Mainstream Media's Response to the Stephan Evidence Release: "Thread Crapping"

5/29/2019

3 Comments

 
Last Saturday began with a bang.  The public release of numerous exculpatory documents pertaining to the Death of Ezekiel Stephan spread quickly across Canada.  Over the course of a week thousands of dollars in donations and over 1200 positive comments were posted to social media pages related to the Stephans. 

Within the first 4 days of the Campaign some 43,000 views on a single post were charted.  
"We released consult notes that showed that Doctors at ACH were aware that there was no meningitis at the time the RCMP were interviewing Eziekiel's mother.  I think there were two people out of almost 60,000 views who said negative things."
On day 5 our views skyrocketed by about 22,000 views.  Naturally we wondered what was driving the views over such a short amount of time.   

​That's when we found this.

Notes from a conversation with an Alberta children's Hospital Doctor showed that medical staff were aware that Ezekiel did not have an infection or meningitis. This conversation took place at the same time that RCMP were interviewing Ezekiel's mother.
Rather than report on the documents being released, Global News fabricated a story about Sly Anti-Vaxxers,

They listed the Stephans in the article as an example of Sly Anti-Vaxxers.  Attempted to relate the Stephan's posts to vaccinations, tried to shut down the Stephan's post for donations, and then noted that the Stephan's post had nothing to do with Vaccinations.  

David Stephan's brother Bradford Stephan was taking his turn monitoring the page "They sent thousands of people to our page.  We now have about 15 negative comments on the one post and 3 people who are actively saying mean things," said Stephan  

The vast majority of posts, comments and messages are entirely positive toward the Stephans or are showing genuine disgust in the Alberta Governments lack of ethics.

We would like to thank Global News for spreading the word by sending their trusting viewers onto our page.  We are sorry for your loss, it was not our intention to have any part in exposing the hard working employees of Global News to further financial hardships.

Newly acquired medical records in Stephan case show that the CT scan ruled out meningitis in the Ezekiel Stephan case.

The following progress note was turned over to the Stephans after 6 years of fighting for medical records.  What's special about this medical record?  Find the numbers on the document to see the relevance.
Picture
  1. The highlighted conversation is date stamped @ March 15 2012 at 00:30 in the morning.  This is the exact date and time that Ezekiel Stephan's mother was being questioned by RCMP.
  2. This is Dr. Aoife O'Carroll.  At the time she was a resident Doctor at the Alberta Children's Hospital.  Her training and now current designation is in Pediatric Neurology.  
  3. She was acting on behalf of Dr. Catherine Ross.  Dr. Ross is the Doctor who initiated police action against the Stephans for the meningitis death of their son.  She has been involved in a number of questionable police investigations against parents and in one case gave a large uncharted bolus of saline to a small child. Forensic pathologist Anny Sauvageau testified a saline overdose was the most likely cause of young John Wyatt Clark's death.   The parents  of John Wyatt are now facing up to 25 years in prison for his death and Dr. Ross is still practicing at the Alberta Children's Hospital.
  4. Cathy Ross was requesting a bed side consult.  No recorded calls of digital records would be produced as a result of the conversation.
  5. Notes indicate that the Doctors were aware that there was no objective evidence of an infection that would have been present if Ezekiel had a severe lung or septic infection at that time.  Bacterial Meningitis would have required an infection that was severe and septic.
  6. Doctors were aware that the CT scan ruled out meningitis.  This was something that the radiologist report indicated and something that Dr. Shauna Burkholder of the Alberta Children's Hospital repeatedly contradicted during testimony in the last trial.
Summary:  Doctors who called the police over the meningitis death of Ezekiel Stephan were aware that he did not have an infection or meningitis at the time that RCMP were questioning Ezekiel's mother in a room down the hall. 

​What is going on at the Alberta Children's Hospital?  How often are they hiding the medical malpractice deaths of children by having parents charged and families torn apart?

Associate Chief Justice J.D. Rooke's refusal to allow his own recusal application to be filed or heard is an unmistakable sign for the need to police the actions of The Alberta Court of Queen's Bench.

"... you can’t sue a judge because they’re immune from suit for things that they do in the course of their duties." 
       ~Associate Chief Justice J.D. Rooke Jan 18th 2019
​Calgary Court Center
May 28th 2019 Justice J.D. Rooke refused to allow a recusal application against himself to even be filed in the Alberta Court of Queen's Bench.  This, just one week before the beginning of the Stephan trial, where he will remain as the CMJ and be able to continue to suppress evidence of state wrongdoing.

"If it can't be even filed, you can't appeal it.  There is no official record to work from.  Justice Rooke is obstructing Justice in everyway he can and he thinks he's immune,"  said Stephan during a conference call with a member of his investigative team and family members.

During his meeting with investigators and family David indicated that he has tried to work with Justice Rooke. "I've been polite and courteous and have done everything asked or ordered.  But I have a wife and children who need protection from this man who has declared he will be the evidentiary gatekeeper through the trial.  There is no doubt in my mind that he intends to continue assisting in the coverup that took place 7 years ago.  He intends to hurt my wife and children and he is doing everything he can to prevent a fair trial" 

Recusal applications are heard before and during trials when a litigant determines that they have a reason to believe a Judge has a conflict of interest or bias that would affect the outcome of the case.  In this case Justice Rooke has determined he will remain involved in the case throughout the trial as Case Management Judge over Voir Dires.  Voir Dires would usually fall to the Trial Judge.

Rejected Court Documents show clear examples of Breach of Trust where ACJ Rooke was abusive, ruled in opposition to Supreme Court Case law and is clearly identified to have bias against human rights activists who have been flagged by the government.

After reading the following document you will have no doubt as to why Judge Rooke would refuse to allow this document to become a part of the Court record.


Rooke's crusade against self litigants spills into the Stephan trial.

January 18, 2019 Transcripts highlight, clear abuses of Judicial authority entrusted to Justice Rooke in the following ways:
  • Refusal to allow the Stephan's to respond after Crown Submissions.
  • Arguing with the Crown and Stephans that he did not have jurisdiction to award costs.
  • Repeatedly asking the Crown for help and getting upset when they had nothing to offer.
  • A declaration of immunity from relief sought by victims seeking assistance from the Courts for Charter breaches committed by Justices.
  • Refusal to weigh any evidence that was damaging to the State.
  • A declaration that he would not tell the Stephans how to have their evidence heard.
  • Conflating of Civil and Criminal Law so as to avoid awarding of costs.
  • An offer to the Crown to compel the Stephan's to pay costs for the Stephans application for relief (so that they could afford legal representation in the upcoming criminal trial).

A letter written to the Stephan's show's ACJ Rooke's clear intention to remain in control of Evidentiary Voir Dires during the trial.

Associate Chief Justice J.D. Rooke refuses to issue subpoenas for TEN MATERIAL WITNESSES in the Ezekiel Stephan case.

5/27/2019

With less than 1 week until the Stephan trial. New information is being released by family members of the Stephans.  ACJ J.D. Rooke is shown in communications to have denied Subpoenas for ten key material witnesses. 

Justice Rooke ruled on the 25th of February to dismiss all of the Stephans existing subpoenas.  In a landmark ruling he determined that because the Stephans are self-represented, they are required to file an affidavit with the Court to provide justification / evidence to why every witness should be allowed.

The most notable witness denied is one of Ezekiel Stephan's attending physicians.  Dr.  Jamie Blackwood was one of the attending physicians at the Alberta Children's Hospital.   She is sought after for her role in obtaining organ donation approval for Ezekiel Stephan.

Medical notes indicated that organ donation would not be possible for a child suffering with sepsis.  Especially one who had died of meningitis.

Organ Donation Approved for Ezekiel Stephan

Septic infection be Damned!  Lets approve organ donation and put these infected organs into other kids! 

Most of us probably cringed when we read the line above.  Let's think it through.  Could you trust a hospital that would so recklessly put your child's life at risk by sewing into them an organ that was infected with meningitis causing bacteria?  Would Doctors be foolish enough to transplant an organ into another child if there was even a chance of the organ passing along an infection of this severity?

Unfortunately this is an argument you will not hear during the trial as subpoenas for all material witnesses involved in organ donation approval were denied by Associate Chief Justice John D. Rooke.  Every single one.

ACJ Rooke has placed a Sealing Order on the affidavit he required of the Stephans to acquire subpoenas and his response  so you won't see that here either.

"It wasn't Meningitis!"  On the Eve of a June 3rd Alberta Trial the Stephans make a plea for aid from fellow Canadians

5/22/2019

New documents and files obtained by the Stephans last week painted a grim picture of what happened to their son during his final days.

"Zero objective Evidence of an infection. Initial suspected diagnosis was Meningitis but the CT scan ruled it out"
                    
~ Dr. Aoife O'Carroll Pediatric Neurologist / Mar 15 2012 

​
As one of the Key investigators on the Stephan File I ask that you forgive my blunt language as I summarize in the simplest of terms the Stephan case.  It's more disturbing than you might ever imagine in a free and democratic society.  It goes something like this:
  1. Medical records: 18 month old child appears to have ingested toxic levels of potassium.  Swallowing, breathing and Cardiac functions all begin to fail.
  2. Parents call 911
  3. Every step of the child's medical care is fumbled.  Equipment shortages resulted in Ezekiel going over 8 minutes without oxygen.  The child dies
  4. Doctors and medical service providers cover it up by trashing the records in three hospitals and two server sets. They go with the diagnosis the parents suggested it might be, even though the child did not have any actual symptoms of Meningitis.
  5. Doctors send the boy to be chopped up at the medical examiners office where the ME is instructed to find meningitis.  He does this by having his colleague at the lab adjust a few results, but they forget to trash the originals.
  6. Police take advantage of the situation in spite of objections by hospital staff and use the death of a child to take out a human rights activist (the Father).
  7. With the support of the Superior Court of Alberta, the Crown prosecutors office successfully achieves a wrongful conviction.  The Court at this time was under the Direction and Control of Justice J.D. Rooke.
  8. The Supreme Court of Canada overturns the Conviction.  The Crown moves to retry the parents.  The medical examiner flees the country (he also refuses to return to Canada for the next trial).  The lead RCMP investigator takes a quick retirement (the RCMP detachment is also white washed and restaffed).
  9. The activist father exposes what happened in the last trial and Justice J.D. Rooke assigns himself over the Stephan case.  He then systematically shuts down every one of the defence applications, demands to see key evidence before the trial (curiously after which the crown appears to respond to evidence provided only to J.D. Rooke that is sealed), refuses to allow them to subpoena a large number of key witnesses, and refuses to award the Stephans costs from the previously wrongful conviction that they need to hire legal counsel.  
  10.  On June 3rd 2019 the trial is scheduled to run where the Crown has indicated that they intend to place pictures of the Stephan's dissected child on a big screen in front of them and require them to argue without the assistance of legal counsel over what took place.  The Stephan's have retained counsel but the Crown is opposing the delay required for him to attend during their trial.  The Crown has now hired numerous witnesses as medical experts who were intimately involved in Ezekiel's care and who have obtained legal counsel in the face of the civil suite that is being filed against them.  

Is this the Canada you know?  Let's take a deeper look.
Picture
The Stephans acquired a number of records that were secondary to the primary chart and appear to have been unaffected by the AHS purge of their son's medical records and documents.   

For 6 long years the Stephans have fought for an accurate copy of their son's medical records.   For six long years they have been almost entirely disappointed.  To date there has been a wrongful conviction, an appeal and a Supreme Court reversal of the conviction, costing the Stephans over $1,000,000.00, the tax payers even more.  They have had their names destroyed by the main stream media and are now homeless with their 4 children and have spent the last year moving from one place to another.  They have been made to rely on the kindness of other Canadians who are willing to take them in.
​
April of 2019 was a land mark hearing that showed that at least 176 medical records had either been removed from the Alberta Netcare system along with two recorded RAAPID calls from an Ontario Server set and virtually all charts from their sons stay at the Chinook Regional Hospital in Lethbridge Alberta.  All of the now undiscoverable records dealt with procedures and their residual effects from a 36 hour period of in hospital care.
Picture
"When Alberta Health Services indicated to the Court that they had provided all the records that now exist, we were devastated".  Their own records reference these other records that we are being told are no longer in the possession of AHS.  Where did they go and why were they removed? The Crown is planning to force us to argue over pictures of our son's dissected body without legal assistance.  They are going to force us to look at pictures of our deceased son without having the medical records to defend ourselves.  The Court knows that the records existed and what we are getting from Justice Rooke is "It's not my problem" "
                                                                                                                         ~ David Stephan

Doctors knew Ezekiel did not have Meningitis and they had successfully treated him for potassium toxicity.

Picture
Doctor Sandy Cunningham from the Cardston Alberta Hospital successfully treated Ezekiel for the high potassium found in the lab results.  Ezekiel's blood pressure quickly normalized and he began to breath on his own within 30 minutes of being treated with Calcium Chloride.  

It was after after Ezekiel began breathing on his own that things took a turn for the worse.  Doctors testified that there was worry over Ezekiel possibly pulling out his breathing and NG tubes.  A drug called Roccuronium Bromide was administered and he fell into a deep and prolonged Cardiac Arrest that would result in severe brain damage and ultimately brain death. (Roccuronium is known to cause cardiac arrhythmias and if contraindicated for patients with electrolyte imbalances)
During transport to the Lethbridge Regional Hospital doctors received a report that Ezekiel had a potassium level of 6.4.  This number is concerning because medical staff had already watered down his blood supply with over 500 Ml of Saline before blood was drawn for the test.  a level of 4 is normal, 6.4 is alarming. The estimated level of 10 on arrival, if not treated would have been fatal.  It would have stopped his Heart, lungs and caused paralysis.
Picture
Dr. Sandy Cunningham
Doctors from the Alberta Children's hospital would point the blame squarely at Dr. Sandy Cunningham for lowering Ezekiel's Epinephrine in response to his stabilized blood pressure.  Records would show that after placing Ezekiel into the air ambulance, Alberta Children's Hospital staff would triple the dose of Roccuronium being administered to Ezekiel.
Picture
Notes taken by Dr. Naminder Sandhu. This is a section of the STARS transport log when the blame for the second cardiac arrest was placed on the reduction of Epinephrine ordered by Doctor Sandy Cunningham.

Crown Prosecutors knew about the cause of Ezekiel's  Cardiac Arrest

Of all that took place during the prosecution of the parents of Ezekiel, one thing stands out as the most egregious.  There is clear evidence that Crown Prosecutors knew everything and intentionally avoided exculpatory evidence.  One such example was when Crown Prosecutor Clayton Giles directed Dr. Sandy Cunningham to not speak to the issues surrounding potassium.  In the entire 3500 page volume of trial transcripts from the previous trial, there was only two references to potassium.  The following statement was one.  This clear and intentional avoidance of the obvious medical condition can only be seen as collusion.  
Picture
Crown Prosecutor Clayton Giles questioning Dr. Sandy Cunningham and directing him to steer clear of the topic of potassium.
My fellow Canadians, we need your assistance.  The Stephan's have four children who they love and who love them.  After 6 years of dealing with Alberta's broken Judicial system they are in no way naive enough to believe that the Alberta Courts will allow a fair trial or even one that will allow the truth to make it on the record.  
We need people to attend this trial, to talk about whats going on in Alberta with their friends and Neighbors and to call your local politicians and demand change.  If Judges like J.D. Rooke and Crown Prosecutors like Britta Kristensen are allowed to continue to push agendas and weaponize our courts against parents and their families, we will all lose.  If this case is successful, it will lead to forced medical fads being forced on our children.  As parents it is our right to act in our children's best interests.

​Please assist us by providing funding for medical experts to help us bring the truth to light and keep the Stephan Family together.

This Video shows what happens when medical fads are pushed on our children with little or no science to support them.  I hope you enjoy watching one of David Stephan's first video compilations on the topic.
