Testicle Surgery Mystifies Police
ST. PAUL, Minn. - When conventional medical professionals refused to remove a 62-year-old local man's testicles, police said he turned to mysterious "professionals" to relieve what he called chronic pain.
Now police want to find the fly-by-night surgeons.
"I have never in my life seen anything quite like that," said St. Paul police spokesman Tom Walsh.
According to a search warrant affidavit filed Monday, the man complained of chronic pain and turned to conventional medical personnel to remove his testicles.
When they refused, the 62-year-old man said he hired other "professionals" to do the surgery. He would not tell officers who they were, saying he didn't want to get them into trouble.
Police said a couple of weeks ago, two or three people operated on the man in his home. He was unconscious. When he woke up, his testicles were gone. So were his "professionals."
His groin area was bleeding heavily, so he called his daughter. She called for help.
Police found an improvised operating room in the man's house, with bright lights, an apparent operating table, a camera and various medical supplies and equipment. There was also blood in several rooms of the house.

Wow.
Not much you can say about that story.
In St Paul too.
I actually wonder if he was Hmong.
Not being racist by any means, but I do know that some of the traditional families from SE Asia still practice their cultural version of medicine, and there is a very large Hmong population in the Cities.

He had enough balls to get rid of them at his home.
I'm guessing he was in a lot of pain.
