgeon general, Joseph A. Ladapo (MD, PhD), for revoking the license of a healthcare professional who publicly wished harm on a pregnant woman:
“Making statements that wish pain and suffering on anyone, when those statements are directly related to one's practice, is an ethical red line we should not cross. I'm proud of @FLSurgeonGen for taking this decisive action.”
"The comments made in a social media video by a nurse at one of our facilities do not reflect our values or the standards we expect of healthcare professionals," a Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital spokesperson told Fox News on Thursday. "Following a prompt review, the individual is no longer employed by our health system."
“Being fired isn’t good enough. Any healthcare worker who fails to uphold his or her obligation to provide adequate, safe healthcare should not be licensed in Florida,” AG Uthmeier posted on Monday, reacting to a subsequent death-wish video posted by Lawler.
“Meet Lexie Lawler, a labor and delivery nurse at Baptist Health Boca Raton Regional Hospital (@BaptistHealthSF),” Libs of TikTok wrote Thursday on social media, posting a video clip of Lawler’s vulgar comments:
“She says she hopes Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt suffers a severe 4th-degree tear during childbirth and has medical complications.
"‘I hope you f**king rip from bow to stern and never s**t normally again, you c**t.’”
“This woman DELIVERS BABIES. Terrifying.”
