Alright, so leaving aside the other details of this story and attempting to be as neutral as possible:

What is linked here is PART of a PCR (Patient Care Report) from a BLS (Basic Life Support, i.e. EMT, someone with ~160 hours of training), working for a transport agency, or on an IFT (interfacility) unit.

"No interventions" doesn't mean the patient was not unwell. In fact, "Impression: Dehydration". It means that the patient was stable, and that no interventions would be required from the BLS provider (because BLS providers cannot start IV fluids, though in limited situations they can maintain them).

"No acute life threats noted". As an EMT, then paramedic, then critical care paramedic, I probably transported 8,000+ patients. In 7,500+ of those, I would have made the exact same statement on my PCR. In EMS, acute life threats are "things that have a possibility of killing the patient before they get to our destination facility/hospital". The times I've noted "acute life threats" are times I've transported GSW victims with severed femoral arteries, and patients having a STEMI or in full cardiac arrest. The vast majority of my Code 3 transports (i.e. lights/sirens to the closest facility) have not had "acute life threats".

The child's destination on this PCR was not foster care but to a higher level of care (St Lukes Regional Medical Center in Boise, versus the smaller facility in Meridian).

A few notes: "child was found to be acutely stable" - acutely stable is not a thing. Also, the general expectation for a lower acuity interfacility transport is that no interventions en route are required.

As I said, I don't know about the bigger scenario of this, but what I do know is EMS PCRs, and it is very common for people to latch on to certain phrases as "gotchas". We talked often in our PCRs about assessing "sick/not sick". Being "not sick" didn't mean you didn't have a medical issue, nor did it mean you didn't belong at a hospital; what it solely meant was "this is a patient that we need to prioritize transporting to definitive care versus attempting to stabilize on scene before doing so".

I did catch these two points which give me question:

> Now, I am about to show you empirical evidence that my Grandson, Baby Cyrus, was violently kidnapped by Meridian police, without cause and without evidence, that Baby Cyrus was falsely declared to be in “imminent danger,” even though CPS and St. Luke’s hospital admitted that he was not, and that my daughter and son-in-law were illegally prosecuted in secret, without due process

That sounds like the issue was with the police, not with medical malpractice. I'm skeptical, though, of "illegal secret prosecutions".

> Nancy had made speeches around the country in national forums and was completing a video exposing the lack of oversight in Georgia’s Department of Family and Child Services (DFCS) as well as Child Protective Services (CPS) nationally; and started to receive lots of death threats. Unfortunately her video was never published as her and her husband were murdered, being found shot to death in March 2010.

> Listen, if people on the streets will murder someone else for a $100 pair of Air Jordan’s, you better believe that they will murder a Senator who threatens an $80 billion child trafficking cash machine.

Okay, we're turning into conspiracy theories here. Multiple autopsies ruled this as a murder-suicide.
