Sacramento Man Kills "Client" in Illegal Chiropractic Session

A Sacramento man died last June from injuries he sustained during an illegal chiropractic session.

The 76 year old man and his wife visited the home of Antonio Arellano, 66 years old, out of which Arellano was operating an unlicensed chiropractic office.

Sacto 9-1-1 reported:

According to police, the victim and his wife went to Arellano's Oak Park home Tuesday. Arellano had run an unlicensed chiropractic business out of his garage for some time and the victim had gone there to receive treatment to alleviate pain in his extremities, police said.

According to Sacto 9-1-1, Arellano was adjusting the victim's neck and seriously injured it. The victim was brought to UC Davis where he was put on life support until he was pronounced brain dead two days later.

Arellano has been arrested on suspicion of murder.

Nobody in Sacramento (or anywhere else) asks to get a Brain Injury

You will never see a “To-Do List” like this:

• Get laundry
• Pay bills
• Mow lawn
• Get brain injury

Nobody ever asks to get a brain injury but it happens anyway. Everyday, people in all walks of life, become victims of brain injury. Brain injury can be a result of depriving the brain of oxygen, as a result of illness, injury, poisoning, (including alcohol) and even chemotherapy. Sometimes brain injury is an act of nature and sometimes it is an act of another.

The impact of a brain injury on someone’s life is dramatic. It can be as simple as almost unnoticeable personality changes to permanent disability. Delusions, speech or movement problems, and even mental handicap can result from brain injury. In the most extreme, coma or even death may be the result of brain injury.

Sometimes brain injury could be avoided. It can be as simple as a motorcycle rider wearing a helmet. Wearing a helmet has vastly improved the odds of avoiding a brain injury during a motorcycle accident.

Here in Sacramento at the Law Office of Moseley Collins, we are not physicians but we are legal advocates dedicated to helping restore a person’s quality of life.
