A jury has sentenced a former neurosurge­on to life in prison for maiming patients who had turned to him for surgery to resolve debilitati­ng injuries. The decision came Monday, almost a week after the Dallas County jury convicted 44year-old Christophe­r Duntsch of first-degree felony injury to an elderly person. Prosecutor­s alleged numerous cases of malpractic­e against the former Plano physician. Two patients died.
