"It wasn't Meningitis!" On the Eve of a June 3rd Alberta Trial the Stephans make a plea for aid from fellow Canadians

The David & Collet Stephan family.

New documents and files obtained by the Stephans last week painted a grim picture of what happened to their son during his final days.

"Zero objective Evidence of an infection. Initial suspected diagnosis was Meningitis but the CT scan ruled it out"
                    ~ Dr. Aoife O'Carroll Pediatric Neurologist / Mar 15 2012 

​
As one of the Key investigators on the Stephan File I ask that you forgive my blunt language as I summarize in the simplest of terms the Stephan case.  It's more disturbing than you might ever imagine in a free and democratic society.  It goes something like this:

1. Medical records: 18 month old child appears to have ingested toxic levels of potassium.  Swallowing, breathing and Cardiac functions all begin to fail.
2. Parents call 911
3. Every step of the child's medical care is fumbled.  Equipment shortages resulted in Ezekiel going over 8 minutes without oxygen.  The child dies
4. Doctors and medical service providers cover it up by trashing the records in three hospitals and two server sets. They go with the diagnosis the parents suggested it might be, even though the child did not have any actual symptoms of Meningitis.
5. Doctors send the boy to be chopped up at the medical examiners office where the ME is instructed to find meningitis.  He does this by having his colleague at the lab adjust a few results, but they forget to trash the originals.
6. Police take advantage of the situation in spite of objections by hospital staff and use the death of a child to take out a human rights activist (the Father).
7. With the support of the Superior Court of Alberta, the Crown prosecutors office successfully achieves a wrongful conviction.  The Court at this time was under the Direction and Control of Justice J.D. Rooke.
8. The Supreme Court of Canada overturns the Conviction.  The Crown moves to retry the parents.  The medical examiner flees the country (he also refuses to return to Canada for the next trial).  The lead RCMP investigator takes a quick retirement (the RCMP detachment is also white washed and restaffed).
9. The activist father exposes what happened in the last trial and Justice J.D. Rooke assigns himself over the Stephan case.  He then systematically shuts down every one of the defence applications, demands to see key evidence before the trial (curiously after which the crown appears to respond to evidence provided only to J.D. Rooke that is sealed), refuses to allow them to subpoena a large number of key witnesses, and refuses to award the Stephans costs from the previously wrongful conviction that they need to hire legal counsel.  
10.  On June 3rd 2019 the trial is scheduled to run where the Crown has indicated that they intend to place pictures of the Stephan's dissected child on a big screen in front of them and require them to argue without the assistance of legal counsel over what took place.  The Stephan's have retained counsel but the Crown is opposing the delay required for him to attend during their trial.  The Crown has now hired numerous witnesses as medical experts who were intimately involved in Ezekiel's care and who have obtained legal counsel in the face of the civil suite that is being filed against them.

Is this the Canada you know?  Let's take a deeper look.

The Stephans acquired a number of records that were secondary to the primary chart and appear to have been unaffected by the AHS purge of their son's medical records and documents.   

---

For 6 long years the Stephans have fought for an accurate copy of their son's medical records.   For six long years they have been almost entirely disappointed.  To date there has been a wrongful conviction, an appeal and a Supreme Court reversal of the conviction, costing the Stephans over $1,000,000.00, the tax payers even more.  They have had their names destroyed by the main stream media and are now homeless with their 4 children and have spent the last year moving from one place to another.  They have been made to rely on the kindness of other Canadians who are willing to take them in.
​
April of 2019 was a land mark hearing that showed that at least 176 medical records had either been removed from the Alberta Netcare system along with two recorded RAAPID calls from an Ontario Server set and virtually all charts from their sons stay at the Chinook Regional Hospital in Lethbridge Alberta.  All of the now undiscoverable records dealt with procedures and their residual effects from a 36 hour period of in hospital care.

"When Alberta Health Services indicated to the Court that they had provided all the records that now exist, we were devastated".  Their own records reference these other records that we are being told are no longer in the possession of AHS.  Where did they go and why were they removed? The Crown is planning to force us to argue over pictures of our son's dissected body without legal assistance.  They are going to force us to look at pictures of our deceased son without having the medical records to defend ourselves.  The Court knows that the records existed and what we are getting from Justice Rooke is "It's not my problem" "

Doctors knew Ezekiel did not have Meningitis and they had successfully treated him for potassium toxicity.

Doctor Sandy Cunningham from the Cardston Alberta Hospital successfully treated Ezekiel for the high potassium found in the lab results.  Ezekiel's blood pressure quickly normalized and he began to breath on his own within 30 minutes of being treated with Calcium Chloride.  

It was after after Ezekiel began breathing on his own that things took a turn for the worse.  Doctors testified that there was worry over Ezekiel possibly pulling out his breathing and NG tubes.  A drug called Roccuronium Bromide was administered and he fell into a deep and prolonged Cardiac Arrest that would result in severe brain damage and ultimately brain death. (Roccuronium is known to cause cardiac arrhythmias and if contraindicated for patients with electrolyte imbalances)

During transport to the Lethbridge Regional Hospital doctors received a report that Ezekiel had a potassium level of 6.4.  This number is concerning because medical staff had already watered down his blood supply with over 500 Ml of Saline before blood was drawn for the test.  a level of 4 is normal, 6.4 is alarming. The estimated level of 10 on arrival, if not treated would have been fatal.  It would have stopped his Heart, lungs and caused paralysis.

Dr. Sandy Cunningham

Doctors from the Alberta Children's hospital would point the blame squarely at Dr. Sandy Cunningham for lowering Ezekiel's Epinephrine in response to his stabilized blood pressure.  Records would show that after placing Ezekiel into the air ambulance, Alberta Children's Hospital staff would triple the dose of Roccuronium being administered to Ezekiel.

Notes taken by Dr. Naminder Sandhu. This is a section of the STARS transport log when the blame for the second cardiac arrest was placed on the reduction of Epinephrine ordered by Doctor Sandy Cunningham.

Crown Prosecutors knew about the cause of Ezekiel's  Cardiac Arrest

Of all that took place during the prosecution of the parents of Ezekiel, one thing stands out as the most egregious.  There is clear evidence that Crown Prosecutors knew everything and intentionally avoided exculpatory evidence.  One such example was when Crown Prosecutor Clayton Giles directed Dr. Sandy Cunningham to not speak to the issues surrounding potassium.  In the entire 3500 page volume of trial transcripts from the previous trial, there was only two references to potassium.  The following statement was one.  This clear and intentional avoidance of the obvious medical condition can only be seen as collusion.  

Crown Prosecutor Clayton Giles questioning Dr. Sandy Cunningham and directing him to steer clear of the topic of potassium.

My fellow Canadians, we need your assistance.  The Stephan's have four children who they love and who love them.  After 6 years of dealing with Alberta's broken Judicial system they are in no way naive enough to believe that the Alberta Courts will allow a fair trial or even one that will allow the truth to make it on the record.  

We need people to attend this trial, to talk about whats going on in Alberta with their friends and Neighbors and to call your local politicians and demand change.  If Judges like J.D. Rooke and Crown Prosecutors like Britta Kristensen are allowed to continue to push agendas and weaponize our courts against parents and their families, we will all lose.  If this case is successful, it will lead to forced medical fads being forced on our children.  As parents it is our right to act in our children's best interests.

​Please assist us by providing funding for medical experts to help us bring the truth to light and keep the Stephan Family together.

This Video shows what happens when medical fads are pushed on our children with little or no science to support them.  I hope you enjoy watching one of David Stephan's first video compilations on the topic.
