Given that CA has a population of approximately 40,000,000, and that the title mentions 10,000 without power, I’m sure one of the 99.975% of Californians that did not lose power is capable of confirming if you’re willing to finish your question.
The order was signed off on by Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee. The order, which was signed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Trump’s attorneys, says that Trump “shall perform no act to intimidate any person known to him or her to be a codefendant or witness in this case or to otherwise obstruct the administration of justice.”
It also says the “Defendant shall make no direct or indirect threat of any nature against the community or to any property in the community; The above shall include, but are not limited to, posts on social media or reposts of posts made by another individual on social media.”
So…he’s not going to be in jail, despite the continuous witness intimidation he’s already engaged in. I suppose I should be thankful at least it sounds like they are already building in specific orders to avoid intimidation so there’s a chance he could have his bond revoked and be taken into custody.
Fourteen dead babies, I don’t care about her. She’s fucked. But what fucking hospital has 14 dead babies? Are you saying you cant identify a pattern after 4 or 5?
The heads of the hospital should be gutted.
Call that place “The dead baby hospital” because wtf.
She alternated between giving them insulin, injecting air into their bloodstream, and overfeeding them. The babies that recovered most likely did so either because they weren’t in bad shape to begin with, or because they coded while a competent doctor or nurse was on call and able to stabilize them, or because of luck. One of the babies she attempted to kill survived, but has severe cerebral palsy and requires a feeding tube. There’s no definitive way to say that the nurse’s attempts on her life caused her condition, as she was already a preemie and at risk for multiple complications, but I’d say the lack of durability definitely led to at least some lasting damage for some of the babies that recovered.
I’m not a doctor so this is me just trying to piece together info from other sources, but it sounds like overfeeding can cause a lot of issues that premature babies aren’t developed enough to deal with on their own, like severe gas and bloating. Depending on how delicate the baby is, this might lead to a cascade of problems that are difficult to diagnose, treat, and recover from. With babies that underdeveloped, even something as benign as eating too much can become deadly.
But again, not a doctor, and a quick Google search turned up a bunch of complicated articles that don’t really clarify. I just know that it was one of her strategies for worsening the babies’ condition.
Depending on why the infant is in the neonatal unit, specific food can have extremely deleterious effects. Disorders of metabolism are rare, but not as rare as you think, and most are controlled with specific diets. So if she purposely fed the wrong food, and in large amounts, it could absolutely kill certain populations. If an otherwise ‘healthy’ infant, the most likely cause due to overfeeding would be vomiting, and then aspiration of the vomitus. Infants, especially neonates, are very unlikely to be able to protect their airway. Even if a patient is already on the operating table, survival rates of aspirating vomitus is only 50% or so. That’s why you don’t eat/drink before surgery, btw.
Multiple doctors came forward to say that their concerns were ahot down by hospital administrators. They cared more about a bad mark on their record than a someone harming newborns under their watch.
She worked in neo natal. That is already “at risk” births. Premature. Addicts. All sorts of things that are risky to begin with. I’m not justifying anything she or the administration did. However it is to be expected at times in those units. Sounds heartless but my family was in those departments for many years.
Okay but the mortality numbers for her unit pretty clearly and obviously pointed to the fact that something was happening here other than the natural deaths one would expect in a NICU
They said other than when she was working, and before and after she left the number was around or close to 0-2 per year, so pretty obviously an anomaly and certainly worthy of an investigation. The doctors that reported her were punished by the administrators and actually forced to apologise to her so I think they are pretty guilty in the circumstances.
Looks like she might have targeted higher risk babies so it’s harder to catch, and of course many murders seem to be really good at faking feelings and appearing innocent. One part in the article makes me think all the victims were premature births, and that some of them were especially at risk due to that.
I’d say deaths in hospital aren’t rare. Especially in premature babies where survival could go either way. If you’re going to murder babies, a hospital is probably the place where you’re going to go unnoticed the longest.
That said, the timeline is pretty damning. Over a decade she’d still be doing it, but this was all in the space of just over a year.
While I agree with mandatory organ donation (or shifting to an opt-out system instead of opt-in), I don’t think Tyler could have been saved. Performing the transplant was a bad call. Even his mother says so at the end of the story
I only know the situation in Germany, but it’s likely similar. Consent is not the bottleneck. The number of organs that cannot be donated because consent is either unclear or not given at all is pretty small, even though a lot of people aren’t registered organ donors. Usually the next of kin are asked what the donor might have wanted and in the majority of cases, they agree with a donation.
Making donations mandatory would have a very minor effect.
The true bottleneck is that a very specific condition is needed in order to make organ donation possible. The donor has to be dead because you can’t take vital organs from a living person. But at the same time, their heart still has to be beating in order to keep the organs supplied with oxygen until they can be removed.
The only way this is possible is when the brain is dead but the heart and other organs still function with medical assistance. A person without a working brain is considered dead by law. This only happens with very serious brain injury, major strokes or similar incidents. And with improving treatment options, a lot of people who would have ended up brain dead a few decades ago, can now survive with varying neurological outcomes.
If you want a lot more organ donors, ban helmets. Otherwise, there are no simple solutions.

Bro, either just say it, or pretend you have no idea what happened. Don’t try to take this weird middle path.
Fun fact: Martinet was also the voice of Paarthurnax, one of the dragons in Skyrim.
Also, I can't believe that Nintendo's own tweet about this announcement got one of the facts wrong. They wrote:
Charles Martinet has been the original voice of Mario in Nintendo games for a long time, as far back as Super Mario 64.
He was actually the voice of Mario before Mario 64. His first official Mario role was in Mario Teaches Typing, which came out two years before Mario 64.
