A Pennsylvania veterinarian's public reprimand by the State Board of Veterinary Medicine was overturned by a Commonwealth Court panel, according to the Associated Press. The veterinarian had told an elderly woman that she would "rot in hell" for complaining to state regulators about how the veterinarian had euthanized her dog. The court ruled that his conduct was unprofessional, but that unprofessional conduct isn't the same as professional incompetency.
