An appeals court court decision required the trial judge to consider patients, and not only hospitals, as victims of the crime." The law is always more complex than a layman like me thinks, questions of standing, etc. But I would have simply assumed that the patients hurt and killed would naturally be counted among the victims and not just the organisations left out-of-pocket.
