The Livingston County Sheriff Department has filed a criminal complaint against me related to the Twitter posts I made this week about the nurses who publicly spread health misinformation. (THREAD)
I was contacted by a sheriff’s deputy this afternoon to notify of the charges pursuant to this Michigan statute: legislature.mi.gov/(S(oyqxnnllpev…
I do not yet have a copy of the report so I can’t comment further regarding n the details at this time, but it is a felony if charged and convicted. The case has been forwarded to the Livingston County Prosecutor’s office for review I am told.
The posts I have made about these nurses and about my local chapter of Moms for Liberty pertain to their public activism of their “movement” (their word) made in public social media posts and public government meetings.
At no point have I attempted to contact or encouraged others to contact any of the parties involved. I have not approached any of these folks when in a public setting. I have not shared any private information that was not included in their already public posts.
Frankly I am shocked the LCSD would play a role in this naked attempt to undermine my free speech rights guaranteed by the #FirstAmendment 🇺🇸 and silence dissenters of life threatening public policy measures during a deadly pandemic. Updates to follow!
Here’s Jennifer Smith - leader of @Moms4Liberty Livingston- who threatened the Brighton BOE in person in a public meeting and told them “we’re coming for you, take it as a threat, call the FBI, I don’t care” trying to get ME off Twitter for harassment. That’s rich.
These people expect everyone to give them whatever they want without any sort of pushback. When you enter the public sphere to push for dangerous public health policy, this is the heat you’re going to get. Stay out of the kitchen if you can’t handle it.
Hey Twitter, I’m back. I’d like you to meet Nurse Rebecca Skoczylas, who like Holly Austin also spread misinformation at the Brighton BOE meeting. I’m calling her Nurse E.Coli b/c she’s full of 💩. @stjoes_health I believe she’s on your staff?) (Another 🧵)
Nurse E.Coli’s recent gig is as a “Clinical Documentation Nurse Educator.” - Yet another Nurse teaching future nurses how to spread dangerous misinformation in the midst of a deadly pandemic. Unbelievable!
I looked into this article Skoczylas references from Gainesville parents. I thought as a “Clinical Documentation” expert surely this must be in reference to a serious peer reviewed study. NOPE! It’s basically a Facebook meme 🤦🏻♀️ factcheck.afp.com/http%253A%252F…
