A California surgeon is demanding the 'All Day' rapper clear his name

Nearly eight years after the sudden death of Kanye West's mom, Donda West, the plastic surgeon who performed her operation is pointing fingers and asking the rapper to clear his name.
In speaking with the New York Daily News, Dr. Jan Adams said he believes he was scapegoated after Donda's operation in November 2007 where she received liposuction, tummy-tuck and breast-reduction surgery. He believes the blame should be placed on Kanye's cousin, Stephan Scoggins, who didn't follow proper post-surgery protocol.
"It baffles me when nobody wants to know the truth. I think [Kanye] should stand up and tell the truth, and the truth will set you free," Adams said. "I think the truth needs to be out there. If he had any b-lls or if he was any kind of man he could [speak up]. But the real answer is he probably won't."
Adams claimed the family allowed Scoggins, a registered nurse with a Ph.D. in public health, to take over Donda's post-surgery care, despite his recommendation of a private recovery center. Adams believes Scoogins failed to properly care for Donda, even leaving her with untrained friends just one day after surgery in order to attend a baby shower.
A coroner's report found that both vomiting and "medication use for pain" were both contributing factors, but was unable to determine the exact "manner of death." The coroner never faulted Adams.
"It's a complete tragedy," Adams said. "Don't get me wrong, it makes me sick. She was a nice person. I do feel sad about what happened. [...] It didn't need to happen, that’s why it’s sad. She should still be alive."
