description: In response to a records request submitted about the inconsistent legislative actions taken by the governments of the State of California and the State of Missouri following the suicides of Audrie Taylor Pott (on September 12th 2012) and Catherine Daisy Coleman (on August 04th 2020); California’s Department of Public Health (CDPH) disclosed records acknowledging that they recognize the month of September 10th as World Suicide Prevention Month. According to CDPH, “September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, a dedicated time for us to come together with compassion to address this difficult topic and have honest conversations about mental health and suicide. (…) In California, suicide is the second leading cause of death among adolescents and young adults aged 15 to 24.” As you may be aware, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W had created the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability (HIPAA) tag for the first time on his WordPress website in reference to the inconsistent legislative actions that were taken following the August 04th 2020 suicide of Catherine Daisy Coleman and the September 12th 2012 suicide of Audrie Taylor Pott. It is the judgment of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W that the provisions of HIPAA enable current/former healthcare workers to express written objections to a specific course of medical treatment a patient is subjected to if the current/former healthcare worker believes the treatment to be discriminatory and/or racist and/or sexist in nature. It is also the judgment of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W that the inconsistent legislative actions taken (in the State of California and the State of Missouri) following the suicides of Audrie Taylor Pott and Catherine Daisy Coleman merited discussions on the subject of “sexual assault as a factor increasing the risk of suicide” (particularly) among current/former healthcare workers.Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was in 2013 employed for the Fulton State Hospital (FSH): a Missouri state government agency, which is a component of the Missouri Department of Mental Health (MODMH). Between October 26th 2013 and November 21st 2013, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was subjected to an internal Missouri state government investigation following the self-injurious non-suicidal attempt of a patient/prisoner of the FSH now defunct Biggs Forensic Center (BFC) New Outlook Program (NOP). On (or around) November 21st 2013, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was “cleared” of that Missouri state investigation. Despite several efforts to obtain records relating to that Missouri state government investigation he was subjected to (between October 26th 2013 and November 21st 2013), Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W has thus far been unable to obtain the documents he has asked for.Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was very much concerned upon learning about the August 04th 2020 suicide of Catherine Daisy Coleman because he was in Calendar Year 2013 a public employee of the MODMH (FSH). As a former employee of the MODMH (FSH), it remains unclear to Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W whether or not his former employers acknowledge as a matter of reality the fact that sexual assault is a factor increasing the risk of suicide. It also remains unclear to Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W if the Personal Health Information (PHI) of Catherine Daisy Coleman reflected this risk. According to a January 30th 2018 report published by the National Council on Disability (NCD), [1] “affirmative and effective consent” is being taught to college/university students of the United States of America (U.S.A) during the course of their Freshmen year; [2] college/university students are informed about “healthy sexual relationships” during the course of their 1st year of post-secondary academic education; [3] twenty percent (20%) of women were sexually assaulted in a college/university setting by the time they had reached their Senior Year in Calendar Year 2005; [4] thirty two (32%) of women with a disability were sexually assaulted during Calendar Year 2014 and 2015 in a college/university setting; [5] sexual assault is a “deeply personal violation,” which leaves “physical and emotional impacts that change the lives of victims;” [6] sexual assault causes “long term physical, psychological and emotional effects, including depression, post-traumatic stress, thoughts of suicides and sleep disorders.”Via email, the former employers of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W (i.e.: the MODMH) have refused to deny that Catherine Daisy Coleman was a patient of Missouri Girls Town following the January 08th 2012 sexual assault she was a victim of (only confirming that Missouri Girls Town is indeed a contractual partner of the MODMH). The terms and conditions of the contractual agreements concluded between the MODMH and Missouri Girls Town recognize that Missouri Girls Town is a “time-limited placement resource for children requiring active coordinated and professional intervention in a highly structured environment by virtue of a demonstrated inability to function in any less restrictive setting. Children requiring residential treatment services exhibit a severe mental illness and/or persistent mental disorder as diagnosed according to the DSM-IV. These children may be unable to function consistently in an open, public school setting, may present a chronic runaway risk, and may present a history of showing rage, including physical aggression toward self and others.” It is the judgment of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W that the criminal charges filed by the State of Missouri on (or around) January 09th 2014 (which had been assigned Case No.: KIND - CR00011) failed to seriously take into consideration the damage that had been inflicted on the physical and mental well-being of Catherine Daisy Coleman on (or around) January 08th 2012.  

Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W has used his advocacy skills to have his former employers as well as their contractual partners acknowledge the reality that sexual violence is a factor increasing the risk of suicide for the purpose of preventing in the future similar suicides such as the one committed by Catherine Daisy Coleman on (or around) August 04th 2020. Unfortunately, however, it remains unclear for Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W what the obligations of the MODMH pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA) actually are. The MODMH were extremely vague to Sunshine requests submitted on the subject of [1] whether they have in the past disclosed the PHI of an individual in circumstances, where discrimination was at play (for the purpose of remedying the discrimination); [2] whether they were in the past required to disclose the PHI of an individual either to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and/or the courts (for the purpose of remedying the discrimination). As a matter of principle, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W unequivocally condemns violence committed against girls and women irrespective of their racial backgrounds, their sexual orientations, their national origins, their religious affiliations, their disability status and/or their age groups. Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W also condemns malicious efforts designed to place girls and women in circumstances encouraging the commission of suicide after a documented incident of sexual violence. Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W takes full responsibility for this publication on the subject of “World Suicide Prevention Month in California’s Department of Public Health (CDPH): Context on the Inconsistent Legislative Action Taken by the Governments of the State of California and the State of Missouri Following the Suicides of Audrie Taylor Pott and Catherine Daisy Coleman.” The former employers of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W (i.e: the MODMH) provide the following advice on how to talk to people who may be contemplating suicide: “When someone you know is in emotional pain, ask them directly: ‘are you thinking about killing yourself?’ Research suggests acknowledging suicide may reduce rather than increase suicidal ideation.  Asking the question in a direct, unbiased manner communicates that you are open to speaking about suicide in a non-judgmental and supportive way. Other questions you can ask include, ‘How can I help?’ and ‘what can we do about this?’. Asking these questions can open the door to honest communications to learn what next steps need to be taken. Often, we don’t know the challenges others face on a day-to-day basis.” Be well. Take care. Keep yourselves at arms distance.Michael A.

description: The Association for the Advancement of Civil Liberties (AACL) regrets to inform members of the general public/representatives of the media (who may follow its work) that unknown others were very much eager to assert control over the written content of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W pertaining to [1] the January 08th 2012 sexual assault Catherine Daisy Coleman was victim of; [2] the very lenient criminal charges filed by the State of Missouri on behalf of Catherine Daisy Coleman on (or around) January 09th 2014; [3] the sexual assault Audrie Taylor Pott was victim of on (or around) September 04th 2012; [4] the California government decision to enact Audrie’s Law on September 30th 2014, thereby recognizing sexual assault as a factor that has the potential to increase the risk of suicide among girls/women; [5] the decision of the National Council on Disability (NCD) to recognize sexual assault as a factor that has the potential to increase the risk of suicide on (or around) January 30th 2018; [6] the application of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in cases of suicides after a documented incident of sexual assault. Unfortunately, these eager and unknown others have gone on to intrusively insert themselves into the publications of Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W both with malice and without ever requesting for his prior approval. Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was very much displeased upon learning that his written content on various digital platforms were being filtered by Internet Search Engines (ISE), which include (but may not be limited to) AOL, Bing/MSN, and Yahoo!One of the main reasons Michael Ayele (a.k.a) W had previously decided to publish some of his written content on the Internet Archive (Archive.org) is because they had advertised that they would “love to host [his] digital artifacts.” At the time Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W began to publish some of his written content on the inconsistent legislative actions taken by the governments of the State of California and the State of Missouri following the suicides of Audrie Taylor Pott (on September 12th 2012) and Catherine Daisy Coleman (on August 04th 2020); Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W had not signed any binding agreement that subjected his written content on the Internet Archive (Archive.org) (or other platforms) to evaluation, examination and unsolicited comments intended to “summarize” what the work is about. In other words, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W has never agreed to take on the role of the “Student” for his published works on the Internet Archive (Achive.org) (or other platforms) while the so-called “web” took on the role of “Professor.” Likewise, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W has never agreed to take on the role of “Plaintiff” and/or “Defendant” for his published works on the Internet Archive (Archive.org) (or other platforms) while the so-called “web” took on the role of “Judge, Jury and Executioner.”As you may be aware, Michael A. Ayele (a.k.a) W was in 2013 employed for the Fulton State Hospital (FSH): a Missouri state government agency, which is a component of the Missouri Department of Mental Health (MODMH). Between October 26th 2013 and November 21st 2013, Michael A.
