Florida doctor charged in death

The indictment follows a two-year investigation by local law enforcement and medical authorities into the fatal error.

Prosecutors allege that Shaknovsky attempted to cover up the mistake by requesting staff to label the liver as a 'spleen' before sending it to pathology.

The case has drawn national attention to patient safety and surgical oversight in the state.

Shaknovsky was arrested on Monday and is currently facing a second-degree manslaughter charge, which could carry a significant prison sentence if he is convicted.
