In examining notes taken of their conversations with the victim’s mother, I was taken aback by how contemptuous they are of her. They talk down to her, as if she were the perpetrator, not the mother of the victim of this monstrous attack.
It is outrageous. And it gets worse. The supposedly seven-year-old rapist who put his penis in the girl’s mouth, urinated on her and in her mouth, and who reportedly owned the blue pocket knife that he used to threaten her, was never even removed from his home. That family still lives next door to the victim. For the longest time, the attacker wasn’t even limited in his access to the community’s children; now he must be supervised by someone 14 years old or older. When they stipulated this, the court had to have been aware that the boy who videotaped the rape was 14. This a gross insult against this victimized family — and a direct result of a judge’s decision.
Meanwhile, the neighbor of the family who caught the perpetrators in the act, an elderly woman known to all as “Grandma Jo,” has been living in constant terror since she first happened upon the grisly scene. She has been stalked by the Iraqi family of the seven-year-old attacker. Her apartment is back-to-back with theirs; they peer into her windows and pace back and forth in front of her apartment in a clearly menacing manner.

I know it is instinctual and hard not to do, but please, assault victims of any kind should not wash at all. It's evidence needed to convict perps.
Has anyone emailed this story to the Trump campaign?
If the police are involved it is possible the records are restricted.
Under normal circumstances, hospitals are getting more resistant to release records to patients for fear of lawsuits. It’s wrong, but it’s happening.
If you want a copy to take home you need to fill out HIPPA release forms.
Nor should hospitals release records. If I had a five year old daughter who was raped, the last thing I’d want is the hospital releasing the damn records.
The story was wrong to emphasize the medical records issue. Such records are governed by strict privacy rules (maybe even too strict), and Geller should know that. (About ten years ago I was involved in a bicycle accident, and was taken to a local hospital by the aid car. They couldn’t even tell my FAMILY what hospital I was sent to, until someone gave my strong-willed sister a HINT about where I was. It’s crazy sometimes, and its entirely separate from issues concerning Muslims.)
I’ve never had to sign a release to get my own records, my son’s records (when he was a minor), or my husband’s records (now that I’m his caregiver). I don’t doubt that some facilities require that, but it’s never been required of me or mine.
I have to authorize release of records to anyone else, even different doctors, but that authorization doesn’t always have to be in writing. I can usually call one doctor, and have them transfer records to another doctor.
You wouldn’t want the hospital to release your five year old daughter’s records to you? Really?
I presume you were an adult when that happened?
That’s much different than an underage child.
Yes, I was an adult, and for the life of me I could not see the rationale for refusing to tell my own family (adult children/sister/mother) what hospital I was taken to. That isn’t even really a “medical record,” just information about where you’ve been taken. It was insane.
I don’t doubt you at all, but that’s not HIPAA.
I was once told by a receptionist that I couldn’t have copies of my records, because of HIPAA. She was wrong. I had to go over her head, but I did get my records. Just because someone claims HIPAA says something, doesn’t make it so.
An adult has to formally release their medical information. It can then be released to anyone you designate.
They should have told you that.
sorry, impossible. LGBTQIA as NORML>.......
Methinks they need a good lawyer.....
“sorry, impossible. LGBTQIA as NORML>.......”
Well, it’s clear from her “pronouncements” that she’s just Obola’s -itch!
The people of this town need to march with torches and pitchforks and drive out the traitors, and close down the Chobani plant
Any parent or guardian has full, legal access.
I don’t know that, all I can tell you is I’m HIPAA compliant since I work IT for a medical service provider. A signed ROI is all that’s needed unless I’d speculate a court order is preventing the release?
I had a concussion, a cracked rib, a separated shoulder, and was heavily sedated. Under those circumstances, I see no rationale at all for them not telling my family which hospital I had been taken to.
