Physician sued for making “lipo-diesel” from patients’ fat [news]

Craig Alan Bittner apparently created “lipo-diesel” from his patient’s fat and used it to fuel his Ford SUV and his girlfriend’s Lincoln Navigator.

An attorney for three of the patients suing Bittner says his assistant and girlfriend removed more fat than necessary — presumably to use it for making the fuel — and that the patients were disfigured because of it. Neither his girlfriend nor the assistant had medical licenses.

Bittner’s practice, Beverly Hills Liposculpture, closed in November. It’s unclear when he started and stopped making his “lipo-diesel” or how he made it.
