Judicial Notice Statement 3;. The above entitled court is respectfully directed to take (udicial notice that each of the principal actors named as defendants herein, whether bound by the solemn ,ath or affirmation mandated at rticle 90 of the supreme 8aw of the 8and in fact or not, did willfully e.ercise powers belonging to an office of public trust and, by such conduct, manifestly accepted the duties, obligations, and liabilities attendant to a trustee of such *public trust+ powers. 3<. The above entitled court is hereby further respectfully directed to take (udicial notice that it has been undeniably established as a fundamental ma.im of 8aw that the supreme 8aw of the 8and is wholly within the purview of the foundational precepts set forth in the merican Declaration of 0ndependence which makes unmistakably clear that, by operation of 8aw, the primary and superseding duty *obligation+ imposed upon anyone giving e.ercise to public trust powers is to :....secure *make safe+...the rights of 8ife, 8iberty, and the pursuit of !appiness Ewith which all *wo+men are endowed by their #reatorF G which encompass a whole plethora of other more specific rights relevant thereto. 3@. Plaintiffs assert herein that Defendants, acting in concert and in such respective official capacities, not only failed to perform said primary and superseding obligation to Plaintiffs but manifestly acted contrary to said protective reHuirement with willful intent. %aid primary obligation also carries the inherent ancillary duty to prevent such deprivations from occurring or reaching culmination. Plaintiffs further assert herein that Defendants were noticed, at all material times and places, that their conduct was unlawful and in(urious to the secured rights of Plaintiffs and that any defense raised on the basis of :ignorance of the law: or :innocent intent: is undeniably without factual foundation. 37. The above entitled court is hereby further respectfully directed to take

(udicial notice that the spouses of the principal actors named as Defendants herein, whether acting in active or passive capacity, are properly (oined as party defendants hereto pursuant to the long established precepts of coverture, marriage, accessory contract, and division of spoils as well as abundant stare decisis upon the sub(ect*s+ of accessory, tontine wagering, and misprision G all of which are relevant to the intrinsic nature of the instant action now before the eyes of the court. Facts 36. ,n December 2th, 31)3 at appro.imately 2P& Plaintiffs' two year old son , F.#., accidentally burned the tips and tops of both of his feet. /1. F.#.'s parents immediately washed their son's wounds, applied honey *a medically appropriate action+, loosely wrapped his feet, and delivered him to the #oliseum hospital in &acon, $eorgia. /). #oliseum medical staff again washed and wrapped F.#.'s feet recommending F.#. be seen by medical staff at the Doctors !ospital in ugusta, $eorgia. /3. F.#. and his father arrived at the Doctors !ospital in ugusta at around )1>/1P& and were told that F.#. would go into surgery in the morning around 7 & on December ;th, 31)3. //. The surgery would entail wound cleaning, debriding, application of skin grafts, and wrapping. /2. F.#.'s mother and grandfather arrived to the Doctors !ospital later that night. /;. t around 7>/1 & on December <th, 31)3 the surgeon's assistant, -rian

%hirley, entered F.#.'s hospital room to personally inspect F.#.'s wounds. -rian %hirley acHuired parental consent to perform surgery on F.#.. /<. t around this same time Defendant #artie had also entered the hospital room

and asserted that F.#. had not been vaccinated for tetanus and, :would now be now.: /@. Plaintiffs refused to provide informed consent for the tetanus vaccination of

their son to Defendant #artie. /7. Defendant #artie did not personally observe or e.amine F.#.'s in(ured feet. /6. Defendant #artie failed to verify F.#.'s medical condition instead relying on :reports: even though F.#. was within three feet of Defendant #artie. 21. Defendant #artie never demanded any other procedure be performed other than tetanus vaccination. 2). tetanus vaccine is not and can not be, under any circumstance, an

emergency medical intervention. 23. Defendant #artie was frustrated by Plaintiffs steadfast insistence on e.ercising their inalienable right to refuse the demanded tetanus vaccine for their son. 2/. Due to defendant #artie's abusive and bullying demeanor, Plaintiffs made it known to medical staff that Defendant #artie was :fired: insofar as being their son's pediatrician. 22. Defendant #artie became affronted when Plaintiffs :fired: him. 2;. Defendant #artie's wounded pride and frustration with Plaintiffs led him to initiate a series of deceptions and brutal punishments directed at F.#. and his parents *Plaintiffs+. 2<. Defendant #artie, directly assisted by Defendant Donna &asters, ordered that the scheduled wound cleaning and surgery be delayed until Plaintiffs consented to a tetanus vaccine for F.#.. %aid additional surgical delay was appro.imately four hours in duration and had absolutely no medical basis whatsoever. 2@. Defendant #artie intended to punish and did punish Plaintiffs for invoking their inalienable right to refuse his demanded an demonstrably unnecessary medical intervention. 27. Due to Defendant #artie's malicious order to delay medically necessary

debriding and surgery, appro.imately )7 hours had passes since F.#.'s wounds had been cleaned and dressed. 26. ,f paramount importance, in suspected tetanus e.posure cases, is the reHuirement to immediately wash , debride, and wrap the wound to effect an aerobic environment in which tetanus *#lostridium tetani + can not survive or colonize to the point of endangering the patient. ;1. ction consistent with an honest concern about F.#. being e.posed to tetanus

would be the immediate wound cleaning and debriding followed by skin grafts which Defendant #artie delayed an additional 2 hours in order to punish Plaintiffs and without any medical (ustification for doing so. ;). Defendant #artie's ordered IdelayJ ended when F.#. began to cry in discomfort and his parents *Plaintiffs+ became visibly and consistently agitated that their son be seen to immediately. ;3. F.#.'s father asked nurse Cathy Bcks why his son's surgery was being delayed. Durse Bcks indicated that it was due to the :vaccine issue:. ;/. Defendant &asters reported that the delay in surgery was due to another surgery which was more e.igent. !owever, both hospital staff and medical notes indicate that the delay was ordered, with malicious intent, by Defendant #artie. ;2. Defendant #artie ordered F.#.'s surgery to be delayed in order to :encourage: Plaintiffs to consent to vaccinate. ;;. t around )1 & December ;th, 31)3 Plaintiff *redacted father+ met with

Defendant #hris !aga so that Defendant !aga could personally inspect Plaintiff''s *redacted father+ 0D. ;<. Plaintiff *redacted father+ disallowed the copying of his 0D citing that 0D theft is prevalent within medical institutions and that a copy of his 0D would enable or encourage the theft of his 0D.

)1

;@. Plaintiff *redacted father+ allowed Defendant !aga to physically e.amine his *redacted father+ 0D. ;7. Defendant !aga never indicated any concern to Plaintiffs that the 0D had been anything other than authentic. ;6. Plaintiffs were :selfGpay: which prompted Defendant !aga to insist that Plaintiff *redacted father+ apply for &edicaid and sign another admissions document in which no terms and conditions had been struck out. <1. Plaintiff *redacted father+ had previously signed a Doctors !ospital admissions document wherein he **redacted father++ struck out several disagreeable terms and conditions prior to signing. <). During this brief meeting with Defendant !aga, Plaintiff *redacted father+ refused to apply for &edicaid or to sign admissions documents with disagreeable terms and conditions. <3. t around noon on December ;th, 31)3 it is believed that Defendant #artie

collaborated with two "ichmond #ounty DF#% social workers, Defendants 'ane Doe and 'anet Doe, to intimidate, harass, and threaten Plaintiffs. Defendants 'ane Doe and 'anet Doe plainly asserted that Plaintiffs son could be taken into the care and keeping of the Public Trust if Plaintiffs did not provide consent for the tetanus vaccine. Plaintiffs maintained their position of nonGconsent for the tetanus vaccine despite the "ichmond #ounty DF#% agents' hostilities and threats directed toward Plaintiffs. </. Defendant #artie and the hospital staff Defendants, by involving DF#% employees to investigate without emergency medical (ustification, set into motion a course of action he?they knew or reasonably should have known would result in the violation of the Plaintiffs' #onstitutional rights. <2. Defendants #artie's and &aster's hospital notes indicate paranoid ideations to (ustify the inhumane treatment of Plaintiffs. Defendant #artie's notes fail to mention

))

e.culpatory evidence *to negate such imaginings and ideations+ including the obvious fact that Plaintiff *redacted mother+ was breastfeeding F.#. and was accompanied by her father while at the Doctors !ospital. Dr. #artie's reports were demonstrably created in bad faith. <;. Plaintiffs asked Defendant Donna &asters to contact the Doctors !ospital #B,, *Doug =elch+. Defendant &asters indicated that the #B, would be in touch with them :today or tomorrow:. <<. Doctors !ospital #B, Doug =elch was never heard from or seen by Plaintiffs. <@. Then, based on information and belief, Defendant #artie, working in concert with Defendants #hris !aga, 'ames #ole, Donna &asters, and !eyward =ells employed "ichmond #ounty %heriff Deputy =ren to intimidate and interrogate Plaintiffs under the prete.t that an 0D card had been IreportedJ as appearing to have been tampered with or altered. <7. The only person to have seen Plaintiff *redacted father+ 0D prior to Defendant =ren was the Doctors !ospital admissions director Defendant #hris !aga. <6. Defendant #artie's summoning of a Deputy %heriff and the Defendants 'ane and 'anet Doe, further evidences :bad faith: reporting by Defendant #artie in order to impose his will, via state actors, on the Plaintiffs. @1. These several intimidation tactics failed to result in Plaintiffs' consent to vaccinate. @). Bvidence indicates that Defendant #artie then proceeded to consult and plan with &acon #ounty DF#% supervisor, Defendant Caran lbritton, to take custody of not (ust one but all three *according to Defendant #artie's hospital notes+ of Plaintiffs' sons. @3. ,n or around 7P& on December ;th, 31)3 Defendant 'ulie 8ewis entered Plaintiffs' hospital room accompanied by armed guards including Defendant 'immy =ren to announce that F.#. would now be vaccinated. Plaintiffs again refused to consent to the

)3

tetanus vaccination. @/. Defendant 8ewis asserted to the Plaintiffs that the vaccination was court ordered and, as if a state actor, she served the soGcalled court order *B.hibit + to Plaintiffs. @2. Plaintiffs were in absolute shock that events were unfolding as they were. @;. Plaintiffs were sleep deprived in addition to being perpetually, harassed, terrorized, and their concerns ignored by hospital staff and state actors throughout the day. @<. Plaintiffs were completely aware that their rights were being violated at the time they were being violated and noticed *verbally+ Defendants 8ewis, =ren, and others that their *Plaintiffs'+ rights were being violated and their *Defendants+ actions were :wrong:. @@. The court order titled, :,"DB" F," %!B8TB" # "B: *B.hibit + stated , :The medical staff explained the significance of the shots and father refused the shots for the child therefore putting the child's life, possibly, in danger.: @7. The mere possibility of danger does not constitute an emergency or e.igent circumstance that would (ustify the seizure of F.#. or any other human being. @6. t no time did any of the medical staff verbally convey any information,

positive or negative, regarding the tetanus vaccine to the Plaintiffs. 71. Defendant #artie, at no time, provided any information, significant or otherwise about the tetanus to.oid * DT vaccine+. 7). The soGcalled :,"DB" F," %!B8TB" # "B: contained no language to indicate probable cause or that e.igent circumstance e.isted to (ustify the seizure of F.#. %aid order was authorized by Defendant 8isa #oogle "ambo and prepared by Defendant Patrick Bidson. 73. Defendants 8isa "ambo's and Bidson's :,"DB" F," %!B8TB" # "B: was not supported by ,ath or affirmation as is mandated by the Fourth mendment.

)/

7/. Defendant 8isa "ambo, asserting herself to be a 'udge, is e.pressly reHuired at rticle 90 *%upremacy clause+ of the #onstitution to support the Fourth mendment. 72. Defendant 8ewis indicated to Plaintiffs that they may leave the Doctors !ospital without their son or they could stay with F.#. as long as they did not attempt to flee the Doctors !ospital with F.#. 7;. Defendant 8ewis advised Plaintiffs to abandon their son F.#. to her and other hospital staff. 7<. Plaintiffs refused to abandon their in(ured and traumatized son. 7@. Defendants 8ewis and #artie, being a nurse and medical doctor, respectively, knew or should have reasonably known that refusal to vaccinate did not and could not have caused F.#. to be in imminent danger regarding the instant matter. 77. t no time did any of the named Defendants assert to Plaintiffs, by word or

action, that failure to consent to a tetanus vaccine or failure to receive a tetanus vaccine presented an imminent danger or e.igent circumstance regarding F.#.. 76. &edical staff Defendants could not impose their will upon Plaintiffs without armed state actors presenting the threat of armed and lethal force to Plaintiffs. 61. Defendant 8ewis demanded F.#. be taken to another room to be forced vaccinated. 4nder threat of lethal force and by threat of being separated, via force, from their son, Plaintiffs complied, under duress, and proceeded down the hall to what appeared to be a storage room. 6). Defendant Terrell Aelverton prepared to administer the vaccine while Defendant 8ewis and Defendant =ren looked on. 63. Defendant Aelverton became confused by the court order *B.hibit + and left the room for some 3; minutes at which time he returned and in(ected F.#. with two substances> T0$ and DT. These were administered biGlatterly amidst intense screaming and crying from F.#. while Plaintiffs attempted to console their son.

ccording to the manufacturer of the T0$, :Pediatric Use: Safety and

posted near the Plaintiffs' room and at the e.its for the rest of the night and the ne.t day creating a veritable prison for the Plaintiffs. 6;. Plaintiffs' later research indicated that the unwanted and forced medical intervention contained neuroto.ins and ototo.ins none of which were disclosed to Plaintiffs by Defendant #artie or any other of the medical staff.. 6<. F.#. was later diagnosed with a hearing loss and, to this day, is severely delayed in his ability to speak . 6@. ,n December <th, 31)3 at around )P& Plaintiffs son was seized by Defendants location. 67. s Plaintiffs left the !ospital room Plaintiffs observed Defendant &asters lbritton and -arr, armed guards looking on, and taken to an unknown

Defendant 'ames #ole then escorted Plaintiffs and F.#.'s grandfather out of the Doctors !ospital at which time Plaintiffs traveled home without their son and without knowledge of their son's condition or location. s Defendant #ole escorted Plaintiffs

from the Doctors !ospital to the parking lot he indicated that he regretted that this had happened to Plaintiffs and that he felt it was Iwrong.J )1). Defendants' son had never long been without his mother or father and was now deprived of both, deprived of his mother's nourishment in the form of breast milk and emotional support.
