This outcome is a STUNNER.
(Hearing Officer) Renwick ruled that Detective Grus’ efforts undermined public trust, claiming a “reasonable person” would balk at such inquiries into officials.
The Canadian system leaves me speechless, once again.

Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus has been found guilty of discreditable conduct after a lengthy hearing.
Grus, a diligent detective renowned for her investigative prowess, was serving in the Sexual Assault and Child Abuse unit when she was charged with discreditable conduct for accessing police records in what was coined an “unauthorized” investigation into suspicious infant deaths following the 2021 COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
Her probe ultimately leaned on a bombshell piece of evidence: Pfizer’s own trial data revealing a staggering 97% infant fatality rate — yet instead of heeding her concerns, the system slammed her for daring to ask questions.

- 2025-03-31 (New) Baby Dies After Receiving 6 Shots for 12 Vaccines — Doctors Say ‘Catching Up’ Kids on Vaccines Is Common, and Dangerous. By Suzanne Burdick, Ph.D., CHD

Former Omaha police detective reveals 50% of SIDS cases happened within 48 hours post vaccine. (Steve speaking): My 16-minute interview of Jennifer, a former police detective in a major US city who handled over 250 SIDS investigations over 7 years implicates the childhood vaccines are the major cause of SIDS.
Executive summary
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) happens to babies, from 1 month to 1 year in age, but most frequently between 2 and 4 months of age.
Recently I interviewed a former police detective who handled over 250 SIDS cases for a major US city. She revealed her full name and I was able to independently verify her employment at the police department.
In the interview, she revealed that 50% of the SIDS cases happened within 48 hours after a vaccine was given and about 70% of the cases happened within one week of a vaccine.
This can only mean one thing: that the childhood vaccines are the leading cause of SIDS deaths.
There is no other explanation.
Even her pediatrician acknowledged this, but they aren’t allowed to talk about it. She said that the American Academy of Pediatrics trains the pediatricians in how to gaslight parents who seek to blame the vaccine.
This is the first time these statistics have ever been revealed publicly.
All the information is independently verifiable in the police records for any health authority who has any doubts.
Also, I am working with the police department to make these statistics public directly from the police department itself (I cannot compel the production of these records because the FOIA laws in the state exempt these records).
My 16-minute interview
The key points
- 3 to 4 cases per month, so over 250 cases total during her tenure
- 50% of SIDS cases happened within 48 hours of a vaccine administration. Assuming kids are vaccinated every month (which is the most conservative assumption), the chance of this happening by chance is 1.23e-64. This means the cases were caused by the vaccine since there is no other viable hypothesis that can explain the evidence.
- 70% of SIDS cases happened within 1 week of a vaccination.
- Her pediatrician acknowledged this and didn’t argue with the data.
- The American Academy of Pediatrics trains doctors on how to gaslight patients who suspect the vaccine caused their child’s death.
- Jennifer declined to publicly reveal her name or the police department she worked for, but revealed this to me so I could verify everything using independent sources.
- The police department declined to respond to my records count request because it is outside the scope of the state’s FOIA laws since it cannot be accomplished with a straightforward query and “research” would be required. I agree with their interpretation, but I’ve requested they comply anyway as a matter of public benefit. I will update this article when I hear back from them.
Police policy is to “leave no stone unturned.” But even after they made the vaccine connection, the coroner ALWAYS ignored even mentioning the vaccine in the autopsy report!
Jennifer wrote me:
Standard police policy was to ask about ANY pharmaceuticals. So while no detective is given a script per se, they are trained on ANY death investigation, of any age, to ask about pharmaceuticals so I guess you’d say unwritten policy only because the official training is “leave no stone unturned “ and ask every single thing that person was doing in the moments hours days and weeks leading up to their death (if it was not an obvious cause of death)…so with a baby: “when was the last time he saw a doc? Was he healthy? any meds or shots ? What has he been eating? What kind of soap do you wash him with? Was he ever out of your care? And if so who was with him?” Would be a typical line of questioning. And my husband just reminded me that the coroner who we had to often report to was especially a stickler on everything that went into that kid food and drug wise. So we just by default always asked since odds were we’d have him answering the call and if we didn’t we’d he’d to go back and get the info for him. Now the irony in that of course is even though we got him all the info, vaccines were never the “cause of death” or even mentioned in final death reports.
Jennifer’s SIDS statistics are validated in the peer-reviewed medical literature!
This paper, Vaccines and sudden infant death: An analysis of the VAERS database 1990–2019 and review of the medical literature, states this:
Of all reported SIDS cases post-vaccination, 75 % occurred within 7 days (p < 0.00001).
This almost exactly matches what Jennifer said in my interview (70% within one week). Neither of us was aware of this article at the time we made the video.
This is impossible if the vaccines aren’t causing SIDS. There is simply no other viable explanation for the association. But of course, you won’t get your paper published if you say that. You have to say that the association is interesting.
Paper by CDC authors observes that nearly 80% the child deaths reported in VAERS happened after multiple vaccinations were given on the same day
In Deaths Reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, United States, 1997–2013, the CDC authors admit that “for child death reports, 79.4% received >1 vaccine on the same day.”
-__–_——_-_–____—
Jennifer is not the only police detective to figure out the connection; Helen Grus in Ottawa found the same thing
In Canada, if you are a police officer and suspect that vaccines cause SIDS, they will prosecute you. It seems that is illegal in Ottawa to question the safety of the vaccines:

The nurse who administered the shots said 1-year-old Sa’Niya needed them to catch her up on vaccinations she missed at her 6-month appointment — a common but potentially dangerous recommendation, according to pediatricians interviewed by The Defender.
Listen to this article Download 00:00/10:27
Roughly 12 hours after 1-year-old Sa’Niya was given six shots for 12 vaccines during a wellness visit, the little girl died. Sa’Niya — who had just turned 1 year old on March 11 — received the shots on March 26 at about 4 p.m., at Golisano Children’s Hospital Pediatric Practice in Rochester, New York, according to the baby’s mother, Shanticia Nelson.
The nurse who administered the shots said Sa’Niya needed them to catch her up on vaccinations she missed at her 6-month appointment — a common but potentially dangerous recommendation, according to several pediatricians interviewed by The Defender.
Nelson, her husband Kayon Carter and Sa’Niya’s grandmother Latricia Hanley shared the story of Sa’Niya’s death in an interview with CHD.TV Program Director Polly Tommey.
“Sa’Niya was a happy baby,” Nelson said. “She was happy and she loved her dad. Everything was ‘dada.’”
According to the visit notes, Sa’Niya was given six shots containing 12 vaccines, including: “DTap/Hep B/IPV (Pediarix), HiB/Acthib/Hiberix, Pneumococcal 20-valent Conj vaccine, Varicella (known commonly as Chickenpox), MMR, and Hepatitis A.”
She also received sodium fluoride as a teeth treatment.
Nelson said she told the nurse she was uncomfortable having Sa’Niya receive so many shots at once. According to Hanley, the nurse became angry and told Nelson, “She needs these shots. You got to give her these shots.”
The nurse never explained the 12 different vaccines and never mentioned the vaccines’ possible side effects, such as seizures and death.
Sa’Niya was a generally healthy baby. However, on the day she received the shots, she had a “little cough and runny nose,” Nelson said. According to the medical notes from the visit, Sa’Niya also had some eczema, diaper dermatitis and constipation.
‘I just want my baby back’
Within hours after receiving the shots, Sa’Niya’s eyes rolled back and she began foaming at the mouth. The police “ended up coming,” Nelson said. They told her it looked as if Sa’Niya had had a small seizure but that she was breathing OK.
Nelson recalled the police saying, “You guys don’t have to take her to the hospital, but if you want to take her to the hospital to make sure she’s OK, they you could do that.”
Nelson knew something was seriously wrong with Sa’Niya. “I looked at my baby and I said, ‘No, my baby is not right … this is not my daughter. My daughter is active. As soon she gets picked up, she’s active.’”
But when Nelson picked her up in that moment, Sa’Niya “just laid there … her eyes just wandered. She wasn’t responding to me calling her name how she used to.”
An ambulance took Sa’Niya to Saint Vincent Hospital in Lake Erie, Pennsylvania, where doctors started running tests on her. They told Nelson it appeared Sa’Niya had had four seizures by the time she arrived at the hospital.
Nelson left the hospital room to bring in her husband and two older children.
The parents and older children hadn’t been in the waiting room for more than two minutes when a nurse told Nelson, “I’m sorry but your daughter — she’s very sick … right now she’s in cardiac arrest.”
Nelson was told that Sa’Niya’s heart wasn’t responding to CPR and that her blood sugar level was over 700.
Hospital staff continued CPR for roughly 40 minutes. They said, “We’re going to check for a pulse one more time, and if we don’t have a pulse anymore, she’s gone.”
Nelson said, “They checked and she didn’t have that pulse.”
That happened around 4 a.m. on March 27, Nelson told The Defender. “I just want my baby back,” Nelson said. “No amount of money in this world can replace my baby … I want justice for my baby.”
Nelson, Carter and Hanley said in their CHD.TV interview that they hope what happened to Sa’Niya will never happen to another child.
They encouraged parents to do their own research rather than trusting medical staff to give informed consent for the risks of vaccination.
“Don’t let your kids take the vaccination shots,” Nelson said. “Ask questions. Before they give you anything, ask questions because I promise you they’re not going to tell you everything.”
Multiple shots at 1-year wellness visit not rare
Dr. Liz Mumper, a pediatrician, said it’s “tragic that a healthy baby died soon after receiving multiple vaccines.” But unfortunately, it’s not as rare as people might think.
Historically, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has “encouraged clinicians to take every opportunity to catch babies up on vaccines,” Mumper said.
She disagreed with claims that all babies can handle lots of vaccines given at the same time. She said:
“Specifically, some babies do not have the liver function or detoxification capacity to handle a cumulative aluminum load. Vaccines stress mitochondria — the powerhouses of the cell. Some babies do not have enough mitochondrial reserve to tolerate the oxidative stress of multiple vaccines on the same day.”
As The Defender previously reported, pediatric clinics can receive multiple financial incentives for administering vaccines. For example, insurance companies may offer pediatricians bonus payments for meeting certain benchmarks, such as having around 80% of patients fully vaccinated by age 2.
The AAP did not immediately respond when The Defender asked how common it is for pediatricians to do catch-up vaccinations — such as giving a 1-year-old additional shots because the baby missed its 6-month vaccinations — and whether the AAP continues to encourage the practice.
1-year visit ‘most dangerous visit of all’
Three other pediatricians — Drs. Renata Moon, Paul Thomas and Lawrence Palevsky — also told The Defender that administering multiple vaccines to babies and children to “catch them up” isn’t all that rare.
“The death of any child is an absolute tragedy,” said Moon. She told The Defender:
“Catch-up vaccines are regularly given in most offices. Parents need to clearly understand the risks and benefits of each individual shot and the risks of giving them in different combinations all at one time.
“We need a public health system that we can trust to act only in the best interests of our nation’s children, and not in the best interests of the pocketbooks of big pharmaceutical companies.”
Dr. Paul Thomas, a Dartmouth-trained pediatrician, said that it’s “very common” for pediatricians to attempt to catch babies and children up on vaccines. “This is routinely done at all well visits.”
Most babies are potentially given around nine vaccines at their 1-year wellness visit if the provider is following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Child and Adolescent Immunization Schedule.
Thomas said, “The one-year well visit has become the most dangerous visit of all — especially if pediatricians are giving the COVID jab.”
The CDC schedule recommends 12-month-olds receive: a third dose of the hepatitis B vaccine, a third or fourth dose of the haemophilus influenzae type B (Hib) vaccine, a fourth dose of the pneumococcal vaccine, the third dose of the polio vaccine, one or more doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, one or two doses of the influenza vaccine, one dose of the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine, one dose of the varicella vaccine, and one dose of the hepatitis A vaccine.
Doctors may also choose to give a dose of the RSV vaccine.
Thomas, author of “Vax Facts: What to Consider Before Vaccinating at All Ages & Stages of Life,” said that in the chapter on sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS, infant deaths are happening right after vaccines with 78.3% (combined data from six studies) dying in the first week after vaccines.
“Vaccines are killing our children,” Thomas continued. “There is data showing that for every vaccine on the childhood schedule, your child is more likely to die from the vaccine than from the disease the vaccine covers.”
He added:
“When you understand that vaccines have never been tested with a proper saline placebo, the safety data is only collected for a few days, weeks or months and they never look at all health outcomes, you begin to understand that parents should think carefully about what they are about to put in their child’s body.
“When injured, you cannot sue anyone or any company. All involved are protected by the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986.”
‘Few, if any, pediatricians understand that vaccines can cause harm or injury’
Dr. Lawrence Palevsky also said it’s “very common” for pediatricians to do as many catch-up vaccines in one pediatric visit as what Sa’Niya received.
“Few, if any, pediatricians understand that vaccines can cause harm or injury,” he said. “They also don’t know that the safety and efficacy of the administration of multiple vaccines at the same time have, for the most part, never been studied.”
Angela Wulbrecht, a nurse who serves on the Vaccine Safety Research Foundation’s board of directors, pointed out the same thing. “I feel like parents are not given true informed consent that these things can happen.”
Wulbrecht is assisting Sa’Niya’s family in completing a Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) report for her death. VAERS is co-managed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the CDC.
Wulbrecht is also working with the family to be sure an independent autopsy of Sa’Niya is completed so her family will have thorough, accurate information about the biological mechanisms that caused her death.
Dr. Jacob Puliyel, head of pediatrics at St. Stephens Hospital Delhi, India, called giving 12 vaccines during one appointment “clearly excessive.”
Puliyel said, “This child was given 12 vaccines, where even five vaccines are associated with sudden deaths.”
In 2018, Puliyel and his colleagues published a peer-reviewed article that suggested a link between SIDS and a pentavalent vaccine. According to the World Health Organization, the pentavalent vaccine protects against five diseases: diphtheria, pertussis, tetanus, hepatitis B and Hib.
In 2017, Puliyel and his colleagues also published findings on a link between SIDS and a hexavalent vaccine that targets diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis, hepatitis B, inactivated poliomyelitis and Haemophilus influenza type B vaccine.
Puliyel said, “Parents must be made aware of these risks and one hopes the U.S. FDA will investigate these reports and inform the public. Doctors need clear guidance about the dangers.”

Vaccine safety advocates hailed HHS Secretary Kennedy’s plan to create an agency within the CDC focused on vaccine injuries and also long COVID and Lyme disease. In an interview with Chris Cuomo, Kennedy also revealed that when he asked an HHS agency for patient data, he was told he’d have to purchase it.
Listen to this article
00:00/07:57
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is creating a new sub-agency under the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that will focus on vaccine injuries.
During an interview Thursday night with Chris Cuomo on “NewsNation,” HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said:
“We’re incorporating an agency within CDC that is going to specialize in vaccine injuries.
“These are priorities for the American people. More and more people are suffering from these injuries, and we are committed to having gold-standard science to make sure that we can figure out what the treatments are and that we can deliver the best treatments possible to the American people.”
Kennedy said the sub-agency is part of a broader focus on conditions that include long COVID and Lyme disease.
He said the pathway to creating the sub-agency wasn’t easy, elaborating on what he said Thursday, when he announced a major restructuring of HHS and the agencies it oversees, that when he requested data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), an HHS agency, he was told HHS would have to purchase it.
Kennedy told Cuomo:
“I tried to get the CMS patient information, which belongs to the American people and belongs to HHS, and the sub-agencies said we have to buy it from them, and it doesn’t make any sense. This is depersonalized data, and we need it to Make America Healthy Again.”
In February, shortly after being confirmed to run HHS, Kennedy promised that under his watch, HHS and CDC would establish a better system for tracking vaccine injuries.
On March 10, Reuters reported that unnamed sources within the CDC leaked that the agency was planning to do a study on the possible link between vaccines and autism. The story triggered an avalanche of negative mainstream news reports claiming the study isn’t needed.
On March 13, President Donald Trump pulled the nomination of Dr. David Weldon, an outspoken advocate for studying the link between autism and vaccines, after it became clear Weldon couldn’t snag the necessary number of votes.
Just this week, The Washington Post, citing anonymous sources, reported that HHS had tapped researcher David Geier — a researcher and expert on the connections between toxic exposures and autism — to lead a study of possible links between vaccines and autism. The Post, followed by other media outlets, used the opportunity to attack Geier and the need for such a study.
‘Critical safety signals may have been buried’
Brian Hooker, Ph.D., chief scientific officer for Children’s Health Defense, welcomed Kennedy’s announcement, describing it as an “excellent” development.
“It is also very sad that agencies within the HHS are ‘selling’ data to other agencies rather than having broad data-sharing both within the HHS, as well as with independent scientists,” Hooker said. “If we are ever going to get to the bottom of the causes of the chronic disease epidemic, independent researchers will need all of the relevant information that our tax dollars have paid for over so many years.”
Research scientist and author James Lyons-Weiler, Ph.D., called the announcement “a historic and long-overdue shift in public health accountability.”
He added:
“For decades, families of the vaccine-injured have been subjected to silence, stonewalling and denial by the very institutions tasked with ensuring safety. This new development is without question a step in the right direction.”
Biologist Christina Parks, Ph.D., who has studied vaccine injuries, said the new sub-agency “will legitimize the suffering of millions of Americans and people around the world who have suffered the agonizing effects of vaccine injury on their health or the health of a child or loved one.”
“Once the reality of vaccine injury is accepted, it will open the door to working with doctors to set a
standard of care for acute vaccine injuries that has the potential to mitigate the damage caused by these events and speed recovery,” Parks said.
Nebraska chiropractor Ben Tapper, whose public questioning of the COVID-19 vaccines led the Center for Countering Digital Hate to add him — as well as figures like Kennedy — to its “Disinformation Dozen” list of the 12 “leading online anti-vaxxers” in 2021, also welcomed the announcement.
“This news feels like a long-overdue crack in the dam,” Tapper said. “For decades, we’ve been shouting on the rooftops — parents, researchers and victims alike — about the real harm these shots can cause, only to be dismissed as conspiracy nuts or told the science is ‘settled.’”
Tapper said that data on vaccine injuries has long been available — but ignored.
“If you know where to look, the data’s been there: VAERS reports, court payouts from the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program and countless studies buried or ignored by the mainstream. Now, they can’t pretend it’s not happening anymore.”
VAERS — the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System — is a government-run database of vaccine injury reports. Since the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccines, reports of vaccine-related injuries and deaths submitted to VAERS have significantly increased, while some have accused the government of undercounting reports.
“Vaccine injuries are real,” said Dr. Joel Wallskog, co-chair of React19, an advocacy group for vaccine injury victims. “COVID-19 vaccine injuries are real. There have been more adverse events in VAERS with the COVID-19 vaccines than all other vaccines combined.”
Wallskog added:
“The time has come for our country to stop the polarizing rhetoric about vaccine injuries. Creating a sub-agency to evaluate these injuries in a scientific manner — and not political — has the potential to help thousands, perhaps millions of people.”
Health freedom advocate Sayer Ji, co-founder of Stand for Health Freedom, called Kennedy’s announcement “an admission that the system has failed — and gravely.”
“That HHS departments were selling patient data and operating in silos reveals a cartel, not a public health institution. This is not reform — it’s rupture. And it opens the door to a new era of truth, accountability, and bodily sovereignty,” Ji said.
Lyons-Weiler suggested that critical data about vaccine injuries may have been overlooked as a result of the lack of communication within HHS.
“Critical safety signals may have been buried — not necessarily through conspiracy, but through a disjointed, profit-driven and overly bureaucratic system that prioritized internal control and proprietary access over transparency, accountability, and science,” Lyons-Weiler said.
Kennedy inherited an ‘incomprehensible’ organizational structure at HHS
During Thursday’s interview with Cuomo, Kennedy also addressed criticism over staff reductions at HHS. Kennedy said HHS “is the biggest agency in government, twice the size of the Pentagon” and that the cuts will not affect the agency’s focus on public health.
“We’re not going to cut services. We’re not going to cut Medicaid, we’re not going to cut Medicare. We’re going to continue. We’re going to provide services, but more efficiently,” Kennedy said.
When he took over as HHS secretary, Kennedy said he inherited a department with an “incomprehensible” organizational structure and with “no chain of command, where people [were] operating in all these different silos and fiefdoms.”
“What we’re trying to do now is to streamline the agency, to eliminate the redundancies and to focus the mission so that everybody who is at HHS is going to wake up every morning and say, ‘What am I going to do today to Make America Healthy Again?”
Kennedy also discussed the recently launched “Operation Stork Speed,” which will “improve our capacity to have good, nutritious baby formula for the American public that doesn’t have heavy metals or other poisons in it,” and HHS efforts to eliminate toxic dyes from the food supply.
“We’ve met with the major food processors and told them we want chemical dyes out of all of our foods,” Kennedy said.
Kennedy added that HHS is reforming the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to stop subsidizing the purchase of unhealthy products.
“We’re reforming every part of the agency to make sure that our food supply is good and that we have the healthiest kids in the world, which we had when I was a kid,” Kennedy said.

The Supreme Court of North Carolina ruled that the federal Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act does not preempt state law requiring parental consent for vaccination. However, in agreement with two lower courts, the court rejected the plaintiff’s battery claim, finding that the PREP Act does preempt injury claims.
A lawsuit filed by the mother of a 14-year-old son given a COVID-19 vaccine at school without consent can proceed, the Supreme Court of North Carolina ruled late last week.
The ruling opens the door for parents to sue schools and health clinics over the administration of COVID-19 vaccines.
Emily Happel sued the Guilford County Board of Education and the Old North State Medical Society in August 2022 on behalf of her son, Tanner Smith, alleging battery and violation of state and federal constitutional provisions.
North Carolina’s Chief Justice Paul Newby ruled the case can proceed because the federal Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act does not preempt state law requiring parental consent for vaccination.
However, in agreement with two lower courts, Newby rejected Happel’s battery claim, finding that the PREP Act preempts injury under tort law.
The case will now return to the North Carolina Court of Appeals to address questions relating to state law and the state Constitution.
‘Greatest intrusions on civil liberties in the peacetime history of this country’
Writing for the majority, Newby said that during the COVID-19 pandemic, “we may have experienced the greatest intrusions on civil liberties in the peacetime history of this country.” He said the case addressed the “right of a competent person to refuse forced, nonmandatory medical treatment.”
Newby wrote: “We agree that the state constitution protects a parent’s right to control her child’s upbringing, including her right to make medical decisions on her child’s behalf.”
Two of the court’s associate justices, Tamara Barringer and Philip Berger Jr., wrote a concurring agreement stating that they wanted the ruling to go further in rolling back the PREP Act’s immunity shield.
In her dissent, Associate Justice Allison Riggs said the language of the PREP Act and the congressional intent in drafting the law was “clear and obvious.” However, Riggs acknowledged that the North Carolina state Constitution protects parental rights and rights to bodily integrity and questioned the PREP Act itself.
“Because I find both the PREP Act and constitutional analyses fundamentally unsound, I respectfully dissent,” Riggs wrote.
Steven Walker, the plaintiffs’ attorney, said he is “very pleased” with the ruling.
“While we would have, of course, loved to see the battery claim reinstated as well, we believe that the Court decision was very favorable … and have no real complaints,” Walker said.
Addressing the PREP Act’s liability shield, Walker said the act “has a purpose, and that purpose is to provide immunity protections in situations when it might be difficult to determine the safety of a countermeasure during a time of crisis.”
However, the PREP Act “was never intended to allow the government to trample on the clear constitutional rights of its citizens,” Walker said.
He said the ruling is “important even outside the issue of the PREP Act in that the Court gave its clearest explanation to date concerning the rights of parents to make medical decisions for their children under the North Carolina constitution.”
Children’s Health Defense (CHD) supported the lawsuit, filing an amicus brief on behalf of the plaintiffs last year. The brief argued that the lower courts erred in their interpretation of the PREP Act, stating:
“The lower courts wrongly interpreted PREP as nullifying the North Carolina common, statutory, and constitutional law that would otherwise govern those activities and provide a basis for relief to the Plaintiffs, including laws concerning battery, parental rights, bodily autonomy, and informed consent.”
An amicus brief, a term derived from the Latin phrase “amicus curie,” meaning “friend of the court,” is filed by non-parties to a case to provide information that has a bearing on the issues and assist the court in reaching a decision.
CHD General Counsel Kim Mack Rosenberg, said, “While this is a very important victory, it is nonetheless narrow.” She said the case “underscores the importance of continuing to fight for the recognition and application of fundamental rights to bodily integrity and freedom from unwanted medical interventions.”
Ray Flores, senior outside counsel for CHD, said the ruling “recognized the fine line between the PREP Act’s protection for loss from vaccine injury and parental rights under a state Constitution.”
“North Carolina is unique among states since written permission from a parent or legal guardian is required before a healthcare provider may administer an unlicensed vaccine,” Flores said. “Without this parental consent law in place, the outcome would have been much different.”
The law in question, N.C. General Statutes Section 90-21.5(a1), states:
“Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, a health care provider shall obtain written consent from a parent or legal guardian prior to administering any vaccine that has been granted emergency use authorization and is not yet fully approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration to an individual under 18 years of age.”
Court found school ‘forcibly vaccinated’ Smith
The case stems from an August 2021 outbreak of COVID-19 among some players on Western Guilford High School’s football team, where Smith was a member. Guilford County Schools sent a letter to his mother and stepfather informing them that team activities were suspended until players were tested or medically cleared.
According to the letter, the school district had set up a COVID-19 testing site, run by Old North State Medical Society. However, Smith and his family were not informed that the site also operated as a COVID-19 vaccination clinic.
When Smith arrived at the site, workers gave him a form to complete which he believed was related to the COVID-19 test. However, clinic workers also wanted to vaccinate Smith and unsuccessfully attempted to contact his mother to obtain consent.
Smith didn’t want to be vaccinated and didn’t have a signed consent form. Clinic workers did not attempt to contact Smith’s stepfather, who was waiting in the parking lot.
Instead, one of the clinic workers instructed another to “give it to him anyway” and, despite his objections, Smith was injected with a dose of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, which at the time was available only under emergency use authorization (EUA). The vaccine’s EUA status places it under the purview of the PREP Act.
“Medical workers affiliated with a public school forcibly vaccinated a fourteen-year-old boy despite knowing they lacked consent from both the child and his mother,” the ruling stated.
In February 2023, a lower court dismissed the lawsuit, citing the immunity provided by the PREP Act. In March 2024, the North Carolina Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s dismissal of the lawsuit, leading the plaintiffs to file an appeal with the Supreme Court of North Carolina in April 2024.
The lower courts held that the PREP Act preempted state laws, including the statute requiring parental consent to administer a vaccine to a minor.
Earlier this month, the Maine Supreme Judicial Court upheld a lower court ruling that school medical staff who gave a COVID-19 vaccine to a minor without obtaining parental consent were protected by the PREP Act and cannot be held liable.
That ruling came after the U.S. Supreme Court refused to review a lower court’s ruling in a similar lawsuit in Vermont, where a school gave a COVID-19 vaccine to a 6-year-old boy, despite his and his parents’ objections. Last year, the Vermont Supreme Court ruled that the PREP Act shielded school officials from liability.
In January, the outgoing Biden administration extended the PREP Act’s liability shield for COVID-19 vaccines until 2029.

Aaron Gunn just released part 3 of his expose into the fentanyl trade in Canada. Eby and Trudeau factor heavily in his implication that we are a narco-state.
OK, no more downers for a while! But with an election coming, this is a timely and important release.

This outcome is a STUNNER.
(Hearing Officer) Renwick ruled that Detective Grus’ efforts undermined public trust, claiming a “reasonable person” would balk at such inquiries into officials.
The Canadian system leaves me speechless, once again.

Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus has been found guilty of discreditable conduct after a lengthy hearing, in a shocking but to be expected verdict.
Grus, a diligent detective renowned for her investigative prowess, was serving in the Sexual Assault and Child Abuse unit when she was charged with discreditable conduct for accessing police records in what was coined an “unauthorized” investigation into suspicious infant deaths following the 2021 COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
Her probe ultimately leaned on a bombshell piece of evidence: Pfizer’s own trial data revealing a staggering 97% infant fatality rate — yet instead of heeding her concerns, the system slammed her for daring to ask questions.
Hearing Officer Chris Renwick, a retired superintendent, called the hearing a mess of “bickers, insults, and objections,” dismissing evidence like Pfizer’s damning data as “irrelevant” in his decision.
He confined his ruling to the narrow charge, sidestepping Grus’ claims of political motives and police misconduct. “It’s outside my scope,” Renwick insisted, refusing to touch the vaccine scandal or Ottawa Police’s alleged leaks and cover-ups.
Grus’ supporters argue her record access was her duty as a diligent investigator, especially with incomplete case files or instances where new detectives were overseeing complex cases.
Renwick confirmed that Grus did attempt to raise her concerns with the COVID handling and novel modified RNA injection roll out up the chain of command — emailing research to colleagues and executives — only to be branded a meddler with a “personal interest.”
Renwick ruled her efforts undermined public trust, claiming a “reasonable person” would balk at such inquiries into officials, yet this seems like a dodge to many given Pfizer’s repeated misrepresentations of their data, some only released through court order, and a track record of fraud and misconduct.
Grus sought to express concern around this, but the system crushed her.
Her lawyer, Bath Sheba van den Berg, blasted the decision, saying it “sends a message that public officials are above the law.”
Pfizer’s history as a convicted felon, with a $2.3 billion (USD) healthcare fraud settlement for false marketing, cannot be overlooked. Meanwhile, a newly published peer-reviewed paper supports Grus, exposing widespread discrimination against vaccine skeptics and calling for judicial investigations into these serious concerns.

Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) handed out $30.8 million in bonuses in 2024, according to government records obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.
This brings total CMHC bonuses to $132 million since 2020, despite ongoing affordability challenges in the housing market.
“Why are Canada’s housing bureaucrats showering themselves with bonuses when countless Canadians can’t afford homes?” said Franco Terrazzano, Federal Director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.
“Canadians need more homes, not more highly paid pencil pushers rubberstamping bonuses for each other.”
The records show that 2,398 CMHC employees — 91% of its workforce — received bonuses last year, averaging $12,865 each. Meanwhile, 12 CMHC executives collected a total of $1 million in bonuses, with an average payout of $83,859.
In addition to the bonuses, the CMHC issued 2,190 pay raises in 2024, costing taxpayers $9.3 million. No employees received pay cuts, according to the records.
The agency has repeatedly stated its mission is to improve housing affordability, but the Royal Bank of Canada described 2024 as the “toughest time ever to afford a home.”
A poll conducted by Ipsos last year found that 72% of Canadians who do not own a home have “given up on ever owning” one, while 80% believe homeownership is now “only for the rich.”
The Canadian Real Estate Association forecasts that home prices will increase by 4.7% in 2025, bringing the average price to $722,221.
“The CMHC’s c-suite deserve pink slips more than huge bonuses,” said Terrazzano. “The federal government must stop rewarding failure with taxpayer-funded bonuses.”
Since 2015, Ottawa has awarded $1.5 billion in bonuses, despite a report from the Parliamentary Budget Officer showing that less than 50% of performance targets are consistently met each year.
