A former Beverly Hills plastic surgeon is in trouble with the law because he fueled his car with human fat sucked from his patients.
California public health officials say that it is illegal because state law forbids the use of human medical waste to power vehicles.
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.

Dozens of other patients have complained about Bittner to the state medical board. The board is investigating Bittner, but has made no official comment.
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.
