A district court has ruled that Matthew Warman, a former student at Mount St. Joseph University, can sue campus police for violating his Fourth Amendment rights after he was detained for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine on religious grounds.
Warman alleged that he was subjected to harassment, including derogatory comments from police officers, when he was forcibly detained for an hour at the campus security office.
The Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals supported Warman's claim of a plausible Fourth Amendment violation despite dismissing most of his other claims, including those related to religious discrimination.

Warman, who is Catholic, objected to the vaccine on religious grounds, but was unable to receive an exemption. He was enrolled in the graduate nursing program at the Catholic university in Ohio. He is a Marine veteran who suffers from PTSD and brain injuries.
Warman, a former Marine, received several emails and phone calls from the campus security initially, and was detained and “berated” when he arrived at the security office.
According to court documents MSJU police officer Norb Koopman and campus police Chief Kevin Koo, defendants in the case, told Warman he was a “f***ing idiot” in need of “a new religion,” and that he should “grow the f*** up and get the damn shot.” They also told him that the shot did not violate his Catholic beliefs. During the meeting, the officers “also handed him Veterans Administration paperwork and ‘told him to fill it out in order to resign from the [university],’” according to the ruling.

Ups, Downs and Arounds go about be they good, bad or indifferent.
One screaming warning about the Covid shot was the number of people with no technical or medical knowledge using Nazi intimidation tactics to force others to take a shot of unproven treatment into their bodies. It didn’t help that I had zero trust of the CDC and their revolving door jobs with pharm and because there were billions of dollars on the table. For that much money certain types would push arsenic shots without a thought beyond their bank accounts. Any sane deliberation was shot to hell by the crazies.

Geez, do they only hire folks whose names start with Koo?
the first GIGANTIC red flag that went up from me was when the CDC blatantly lied that the covid jab never leaves the injection site! ... after that, i didn’t believe a word they said ...
The Wuhan Flu panic caused huge damage to this country. But then that was the plan all along at Rat Party Headquarters,their goal being to bring the economy to its knees and blame Trump.
After the pope swallowed the poison, a little pinch of insense to save his own life, and 30 boosters , every screwball catholic puffed out his chest, burned his own pinch, and became a church nazi. Judge must be such a catholic too.
Many did not. This man is one. An army if One; Christ.
More proof universities shouldn’t be running police departments. Hiring and supervising police is a government function which should be controlled be elected officials, not unelected bureaucrats. What happens in these situations is that the police start using criminal law, and arrest power to enforce administrative rules and regulations. It’s predictable. Of course, Penn State, Ohio State, Michigan State and other universities have all had problems with police covering up crimes by university staff. It’s time to end this nonsense. Universities only need security guards who can be deputized when needed to deal with unrest. The campus rent-a-cop system needs to go along with the other bad things that came from the Vietnam War.
Was the shot mandated by the university ?
Campus gestapo could justifiably have met with lethal force.
We knew the vaccine would not stop the spread of Covid yet they released the jackboots for political reasons.
Some schools related to medicine could require it.
I learned more about how the Holocaust happened simply by being alive during Covid than I ever did from every book I've read for half a century prior.
>>More proof universities shouldn’t be running police departments.
I feel the same way about government school systems. They like running their own PDs. If they need LEOs on site, they should be allowed only if under the command of the Constitutionally elected county sheriff. There are too many cases of school system run PDs sweeping crimes under the rug because the crimes reflect poorly on the school system.
If you need LEOs on site, have them through the sheriff’s office as an additional check and balance.
Another current screaming warning is the number of people with technical and medical knowledge still using intimidation tactics to entice or force others to take a shot of proven unsafe and ineffective treatment into their bodies.
They do.
It does not help.
As I found out the covid shot was a placebo and did no good or protected any one. I took three shots and got covid and it damaged some of my organs anyway. :-(
I think every university in the nation mandated the shots.
My grandson was able to get a waiver because of the adverse reaction I had.
