Boston Children’s Hospital and The State of MA – Set Dangerous Precedents
Resource of Information on Justina Pelletier, Parentectomy and Boston Children’s Hospital
Boston Children’s Hospital (BCH) & The State of MA 
Set Dangerous Precedents for the future of medical care and the well-being of children as well as adult patients. Boston Children’s Hospital’s strategy of patient engagement and risk management are hazardous, outdated and downright unethical while trampling boldly on patient and parental rights. What is going on?
As government will not act Failure to Listen and others are doing what we can to assist Justina and her parents. Failure to Listen will document and share information in the spirit of Freedom of Speech and transparency. Justina Pelletier case is a shameful display of poor leadership as well as NO LEADERSHIP.
Below is an ongoing List of online stories and resources around the web about the Justina Pelletier Case as well as other cases of child abduction cases at Boston Children’s Hospital. This list will be updated as new information is made available and accessible to us.
Goal: Create a resource of online information to share and analyze. Together– I believe we will find solutions to help the Pelletiers–daughter imprisoned for 13 months, eight of those months in a locked unit at Boston Children’s Hospitals. (Boston Children’s Hospital will have hefty profits for 2013 and 2014 unless Justice is served.)
