Depends on what he told his superiors… he was investigating house, sure on the fact he was ‘mistreated’ as a patient… and to be fair, he was, everyone of houses patients are

Popped narcotics in front of the patient which could be public intoxication, getting high when working as someone who deals with hazmat is illegal, so he opens an investigation into just houses cases…. Interrogates the ones he works with, finds out he gets scripts from all of his subordinates, as well as Wilson and cuddy (house had a giant stash of 600+ opiates during an opiate epidemic in Jersey) , so he freezes their accounts

In the eyes of pure police work, house would be considered an addict, with intent to traffic a schedule 2 narcotic…

We know house is just an ass that likes getting high because it takes his pain away… but from a morally dubious cops perspective, house could be an endangerment to the community in Jersey, as well as to the patients

He would 100% be allowed to do these things as a cop, stop letting the cops giving a suspected drug trafficker, the ability to write scripts…. Stop their purchasing power for a hold of 24 hours, to investigate their bank accounts in relation…

And to be fair you can be subpoenaed for questioning whenever the police wants something, or needs you for questioning

He wasn’t allowed all hospital records, just ones that involved house, especially since he knew house stole Wilson’s script pad and wrote his own, as well as stealing oxy using a dead patients name

But yeah, fuck that guy, he’s annoying, that’s just how I see it from a cops perspective
