The phenomenon of children acting different around their mother is nothing new or unique. I have 4 children and they are always different when I am around. Children feel safe around their mother and will express themselves as they are. Have you ever seen children hold their emotions together all day at school and then the minute they get to mom - they lose their mind and let out all the feels of the day. It’s totally normal behavior of a mom/child relationship Also I was just at a Dr appt with my 17 year old and when the Dr asked how she had been feeling the answer was “fine”- then I interjected and said actually she has complained of nausea and headaches for 3 weeks - then the child remembered and said oh yeah - I forgot about those symptoms.
completely agree. Even mom v dad, I was always more vulnerable with my mom because I knew she'd get it, or make it it better. The hospital trying to vilify that point in every way is just vile.
It is abundantly clear that the staff’s main goal was to punish Beata, rather than help or ‘save’ Maya. Maya was their weapon of punishment. Beady and Smith tag teamed to drive Beata into the ground. If their focus was really Maya, she would have had daily intensive therapy 1) to determine if their suspicions were correct, 2) to help a child psychologically through a forced separation from her family. Disgusting and I’m glad the family was awarded what they were. I hope it survives all appeals.
That county had the highest rate of M.B.P in the entire us we find after the trial. It was a Dr. who saw the same pattern very frequently, but it was all in her head. I read the numbers, and was blown away by those numbers. Outrageous what this organization has done.
When the nurse said "We dont lie to patients, we are very transparent to patients", the red flags went up. This testimony was presented well but had a clear narrative for the defence. Nurse could remember every detail of conversations with Beata and Maya (obviously in times of distress) but didn't seem to recall any conversations with anyone else, let alone who was present.
Her focus those two nights was on HER PATIENT, so that's what she remembered well...NOT all the other people briefly in & out of the room. Don't forget, this happened more than seven years ago, and it was only two nights...I doubt I'd be able to remember every employee who was there, or what they said, especially if they were just quickly in & out doing routine tasks.
WRT Bedy- during Maya interaction w/ lawyer, Bedy said door had to remain open so they could hear due to fall risk. But she then said she couldn't have listened in as nurse station to far away. If staff can't hear to monitor for fall risk, what purpose served by leaving door open?
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.She pulled the fake fall game many times including Tampa General, Lurie's and JHACH. It was her schtick. They were going to sue one way or another.
Beady is soft spoken, perfect diction, perfect answers, no hesitating to ans, no trying to remember, no breaks, so rehearsed and so squeaky clean and sneaky!!
Does everyone know John Hopkins had to payout $190 million to over 8,000 victims in the largest settlement case? What a great hospital. Patients beware of this cesspool of employees that do bad things.
@russellchandler4417 nice job of slandering the whole hospital and all employees. shame on you. you have NO idea the difficulty it is taking care of people. its life and death and i believe that most caregivers do their best to provide excellent care. this family had a mom who was doing extensive harm to this child. stop thinking that because it’s huge conglomerate that it is less than competent. this family is going for the deep pockets!!
“… cesspool of employees …” Perfect description! And thank you for your information about Johns Hopkins and having to pay $190 Million already to their “victims” (another perfect way to describe patients there and their families) Florida take notice! Stay away from JOHNS HOPKINS ALL CHILDRENS HOSPITAL.
I'm sorry but if Maya was actually faking all of this and she was told she was going to miss CHRISTMAS AND HER B-DAY, I wholeheartedly believe she would have said "OK I'm faking, I made it all up for attention, let me go home" I just can't see a child going along with all of these medical procedures if she was making it up!!??? There's just NO WAY! And I also don't believe she was cussing and screaming unless she was in pain and even then I find it hard to believe.
I think she was trapped in the lie, to admit she was faking it all would condemn her mother outright, confirming all the suspicions JHACH had about Beata. Beata admitted she put her child in a 5 day coma, with a coin-toss risk of death, she would not have been able to get away with pretending that Maya had "fooled" her. That's probably what finished Beata off, she knew the jig was up, and she was going to be exposed and lose everything.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.dude when your child is in pain and doctors are not doing anything about it, you might go to different lengths to get help, my grandma was getting sick and very badly and the doctors were going to charge her insane amounts of money to treat the sickness but only temporarily, my mom found a product from Mexico that wasn’t fda approved and guess what? It healed my grandma, it’s all about money to these people, once you get that you’ll understand, I came here after watching the documentary and John Hopkins practically made fraud to the insurance companies as they were charging them for the very illness they were so desperately denying, if they didn’t believe in the illness why were they charging the insurance company for it? Oh that’s right MONEY
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. The fact that Beata put her daughter in the coma should tell you she would have done ANYTHING to get her daughter out of excruciating pain! Did you watch any of this trial? I don't see how anyone could think this way. Sorry but that's mind boggling. Beata was evaluated by SEVERAL mental health professionals ALL OF WHICH SAID SHE DID NOT HAVE MUNCHAUSEN'S!!! There was no "jig" to be up, her daughter was suffering every day in a hospital that had just had her taken from her and was being accused of heinous things when all she wanted was her daughter HELPED NOT HARMED FURTHER!! The only way she saw an end was to terminate herself from the situation so Maya could be home! Do you know the hoops you have to jump through to get your child back from FL DCF? The bs they put you through? Because I do. And it almost cost me my life as well. Stop judging and see it for what it really is! Open your eyes, there's a whole world out there and the FL gov is corrupt.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. so... your argument is that... a doctor said "we gonna put you in a coma where you have a 50% chance of dying" nd the little girl.... who was "faking" it said "ok" ?????? i see...
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. they could easily pull this from Mayas medical chart. I work in healthcare and chart all the time, it would be the easiest thing ever to see who was charting at that time but everyone remains clueless somehow 😅
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. doubtful. Taking the pictures in the first place the way they did was fcked and inappropriate and not documenting that they did such a thing was unethical and intentional.
I'm not clear on why any doctor or nurse is surprised or shocked by a 10 year old in pain and on a load of meds might curse or scream. My 8 year old got really mad and shouted and cursed at me. Yes, it was totally inappropriate and he was "redirected" with his language, but kids do know those words and their affects.
This NP is fabulous. Best witness yet. Competent, answers questions with knowledge and factually and NOT afraid to actually tell it like it is. I would feel my child was very well taken care of in her hands.
I loved her responding to objections herself “it’s not hearsay”. Or pointing out silly questions “I could speculate, but that would require that I speculate “. Also turning the tables and making Anderson appear not credible when he was attempting to do that to her “A canula doesn’t go in your nose” 😅
@@Jessica-hk5qtwhat a great question 🤔 alarming that’s it’s taken this long to come across someone who worked at JH that people feel comfortable with isn’t it?
look at 7.58 on stream. its intense and must see. Judge breaks his own orders to give more hours to ANDERSON and Shapiro called for prejudice. There is interesting deal that is the root of the trial. Anderson will talk his way to mistrial. How and why did it get to trial?
and why an insurance company didn't just shovel money at it to go away... with the truth on your side it's better to fight and expose scoundrels like these.
@@russellchandler4417 u understand it was not Dr. Smith that settled. It was the insurance company for Suncoast who chose to settle rather than go to trial.
I don’t know is it me but I feel like the nurse the doctor and Beaty have attended all their rehearsals but in the end the jury questions sound like they don’t believe them it’s just that obvious
3:37:58 I notice that the signature says Paola, so... why didn't she take the pics? And since they knew the uncle was coming to get M, why didn't they do the pics prior. I had no idea that she was already dressed and ready, when they stripped her and took her pics. This whole situation was VERY odd.
1:36:38 - Right. When totally normal procedures are "requested by doctors for perfectly valid medical reasons," what's the reason that (1) Risk Management is consulted about them beforehand, suggesting the social worker & a 2nd person do them together and (2) the products & outcomes of the procedures aren't put into or documented within the medical files?
@@rncgsu I didn't mean the DCF specifically asked for them I'm saying due to the overall situation and how volatile it was becoming, risk management has to ensure they provide an accurate portrayal of Maya's physical state before court. Verbal description could be questioned so photos are the best option. The hospital were basically like a proxy foster caretaker and responsible to ensure nothing happens to Maya under their watch. I am a medical foster carer & can't even take the child to the doctor unless I clear it first & explain why. I then have to document the visit and outcome despite having had this child for 8 years.
Who would trust a hospital that already had to payout a $190 Million class action lawsuit to 8,000 hospital victims. Nurse Thatcher is part of the problem. Another hospital employee was able to talk to the mother on the same day but Nurse Thatcher should chose another profession. One that does not involve people.
@@ThatRedheddeven in the very one sided documentary, Beata records herself rewarding Maya with 2 doses of Ketamine for doing some PT exercises. Many people have testified to the same behavior from mom and child.
My 75# Golden Retriever gets .17 mcg of K for pain and is doing great. I asked my Vet if I could do inj at home, answer: “I know you’re watching Maya trial-No way!”
And if you were a veterinary nurse or doctor she may have responded differently. As you most likely aren't given your comment I'd say playing stab the gab in your dog would be insane.
So glad these awful things are found liable for the awful things they did to a child and found liable for her mother killing herself...it's their fault and so glad a jury proved that

The photo taking was not a 'medical procedure' risk management's only input was protection of the staff. i.e making sure it could not be misconstrued to allege inappropriate conduct allegations.
Everytime I hear Suncoast it just makes me so mad!! A 3rd for Profit company! If there’s no foster children there’s no Suncoast subcontracting out CPS should be a crime shame on FL
CPS I’m sure sets it up like this so they’re not ultimately liable. This case is perfect example. First the hospital, then sun coast. CPS is the last and if push comes to shove they’d say but these companies should have …
Maya liked all these people, including bedy. She was being disingenuous when she claimed she fabricated her journal in some bizarre attempt to manipulate them into letting her go. And all these minor incidents are nonsense. They didn't strip her naked. She was wearing shorts and a training bra which exposed about as much as her pt video outfit. They gave her some dresses, but hid one in some sort of show of control? She was crying her eyes out and, rather than hug her, bedy was supposed to say, "stop. don't come any closer. I'm not allowed to hug you". The plaintiffs have built up bedy as a monster, and yet the voice recording they played over and over isn't even her. Bedy seems pretty low key and normal. The woman monitoring the call seemed nice; mindful that she was talking to a child.

If Ketamine is so addictive, where are all these ketamine addicts, then? We've all heard about the opioid epidemic and the meth addicts all over the place. There has never been a "ketamine epidemic." I've never even heard of any Ketamine addicts & I'm a Social Worker who encounters meth addicts all the time! If Ketamine were something ppl got addicted to, surely I would have met someone addicted to it in the last 20 years working with the public. I've heard of it used in 2 ways: (1) The only effective solution for treatment-resistant Depression currently known to Psychiatrists, and (2) a party drug in street form known as Special K that, much like Shrooms, Ecstacy, and Acid are used occasionally, rather than daily. No one is addicted to "party drugs" or uses them daily, which is why they're known as "party drugs" - while Marijuana, Heroin, and Meth are not. Levy was truly discredited.

This lady would not be involved in the hearing were she not contracted for $450/hr or $10,000 over 4 years. How much weight should we really give her?
@@cjo7277 She was exactly the same, you projected what you wanted to see and the depo editing allowed you to think the worst. The truth was plain to see, Maya obviously liked her, asked her for comfort, even. Maya just lied about EVERYTHING on the stand. Her life really is a lie.
I don’t believe Maya, I haven’t since after first few days. They are complaining about normal pt complaints… bad food, terrible toilet paper soap etc…, waiting for a nurse. They r seriously nitpicking and it’s not much considering she was there for almost 3 months. Oooh and low and behold, hmmm I saw TWO red dresses that were ‘taken and not given / lost’ by Bedy, she’s wearing both in two different photos. Then Anderson starts asking, where is the blue and cream dress? Seriously…… now it’s a blue and cream DRESS! Get over it, buy a new one. I think maya was craving attention from her mother and was trying to complain and crab about anything and everything. I think she’s way to spoiled, and what parent allows a 9 yr old to wear makeup and SHAVE LEGS? At 9!! I don’t think so!
@@ThatRedhedd The issue at hand is high dose ketamine. The hospital was willing to use low dose, to an extent. High dose ketamine is extremely dangerous due to depressed breathing. The 'experts' only get paid if they diagnose and treat crps or another chronic pain syndrome. The hospital doctors get paid regardless. If there were any peer reviewed studies that showed high dose ketamine as significantly improving pain management or functionality for an extended period of time, it would be standard practice. As for risk management, once maya claimed to fall and beata started yelling and demanding, any hospital would include risk management in all decisions.
Judge told them they could use the same amount of time. Not so bad. He has become resolved to the fact the defense will finish their case no matter what the plaintiff does
Just another example of how amateurish the outfit is... Can't manage their time, but know that the judge will just give them more. This trial is a charade and an insult.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. yeah, I was disappointed in the judge extending the time. Just hope the defense takes their time and gets all the evidence they need in.
9:45:48 Plaintiff lawyer is clearly suffering from Factitious Litigation Disorder by Proxy, with poor old Jack (ie, soon to be poor old Jack, with Jackall left in his pocket after he loses his shirt) as the witless Proxy, so to save the jury from a nightmare headache of 6 more months going in circles, the jury instruction should be: "Members of the jury, this case is totally forked. Go home, do not discuss the case, do not watch Netflix ever again, and if anyone approaches you about the case, knee them in the bolix".

The USA TODAY Network reviewed hundreds of Smith’s cases in conjunction with a multi-part investigation into Florida’s child welfare system to be published in coming months. It found more than a dozen instances where charges were dropped, parents were acquitted or caregivers had credible claims of innocence yet suffered irredeemable damage to their lives and reputations.
If you believe the defense witnesses then you have to believe that every one of the plaintiffs witnesses lied on the stand. Some of whom did not exactly help the plaintiff’s case.
Either the defense witnesses lied, or the plaintiffs. But the defense witnesses testimonies actually matched the evidence, and reports that were taken at the time of the events. Plus all of these doctors and nurses from separate facilities all had similar encounters with beata and Maya, and they were always erratic, and beata demanding obscene amounts of drugs for her 9yr old, under weight daughter.
WRT Bedy, she stated numerous times prior and today initially that Risk Mgt required photos, and DCF not involved. Then by end, she suddenly stated she clearly remembered asking DCF.
Great real time documentation by nurse Thacher! Most nurses hate charting b/c it takes extra time and mental energy to record a word picture for others to read. Those direct quotes and specific examples were priceless, I just wish those notes would have been read out loud b/c it would have a greater impact on the jury.
And that one nurse, in the blue blazer, I didn't get her name, but I would be proud to work along side of her anyday. That is a nurse who stands up for her patients and advocates for them! I wonder how many people watching this trial could do the job that medical professionals do, see what they see, deal with abusive families etc, She has dealt with dying children. Maya was not terminal. And that was offensive to parents who actually had to put their children on hospice because they truly were terminal. God bless that nurse. Anderson met his match.
@MadisonMadison-dl2hv It was amazing. It had to come to a head at some point, and she did it. I love people like her! That is one strong woman who stands by her convictions. She was very credible and caring. I think even the jury saw it by their questions. Mic drop moment.
@@MadisonMadison-dl2hv Beata had "palliative care" levels of Midazolam lined up to ease Maya's passing at home. The hospital stepped in just in time to save her life.
@MadisonMadison-dl2hv It gave me chills and it still does. I just can't even imagine. Olivia Gant's mother put her in hospice, and she died of starvation at seven years old without even being sick. It was the saddest case I've ever heard about. JHACH Took Care of Maya!
There’s no limit, the judge advised the jury of this at the conclusion of their day at approx timestamp 7:45:00 & that the jury is expected to receive the case Tues 7th Nov or Wed 8th Nov
oh my.. when you think Anderson is a bad speaker and then comes Dr. Levy. I bet she is an expert and truly knows, what she is talking about, but the presentation of her knowledge could be slightly better 😬😱
TBH, I feel like I could have done a better job fielding the questions about the K-Quacks and their infusion levels. The defence really dropped the ball by not prepping her better. Inexcusable.
That was proof, if it were needed, that Whitney should have been running this case with Ms Lawrence, and Anderson should have been allocated the coffee run. That cross was like a surgical dissection by a world-class surgeon. She was utterly unprepared and could not have looked worse if she tried, but if it were Anderson asking the questions, she might have come out on top 😂
Painful is to pay 450/h for her knowledge regarding that case. It’s serious and god how ignorant you have to be to not be prepared for that. it was pathetic
@@joannatomaszewskayes she got absolutely cooked. Same one-sided, blind thinking that got the hospital in trouble. Didn't know anything about the case or Maya.
Wow it was extremely painful. The amount of money the defense spent on her is ridiculous. She sounded very incompetent. You could feel her pain it was so transparent.
Nurse Thatcher did an excellent job of explaining what she was doing for Maya and why she was doing it...and why certain things couldn't be done. She is obviously very experienced and concerned for her patient's safety.
That woman felt wronged and she played the long and the short game to get retribution on this family. She's someone who enjoys fighting. It's her thing.
1:16:11 So you were right outside the door... that was open, WITH HER ATTORNEY PRESENT, when I'm sure he wouldn't have let her fall and if she had fit some crazy reason, gotten her help. The fact that she was about to listen (which she clearly was), is wrong on so many levels. She deserved to have privacy with her attorney.
As a kid or even an adult, we remember things not exactly as they happened. Maya was on meds, she was 10, think about how you remember things and if you’re positive that’s the way it really happened????
More positive if youve got dad asking for 220 mil based on how bad it was for you at the hospital, despite being in mortal danger at home, dad didnt protect her from Beata did he
Considering the history of the hospital and bad employees they had to settle a class action lawsuit for $190 million in another case. And they still continue harmful acts costing them millions already.
If that was the voice of the third party social service agent, that was not anywhere near Maya, how would she know to tell Maya to tell her mom about the shopkins?
I’m so confused why the nurse had such a huge change in her demeanor from the defenses questioning to the plaintiff’s. She clearly came in and was told what to focus on! She sure made sure to tell the jury over and over how uncooperative Maya and Biata were and to tell the jury that Maya cussed people out and screamed at people. It’s so interesting how many people testified about how sweet and quiet Maya was. It just doesn’t make sense. Maybe it was because this is the treatment Maya and Biata received by this lady. No wonder Biata was so frustrated! Lol If she got this nurse the Plaintiff just interviewed who is rude and condescending and who knows EVERYTHING until it’s convenient for her not to know EVERYTHING! I would have acted out too! Just saying!
Remember that this nurse took care of Maya very early in her hospital stay, when her pain was at its very worst & the ICU team was still trying to get it under control...so it makes sense that she would be acting really upset during this time. I think the reports of her being quiet & sweet were from later on, once her pain was under a little better control.
@@katey614 But her pain was never really under control. She was wasting away and had stopped telling people because they were telling her she was crazy and didn't have it!
@brendab2946 didn't they acknowledge they believe she was faking it and now say treating her for CPS? They took Maya away from parents on basis she was faking it. They billed over 500K for something they did not believe.
@@rncgsuDon't you listen to the evidence being presented?. Since she was sheltered at the hospital *by dcf* JHACH treated her as she was admitted. They didn't carry out investigations into her illness, they treated her as they and every other hospital would any other patient with a diagnosis (not made by them) of CRPS. That is pain medication, OT , PT, CBT and room and board!. It's not difficult to understand, if you listen.
It’s almost like she was coached by the defense or something? 🤯Not like every other JH witness, no, no! It is funny how all the JH witnesses so far have been deceitful and done backbends to swerve around giving direct answers to the prosecution and after this long, one witness takes the stand who isn’t immediately shady and everyone thinks she’s Mother Teresa by comparison 😅
I'm so surprised the jury didn't see through this family's scam. Wow. 260 million dollars. They did not have nearly a solid enough case for that ridiculous amount.
ANDERSON will walk into a mistrial which I believe the defense wants. Listen to stream at 7.58 when judge reverses his own order of 59 hrs per side and the deal between plaintiff and defense. very intense. They know he cant keep from commenting and it will be a mistrial
This hospital is so corrput. Saying Maya was faking it to take child away from parents then billing insurance company for CPS. Medical insurance and wire fraud.
Too many people have confirmed the same yet why are people denying it? Her mum was acting extremely irrational. Reporting it was more than reasonable. Then the court took over after an investigation.
I hate that Beata is not able to testify to her own actions and statements. I'm surprised that the NP is able to provide testimony as to what someone else said to her. With Maya not in the courtroom and Beata gone, doesn't that qualify as hearsay?

OMG - the valium reward tablet 😮. Not only shocking to offer it, but as a nurse, how did Beata not realise how unbelievably wrong this would seem to the nurses around her? You don’t go into a hospital setting and start giving out controlled substances to your children! Her behaviour just seems so out-of-control at that moment. I think it offers quite an insight into what Besta thought of as ‘normal’ behaviour by that point.
When mom sees it’s own child suffer like that for hours an hours moaning screaming not sleeping , then she feels that pain also moms know what I mean, sometimes mom feels it even stronger, so you want to stop it and do everything to make it less and Valium may seem like an answer do not judge for that, this nurse obviously is not a mom
Absolutely - also totally obvious it is not her on the phone. It’s just gotten silly - Anderson asking defense witness from another hospital stay whether a previous witness deposition was the “Cathy Bedy of YOUR hospital” 😅 To see her countenance on the stand today, after all that buildup by Anderson painting her as satan incarnate…. Did not line up. She held her own very well.

After watching this competent, seemingly genuine, highly professional nurse Thatcher on the witness stand, I am even more torn about this case.... I was 99% sure the hospital is guilty as charged....but I am getting concerned about Maya's behavior and (what appears to be) her dysfunctional relationship with her mom... that hospice comment (allegedly made by the mom) was a jaw-dropping moment to say the least 😮😮😮
The mom seems very forward/blunt. I truly think that Maya had psychological issues and wanted her mom’s attention. I don’t think the mom was the problem. I still think the hospital got it wrong in a lot of thins with Maya’s care and should pay something.
Too bad John Hopkins Hospital have a history of corruption. They had to payout $190m in a class action lawsuit. Thanks to lying and corrupt employees not protecting patients.
Man Whitney is absolute 🔥🚒🔥 on cross ❌ he puts the fire out in any argument against the plaintiffs what a superstar of a lawer.... Anderson! move over! Whitney... is ...working!!!
Beatty's job was to see what children she could snatch from families under the guise of "Best for the Child" I know how these people work.... I was a victim of their system then worked for the system in a counselling agency that contracted with DCF. They all lie for each other to keep the facade they care...
WRT Levy & Boston CH, they may not state much about ketamine, but they sre proud about being 1st in pediatric (incl infants) studies with morphine, opiodes, & methadone. So, she wasn't truthful & transparent stating that they (Boston CH) relies on rehab & physical therapy.
When this person started working with Maya, shouldnt she hsve looked at the notes to see what Maya has been given for pain and whether it was a help or not?
She was just ill-prepared to testify. That's the defence team's fault and it's inexcusable. Four years of preparing for this hearing and I honestly feel *I'd* give a better account of myself on the K-quacks' infusions after just sitting through this trial. 🤷♂️
@laurieschmidt2672 oh, i don't know,,, she was either nervous or has a speech impediment, and for a while looked shaky, until the cross- examiner tripped over his own feet and fell flat on his face, and then she was all right again. ketamine isn't a classically addictive drug like opioids or nicotine, but her opening remarks about the risks apply to all MDMA antagonists. She just needed to say there are obvious generic risks, regardless of particular history, which challenges Kirkpatrick's unfounded assumption that it isn't potentially addictive.
5:02:30 Best moment of the day: Anderson admitting that his cross of Bedy was an unmitigated shambles, then the judge sarcastically pointing out his two co-counsel if he needs a *competent* lawyer to substitute for him! This judge's sardonic wit is wasted on the cretinous Anderson.🙄
Go to 7.58 Judge reverses his order that each side gets 59 hrs only to present their case. He reverses it to give 5 more hrs to ANDERSON. Then there was a deal. ANDERSON will talk his way into a mistrial and I believe it is a great strategy
@@russellchandler4417 TBF they don't trust anyone or have any respect for medical professionals, they think they're smarter than all the neuropsychologists and anaesthesiologists combined. Their questions are just used to communicate how much they hate the hospital and how much they look down on physicians, nurses and social workers. In other words, Nutflix nutters who believe what their TV tells them.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. It maybe history about to repeat itself. John Hopkins Hospital settled a $190 million dollar class action case since they are a corrupt organization. Full of coverups and bad employees.
He *could* be a great lawyer, he will never achieve his potential playing second fiddle to Anderson. He is slipping into emulating Andersons rhetoric. "Nothing wrong with being paid by the hour" everyone on that team who wants to succeed in their career should be seeking employment elsewhere after this trial. Go back to pre jury entering today, watch their faces when Anderson admits He fd up with Ms Bedy. The redhead is so embarrassed she dips her face and covers it with her hand 5:02:00 - 5:03:00
If the father signed a consent on admission for videos and photography, why would they need to get another consent? The photos were not a treatment. She was under d c f custody. I hope that the defense explains this to the jury.
It's the plaintiff's tactic, keep asking the same question over and over, planting the seed in the jury's mind, even if objected to, the jury still heard it.
It is illegal to take half naked photos of a child and no court would allow that unless an autopsy was made and the photos would be under seal. It doesn’t matter who they say consented. It was wrong without a court order and courts wouldn’t order that bogeys order photos of a dressed child and injuries only.
@TAG77 She was in shorts and a sports bra. But there's no problem showing those photos several times, for the past several weeks, for the entire world to see. Does that make any sense to you? Kind of hypocritical. They could have just shown them to the jury and the witness they were addressing those photos to. But no. Let's put them out there for anyone to gander at. You do understand why they were taken, don't you? Or maybe you don't...
The jury is even making up their own rules for hospital staff... One question insinuated that Bedy needed an "ear-witness" to her being granted DCF permission over the phone to take photos. 🤷♂️ They made up their minds before they ever sat down.
WOW yea hi I’m also someone who’s worked in the substance use disorder field and Sharon Levy is being WILDLY misleading about “addictions” and is explaining them only in a way that could include Ketamine. The net she is throwing over what’s “addictive” would include so many more substances than are legitimately addictive it’s honestly disgusting what she’s doing, this is the kind of “expert witness” we need to be on the lookout for when watching trials Baahah okay well at least prosecution annihilated her that was satisfying and rough to watch 😂 she really just flat out made up her own conclusion outside of the DSM-5 criteria claiming that Ketamine is in fact addictive because she says so! I seriously can’t deal with the audacity of this woman..
Maya turned into Linda Blair Exorcist style when she wanted sedation😲. Today's nurse wasn't the first to note it, and everyone who saw it was just as shocked.
😂 watching these men trying to figure out emails is hilarious. Where did the Admin assistants go!!! Heaven help us. 😊😅. I love judge Carol…. He’s patiently waiting
Controlling nurses and doctors don’t like when a patient or parent knows more than they do about their own condition and medicines. Most appreciate their knowledge but the controlling ones can’t stand it.
Very VERY true. It's actually terrifying. Unfortunately, it seems to be hard for people who have never experienced it firsthand to understand that. They will when they or their child are inevitably lying in a hospital bed fighting for their lives. Smh. While I do not wish this situation on anyone, the heartless ones will face karma eventually.
@@NrsLisa they can’t order their own meds and provide their own care. Your defensiveness is a great example of the pushback and labels a patient gets if they dare assert knowledge and requests in their own care. Many nurses don’t have a power trip but a LOT do.
Beata (an infusion nurse herself) demanded a nurse 'push' Propofol, that would have been a lawsuit for medical malpractice right there. Beata also demanded Neudexta, an Alzheimer's medicine for pseudobulbar affect (uncontrollable laughter or crying). The woman was a mental patient, completely out of control, looking for "palliative care" levels of Midazolam to ease Maya's passing at home FFS.
I wish Maya was there today to show what’s beautiful strong woman she became. To also stare this woman down and make her as uncomfortable as she made Maya when she was a 10 yr old child! I’m also glad she’s taking care of her mental health by not being there if she couldn’t do so
I wish Maya was there too, to remind everyone how her “intractable” and “terminal” “CPRS” vanished as soon as mom and the Ketamine-pushing quacks were cut off. She’s by far the best evidence for the defense.
Keeps their kid in a hospital for 3 months against the parents and Mayas wished mis-treats her and abuses her, and they wanna point out she cussed. Insane. Trying to paint her in a horrible bad light, meanwhile you have nurses kissing her and stuff. Lady in the blue is a good liar. But I see right through it.
@@paulineaquilina5328Yeah sure because the dependency court, DCF and judge who ordered the shelter had nothing to do with the restrictions during Maya's admission or the length of time she was there. NONE of that was in the power of the hospital. Wake up, watch and listen!
Ok my take on the cross of Beaty the defence actually did a great job creating doubt but then the dumbasses kept objecting to Andersons questions which then raises doubt again for the plaintiff cause the jury will be going why don’t the defence want this in.
I’m leaning towards the defense on this one. I think Maya exaggerated a lot of her testimony, and yes, I watched the bias documentary on Netflix. I feel bad for the family, but I think the hospital staff was doing their job and it would be a different situation if they hadn’t. They were trying to keep Maya safe, her mother was definitely not.
Do you think it's more likely that lots of people have seen the trial, weighed the evidence, and are now moved to express their opinion that Maya was faking everything and lying on the stand... or the hospital paid people to say it? 🤔🤡
BTW, noticing the number of people commenting that the family are money-grubbing grifters but resorting to conspiracy theories, doesn't help your case😂
I’m sorry but those jury questions took up soooo much time. That was crazy. Some witnesses had 2 different sets of jury questions and that took up so much time. Ok this Levy lady is a quack. She might mean well but she is full of it. She is the type to say ALL drugs are bad. Wtf would these people expect Maya to do in times of excruciating pain?? Grin and bear it or more PT??? Wtf is wrong with these people? It worked for Maya and was the ONLY thing that worked for Maya at the time. Ketamine is a hallucinogenic. What hallucinogenic have you ever heard of someone being addicted to?? OMG Whitney, I'm crying laughing!!! She was as pink as her little room!! Ketamine is in that good ole OTHER category🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Defense didn't move a muscle during her testimony! OMG the lawyer on the defense was texting Levy as she was talking!!!!!!!! WTF??? That's what they were looking at him for!!!! If they are capable of that then they are capable of having every single one of those drs falsify their records. Idgaf what anyone says. Now we know why they couldn't find her license. The judge should have listened to the plaintiffs. They are sneaky, slimy snakes. What they did to Maya is appalling. Notice all the nurses and drs say the EXACT SAME THING?! They were all prepped and got their records together real quick. Let me guess, hers is FINALLY going to chart the cussing. The defense literally said they called Levy because the jury had questions about addiction and withdrawl and now here we are with cussing in the notes.
Arent YOU being paid for your services, time. and expertise?? This is always the dumbest question. Of course they are getting paid ..just like you are!
This question becomes relevant for witnesses like Sharon Levy, someone being paid mass amounts of money to spew utter BS to straight up lies for the defense on the stand
And guess what Nobody knows what high ketamine doses do to a child. Maya looks pretty healthy after having high doses. Ketamine is an extremely EXTREMELY safe medication.
I do think mom overstepped in areas she shouldn't have. It appears at times she worked against the doctors instead of with them. Mom brought very high energy to a situation that really should have been calm so as not to upset the child.
Beata was clearly panicked when she brought Maya to the ER, like any parent would be. I’ve dealt with nurses and doctors alike who won’t listen to you or take your pain seriously. It’s interesting the nurse didn’t take Maya saying she was in pain seriously but insists Beata was dead serious about palliative care and a Valium. I’m not buying this nurses testimony. She’s snarky and rude when being challenged by Mr. Anderson so I see no reason to believe she would have behaved differently when challenged by Beata.
They took her pain seriously. They didn't want her to die. Anderson is a tool. He is upset because he went and announced on Friday that Maya was "not good" and getting lesions. Maya went on and posted pictures in a risque costume from attending Halloween parties. Good for her!
@@shonabeggs4640 I am just shocked at the lack of common sense. Most of the claims in this case hinge on Maya's, and to some extent Jack's testimony. Maya's recollection from when she was 10 and had spent over a year heavily drugged is unreliable. Jack is well, Jack.
@@shonabeggs4640what neighbor are you talking about that they stated Baeta was a nightmare? Those who testified had a different story about this whole family.
I do not understand why you cannot tell the truth you do not work for that hospital anymore because of your actions with the Kowalski's not to mention you have already settled your lawsuit with the Kowalski's unless the hospital had you sign a confidentiality
I think the jury is ready to make John Hopkins Hospital pay. Did you know John Hopkins had to pay a $190 million dollars to victims of another employee. Sounds like the hospital hires people that are harming people and try to cover it up.
@@paulao9492 Anderson's face when the TGH neuropsychologist looked at the fake paralysis video and confirmed that it was just conversion disorder... He sat down and stared at her with a demonic menace. 🤬
Watching Anderson conduct depositions reveals why he comes off as such an incompetent boob in court; none of what he gets away with in depos is allowable in court in front of a judge - the argumentative snide remarks, testifying for the record and asking the witness to comment...but he can't figure out why he's unable to ask a proper question in front of a jury. He's absurdly incompetent to be standing up in a courtroom leading a case. He's verging on ineffective assistance of counsel.
The phenomenon of children acting different around their mother is nothing new or unique. I have 4 children and they are always different when I am around. Children feel safe around their mother and will express themselves as they are. Have you ever seen children hold their emotions together all day at school and then the minute they get to mom - they lose their mind and let out all the feels of the day. It’s totally normal behavior of a mom/child relationship
Also I was just at a Dr appt with my 17 year old and when the Dr asked how she had been feeling the answer was “fine”- then I interjected and said actually she has complained of nausea and headaches for 3 weeks - then the child remembered and said oh yeah - I forgot about those symptoms.
Yes! Cuz mom knows. My mom always told the Dr what was going on. I almost never showed pain to strangers but she KNOWS me.
completely agree. Even mom v dad, I was always more vulnerable with my mom because I knew she'd get it, or make it it better. The hospital trying to vilify that point in every way is just vile.
It is abundantly clear that the staff’s main goal was to punish Beata, rather than help or ‘save’ Maya. Maya was their weapon of punishment. Beady and Smith tag teamed to drive Beata into the ground. If their focus was really Maya, she would have had daily intensive therapy 1) to determine if their suspicions were correct, 2) to help a child psychologically through a forced separation from her family. Disgusting and I’m glad the family was awarded what they were. I hope it survives all appeals.
That county had the highest rate of M.B.P in the entire us we find after the trial. It was a Dr. who saw the same pattern very frequently, but it was all in her head. I read the numbers, and was blown away by those numbers. Outrageous what this organization has done.
Really?! Where did you see that? I believe it but I want to see that!
@@mandi4794 it was after the verdict was read and when the lawyers were making their case about punitive damage amounts.
When the nurse said "We dont lie to patients, we are very transparent to patients", the red flags went up. This testimony was presented well but had a clear narrative for the defence. Nurse could remember every detail of conversations with Beata and Maya (obviously in times of distress) but didn't seem to recall any conversations with anyone else, let alone who was present.
You could have just said "She works for the hospital, I hate her" and saved yourself some typing 🤦♂️
Agree
Her focus those two nights was on HER PATIENT, so that's what she remembered well...NOT all the other people briefly in & out of the room. Don't forget, this happened more than seven years ago, and it was only two nights...I doubt I'd be able to remember every employee who was there, or what they said, especially if they were just quickly in & out doing routine tasks.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.and you could have just said “I believe everything anyone from the hospital says, without question” but here we are 😪
WRT Bedy- during Maya interaction w/ lawyer, Bedy said door had to remain open so they could hear due to fall risk. But she then said she couldn't have listened in as nurse station to far away. If staff can't hear to monitor for fall risk, what purpose served by leaving door open?
To prevent her from pretending to fall like she did the first time. She'd be less inclined to lie if there was a chance someone could see her...

That's because he has nothing, he was more uncomfortable to watch today than usual. If that's even possible.

@@MadisonMadison-dl2hv sorry? could you say that again please?
@@Silly.Old.Sisyphusha ha 😂.
I'm sorry but if Maya was actually faking all of this and she was told she was going to miss CHRISTMAS AND HER B-DAY, I wholeheartedly believe she would have said "OK I'm faking, I made it all up for attention, let me go home" I just can't see a child going along with all of these medical procedures if she was making it up!!??? There's just NO WAY! And I also don't believe she was cussing and screaming unless she was in pain and even then I find it hard to believe.
I think she was trapped in the lie, to admit she was faking it all would condemn her mother outright, confirming all the suspicions JHACH had about Beata.
Beata admitted she put her child in a 5 day coma, with a coin-toss risk of death, she would not have been able to get away with pretending that Maya had "fooled" her.
That's probably what finished Beata off, she knew the jig was up, and she was going to be exposed and lose everything.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.it’s like you haven’t watched any of this trial.
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.dude when your child is in pain and doctors are not doing anything about it, you might go to different lengths to get help, my grandma was getting sick and very badly and the doctors were going to charge her insane amounts of money to treat the sickness but only temporarily, my mom found a product from Mexico that wasn’t fda approved and guess what? It healed my grandma, it’s all about money to these people, once you get that you’ll understand, I came here after watching the documentary and John Hopkins practically made fraud to the insurance companies as they were charging them for the very illness they were so desperately denying, if they didn’t believe in the illness why were they charging the insurance company for it? Oh that’s right MONEY
@@WahrheitMachtFrei. The fact that Beata put her daughter in the coma should tell you she would have done ANYTHING to get her daughter out of excruciating pain! Did you watch any of this trial?

There was no "jig" to be up, her daughter was suffering every day in a hospital that had just had her taken from her and was being accused of heinous things when all she wanted was her daughter HELPED NOT HARMED FURTHER!!

I'm not clear on why any doctor or nurse is surprised or shocked by a 10 year old in pain and on a load of meds might curse or scream. My 8 year old got really mad and shouted and cursed at me. Yes, it was totally inappropriate and he was "redirected" with his language, but kids do know those words and their affects.

Maya liked all these people, including bedy. She was being disingenuous when she claimed she fabricated her journal in some bizarre attempt to manipulate them into letting her go. And all these minor incidents are nonsense. They didn't strip her naked. She was wearing shorts and a training bra which exposed about as much as her pt video outfit. They gave her some dresses, but hid one in some sort of show of control? She was crying her eyes out and, rather than hug her, bedy was supposed to say, "stop. don't come any closer. I'm not allowed to hug you". The plaintiffs have built up bedy as a monster, and yet the voice recording they played over and over isn't even her. Bedy seems pretty low key and normal. The woman monitoring the call seemed nice; mindful that she was talking to a child.

If Ketamine is so addictive, where are all these ketamine addicts, then? We've all heard about the opioid epidemic and the meth addicts all over the place. There has never been a "ketamine epidemic." I've never even heard of any Ketamine addicts & I'm a Social Worker who encounters meth addicts all the time! If Ketamine were something ppl got addicted to, surely I would have met someone addicted to it in the last 20 years working with the public.
I've heard of it used in 2 ways: (1) The only effective solution for treatment-resistant Depression currently known to Psychiatrists, and (2) a party drug in street form known as Special K that, much like Shrooms, Ecstacy, and Acid are used occasionally, rather than daily. No one is addicted to "party drugs" or uses them daily, which is why they're known as "party drugs" - while Marijuana, Heroin, and Meth are not.
Levy was truly discredited. It was clear the Defense gave her a summary of what info she would need to testify to, because she repetitively said, "I didn't have that information...I wasn't aware of that..." She reviewed just a small portion of the info & cannot, therefore, opine about what would be necessary or effective for a 10-year-old girl with CRPS.
3 CRPS specialists and 2 mental health practitioners believed the Ketamine treatments were appropriate & beneficial for Maya. This lady would not be involved in the hearing were she not contracted for $450/hr or $10,000 over 4 years. How much weight should we really give her?
@@cjo7277 She was exactly the same, you projected what you wanted to see and the depo editing allowed you to think the worst. The truth was plain to see, Maya obviously liked her, asked her for comfort, even.

I don’t believe Maya, I haven’t since after first few days. They are complaining about normal pt complaints… bad food, terrible toilet paper soap etc…, waiting for a nurse. They r seriously nitpicking and it’s not much considering she was there for almost 3 months. Oooh and low and behold, hmmm I saw TWO red dresses that were ‘taken and not given / lost’ by Bedy, she’s wearing both in two different photos. Then Anderson starts asking, where is the blue and cream dress? Seriously…… now it’s a blue and cream DRESS! Get over it, buy a new one. I think maya was craving attention from her mother and was trying to complain and crab about anything and everything. I think she’s way to spoiled, and what parent allows a 9 yr old to wear makeup and SHAVE LEGS? At 9!! I don’t think so!
@@ThatRedhedd The issue at hand is high dose ketamine. The hospital was willing to use low dose, to an extent. High dose ketamine is extremely dangerous due to depressed breathing. The 'experts' only get paid if they diagnose and treat crps or another chronic pain syndrome. The hospital doctors get paid regardless. If there were any peer reviewed studies that showed high dose ketamine as significantly improving pain management or functionality for an extended period of time, it would be standard practice. As for risk management, once maya claimed to fall and beata started yelling and demanding, any hospital would include risk management in all decisions.
I agree with the defense here. The families attorneys did not use their time wisely, and to ask the defense to cut there case short is unfair.

9:45:48 Plaintiff lawyer is clearly suffering from Factitious Litigation Disorder by Proxy, with poor old Jack (ie, soon to be poor old Jack, with Jackall left in his pocket after he loses his shirt) as the witless Proxy, so to save the jury from a nightmare headache of 6 more months going in circles, the jury instruction should be: "Members of the jury, this case is totally forked. Go home, do not discuss the case, do not watch Netflix ever again, and if anyone approaches you about the case, knee them in the bolix".
1:36:38 - So, when totally normal procedures are "requested by doctors for perfectly valid medical reasons," what's the reason that (1) Risk Management is consulted about them beforehand, suggesting the social worker & a 2nd person do them together and (2) the products & outcomes of the procedures aren't put into or documented within the medical files?
If Ketamine is so addictive, where are all these ketamine addicts, then? We've all heard about the opioid epidemic and the meth addicts all over the place. There has never been a "ketamine epidemic." I've never even heard of any Ketamine addicts & I'm a Social Worker who encounters meth addicts all the time! If Ketamine were something ppl got addicted to, surely I would have met someone addicted to it in the last 20 years working with the public.
I've heard of it used in 2 ways: (1) The only effective solution for treatment-resistant Depression currently known to Psychiatrists, and (2) a party drug in street form known as Special K that, much like Shrooms, Ecstacy, and Acid are used occasionally, rather than daily. No one is addicted to "party drugs" or uses them daily, which is why they're known as "party drugs" - while Marijuana, Heroin, and Meth are not.
Levy was truly discredited. It was clear the Defense gave her a summary of what info she would need to testify to, because she repetitively said, "I didn't have that information...I wasn't aware of that..." She reviewed just a small portion of the info & cannot, therefore, opine about what would be necessary or effective for a 10-year-old girl with CRPS.
3 CRPS specialists and 2 mental health practitioners believed the Ketamine treatments were appropriate & beneficial for Maya. This lady would not be involved in the hearing were she not contracted for $450/hr or $10,000 over 4 years. How much weight should we really give her?
@@ThatRedheddWhy are you spamming the exact same comment over and over.
love this!
The USA TODAY Network reviewed hundreds of Smith’s cases in conjunction with a multi-part investigation into Florida’s child welfare system to be published in coming months. It found more than a dozen instances where charges were dropped, parents were acquitted or caregivers had credible claims of innocence yet suffered irredeemable damage to their lives and reputations.
yup
If you believe the defense witnesses then you have to believe that every one of the plaintiffs witnesses lied on the stand. Some of whom did not exactly help the plaintiff’s case.
Either the defense witnesses lied, or the plaintiffs. But the defense witnesses testimonies actually matched the evidence, and reports that were taken at the time of the events. Plus all of these doctors and nurses from separate facilities all had similar encounters with beata and Maya, and they were always erratic, and beata demanding obscene amounts of drugs for her 9yr old, under weight daughter.
WRT Bedy, she stated numerous times prior and today initially that Risk Mgt required photos, and DCF not involved. Then by end, she suddenly stated she clearly remembered asking DCF.
Anderson wants his "gotcha" moment and she didn't provide. Tired of his approach
You really wonder if he even has a plan in his head before he goes in...
If he's PLANNING it, and still sounding this incompetent and buffoonish 🤷♂️
So tired of it...and his little lacky Whitney is employee all the same tactics.
What a difference in Kathy Bedy after getting coached by the defense attorney.
I don't think it was coaching. I think the plaintiff did snippets of her depo to make her look bad.
It’s a game and Beatie won that round.
Agreed Sherrie...
There have been a few witnesses that have changed their tone of voice on the stand.
@MadisonMadison-dl2hv too late. Juror doesn't believe her.
Years of getting prepared but she still comes across as being untruthful.
Great real time documentation by nurse Thacher! Most nurses hate charting b/c it takes extra time and mental energy to record a word picture for others to read. Those direct quotes and specific examples were priceless, I just wish those notes would have been read out loud b/c it would have a greater impact on the jury.
I bet all hospitals going forward will hammer on it now, for this exact reason.
So glad to know Dr Sally Smith and her employer, Suncoast Advocacy Services, had to payout for their guilty actions.
They saved Mayas life; look into it a bit more before commenting
They settled and admitted no guilt
@@Nick2bad4uJohn Hopkins not settling so why Dr Smith and her employer settle for millions. Guilty, guilty, guilty.
@@Jessica-hk5qtI thought they argued she was faking it while filing fraudulent insurance claims. Corruption at it finest.
Payout of 2.5m is not an admission of guilt. Made kowalskis look desperate.
And that one nurse, in the blue blazer, I didn't get her name, but I would be proud to work along side of her anyday. That is a nurse who stands up for her patients and advocates for them! I wonder how many people watching this trial could do the job that medical professionals do, see what they see, deal with abusive families etc, She has dealt with dying children. Maya was not terminal. And that was offensive to parents who actually had to put their children on hospice because they truly were terminal. God bless that nurse. Anderson met his match.
Her testimony was stable, consistent and credible. Mr Anderson could not break her.
@MadisonMadison-dl2hv It was amazing. It had to come to a head at some point, and she did it. I love people like her! That is one strong woman who stands by her convictions. She was very credible and caring. I think even the jury saw it by their questions. Mic drop moment.
@@kimyoung2447disclosure of hospice was frightening.
@@MadisonMadison-dl2hv Beata had "palliative care" levels of Midazolam lined up to ease Maya's passing at home.
The hospital stepped in just in time to save her life.
@MadisonMadison-dl2hv It gave me chills and it still does. I just can't even imagine. Olivia Gant's mother put her in hospice, and she died of starvation at seven years old without even being sick. It was the saddest case I've ever heard about. JHACH Took Care of Maya!
I find it very concerning that the jury is limited in the amount of time to come up with a decision, if im understanding what im hearing correctly.
It did sound like there was a little bit of pressure being put on them. Or I might have heard it wrong as well.
The judge said they'll come back into next week if they can't decide by end of play Thursday.
It's because a juror had a prior engagement but could sit now. It was talked about at the start. He said he would accommodate the jury.
There’s no limit, the judge advised the jury of this at the conclusion of their day at approx timestamp 7:45:00 & that the jury is expected to receive the case Tues 7th Nov or Wed 8th Nov
The Judge is out the week after next, he’s pushing for a verdict before he goes away
oh my.. when you think Anderson is a bad speaker and then comes Dr. Levy. I bet she is an expert and truly knows, what she is talking about, but the presentation of her knowledge could be slightly better 😬😱
Yes she could have been so strong
Someone should do a welfare check on her, she died a death up there.
TBH, I feel like I could have done a better job fielding the questions about the K-Quacks and their infusion levels. The defence really dropped the ball by not prepping her better. Inexcusable.
I think she was seriously nervous and she literally overthinks every single word, cause she wants to be super precise. @@WahrheitMachtFrei.
yes! I agree. It is simply sad! @@WahrheitMachtFrei.
Tables are turning
I find myself forwarding over and through Dr. Levy’s cross examination. I truly do like Mr. Whitney but feel sorry for her; it’s painful.
That was proof, if it were needed, that Whitney should have been running this case with Ms Lawrence, and Anderson should have been allocated the coffee run.
That cross was like a surgical dissection by a world-class surgeon.
She was utterly unprepared and could not have looked worse if she tried, but if it were Anderson asking the questions, she might have come out on top 😂
Painful is to pay 450/h for her knowledge regarding that case. It’s serious and god how ignorant you have to be to not be prepared for that. it was pathetic
@@joannatomaszewskayes she got absolutely cooked. Same one-sided, blind thinking that got the hospital in trouble. Didn't know anything about the case or Maya.
Wow it was extremely painful. The amount of money the defense spent on her is ridiculous. She sounded very incompetent. You could feel her pain it was so transparent.
I couldn’t watch it with her lip smacking before every answer 🥴
Nurse Thatcher did an excellent job of explaining what she was doing for Maya and why she was doing it...and why certain things couldn't be done. She is obviously very experienced and concerned for her patient's safety.
Yes!
the nurse needs to take lessons on answering JUST the question in simple terms. The extra filler and body language is condescending
That woman felt wronged and she played the long and the short game to get retribution on this family. She's someone who enjoys fighting. It's her thing.
1:16:11
So you were right outside the door... that was open, WITH HER ATTORNEY PRESENT, when I'm sure he wouldn't have let her fall and if she had fit some crazy reason, gotten her help. The fact that she was about to listen (which she clearly was), is wrong on so many levels. She deserved to have privacy with her attorney.
Hi Goose🌹🌹
How are you doing?
Delusional
And she also admitted that she was in the chapel when Maya was in there with her lawyer. She didn’t need to be in there listening.
Excellent, Nurse Thatcher. Best witness the defense has put on.
As a kid or even an adult, we remember things not exactly as they happened. Maya was on meds, she was 10, think about how you remember things and if you’re positive that’s the way it really happened????
More positive if youve got dad asking for 220 mil based on how bad it was for you at the hospital, despite being in mortal danger at home, dad didnt protect her from Beata did he
Considering the history of the hospital and bad employees they had to settle a class action lawsuit for $190 million in another case. And they still continue harmful acts costing them millions already.
More sad the different employees can't even agree what happened. Means some of the employees are lying.
We remember the gist. We remember how it felt.
@@Jessica-hk5qt Yep, what's asking your daughter to blatantly perjure herself for hours on the stand when there's $200mil on the line...?
If that was the voice of the third party social service agent, that was not anywhere near Maya, how would she know to tell Maya to tell her mom about the shopkins?
I’m so confused why the nurse had such a huge change in her demeanor from the defenses questioning to the plaintiff’s. She clearly came in and was told what to focus on! She sure made sure to tell the jury over and over how uncooperative Maya and Biata were and to tell the jury that Maya cussed people out and screamed at people. It’s so interesting how many people testified about how sweet and quiet Maya was. It just doesn’t make sense. Maybe it was because this is the treatment Maya and Biata received by this lady. No wonder Biata was so frustrated! Lol
If she got this nurse the Plaintiff just interviewed who is rude and condescending and who knows EVERYTHING until it’s convenient for her not to know EVERYTHING! I would have acted out too! Just saying!
Remember that this nurse took care of Maya very early in her hospital stay, when her pain was at its very worst & the ICU team was still trying to get it under control...so it makes sense that she would be acting really upset during this time. I think the reports of her being quiet & sweet were from later on, once her pain was under a little better control.
@@katey614 But her pain was never really under control. She was wasting away and had stopped telling people because they were telling her she was crazy and didn't have it!
@@rachelb4235so heartbreaking!
This attorney from hospital discussing closing instructions is a bumbling mess! So ridiculous!
He knew his stuff though, comprehensively. Put the Judge to rights numerous times.
He belongs in a rocking chair next to the female defence lawyer in some Nursing Home. 🤣
How is the hospital not committing insurance fraud by continuing billing for services they believed was fake?
Because billing in a medical setting is very complicated and you often bill diagnoses from other drs
@brendab2946 didn't they acknowledge they believe she was faking it and now say treating her for CPS? They took Maya away from parents on basis she was faking it. They billed over 500K for something they did not believe.
Because it was thrown out already by the judge due to no evidence and it was not billed for mainly lol
@@rncgsuDon't you listen to the evidence being presented?. Since she was sheltered at the hospital *by dcf* JHACH treated her as she was admitted. They didn't carry out investigations into her illness, they treated her as they and every other hospital would any other patient with a diagnosis (not made by them) of CRPS. That is pain medication, OT , PT, CBT and room and board!. It's not difficult to understand, if you listen.
Valium is a good muscle relaxer which reduces pain.
Strange how she could remember everything for the defense but when Plantiff attorney questioned her she couldn't recall. Liar.😊
Exactly!
Because she IS one big LIE period.
Lol ya that's lying...what ? These comments lol
It’s almost like she was coached by the defense or something? 🤯Not like every other JH witness, no, no! It is funny how all the JH witnesses so far have been deceitful and done backbends to swerve around giving direct answers to the prosecution and after this long, one witness takes the stand who isn’t immediately shady and everyone thinks she’s Mother Teresa by comparison 😅
The only lies told were from the Kowalskis side
They are all absolute liars when they say they do not document erratic behavior in their charts.
I'm so surprised the jury didn't see through this family's scam. Wow. 260 million dollars. They did not have nearly a solid enough case for that ridiculous amount.
Mr Anderson uses the ‘Illusory Truth Effect’ throughout this trial.
ILLUSORY TRUTH EFFECT: the tendency to believe false information to be correct after repeated exposure
ANDERSON will walk into a mistrial which I believe the defense wants. Listen to stream at 7.58 when judge reverses his own order of 59 hrs per side and the deal between plaintiff and defense. very intense. They know he cant keep from commenting and it will be a mistrial
This hospital is so corrput. Saying Maya was faking it to take child away from parents then billing insurance company for CPS. Medical insurance and wire fraud.

I hate that Beata is not able to testify to her own actions and statements. I'm surprised that the NP is able to provide testimony as to what someone else said to her. With Maya not in the courtroom and Beata gone, doesn't that qualify as hearsay?
Nurse in blue blazer stated her and Beata were working together on defence questions then stated on recross that there was no talking to Beata. 🤷♀️

It is illegal to take half naked photos of a child and no court would allow that unless an autopsy was made and the photos would be under seal. It doesn’t matter who they say consented.

WOW yea hi I’m also someone who’s worked in the substance use disorder field and Sharon Levy is being WILDLY misleading about “addictions” and is explaining them only in a way that could include Ketamine. The net she is throwing over what’s “addictive” would include so many more substances than are legitimately addictive it’s honestly disgusting what she’s doing, this is the kind of “expert witness” we need to be on the lookout for when watching trials

Controlling nurses and doctors don’t like when a patient or parent knows more than they do about their own condition and medicines.
Most appreciate their knowledge but the controlling ones can’t stand it.
Very VERY true. It's actually terrifying. Unfortunately, it seems to be hard for people who have never experienced it firsthand to understand that. They will when they or their child are inevitably lying in a hospital bed fighting for their lives. Smh. While I do not wish this situation on anyone, the heartless ones will face karma eventually.
@@NrsLisa they can’t order their own meds and provide their own care.
Your defensiveness is a great example of the pushback and labels a patient gets if they dare assert knowledge and requests in their own care. Many nurses don’t have a power trip but a LOT do.
Especially when the parent of the patient has grave intentions ~ pun intended.
Beata (an infusion nurse herself) demanded a nurse 'push' Propofol, that would have been a lawsuit for medical malpractice right there. Beata also demanded Neudexta, an Alzheimer's medicine for pseudobulbar affect (uncontrollable laughter or crying).
The woman was a mental patient, completely out of control, looking for "palliative care" levels of Midazolam to ease Maya's passing at home FFS.

I wish Maya was there too, to remind everyone how her “intractable” and “terminal” “CPRS” vanished as soon as mom and the Ketamine-pushing quacks were cut off. She’s by far the best evidence for the defense.
She's too busy grifting
Try to face the bully having PTSD !
Keeps their kid in a hospital for 3 months against the parents and Mayas wished mis-treats her and abuses her, and they wanna point out she cussed. Insane. Trying to paint her in a horrible bad light, meanwhile you have nurses kissing her and stuff. Lady in the blue is a good liar. But I see right through it.
@@NrsLisaare you kidding all these people were on a power trip they destroy families and leave carnage
you are watching a different trial@@paulineaquilina5328
@@treasurz1 One screen, two movies. There's no reasoning with them... 🤷♂️
@@WahrheitMachtFrei.👏
@@paulineaquilina5328Yeah sure because the dependency court, DCF and judge who ordered the shelter had nothing to do with the restrictions during Maya's admission or the length of time she was there. NONE of that was in the power of the hospital. Wake up, watch and listen!
Ok my take on the cross of Beaty the defence actually did a great job creating doubt but then the dumbasses kept objecting to Andersons questions which then raises doubt again for the plaintiff cause the jury will be going why don’t the defence want this in.
Their objections were more about Anderson's approach...not necessarily that they were hiding something...Anderson's tactics are so nasty.
She never asked for comfort from a nurse she didn't like...who puts a child on her lap when it happens that quick
Promising a drug as a surprise thats disturbing.
I’m leaning towards the defense on this one. I think Maya exaggerated a lot of her testimony, and yes, I watched the bias documentary on Netflix. I feel bad for the family, but I think the hospital staff was doing their job and it would be a different situation if they hadn’t. They were trying to keep Maya safe, her mother was definitely not.
👏👏👏. Hospital social media keyboard warriors…you are really active! are you paid by the hour? 🤣
Do you think it's more likely that lots of people have seen the trial, weighed the evidence, and are now moved to express their opinion that Maya was faking everything and lying on the stand... or the hospital paid people to say it? 🤔🤡
BTW, noticing the number of people commenting that the family are money-grubbing grifters but resorting to conspiracy theories, doesn't help your case😂
Dr levy just blew it for the defense 😂
You already played guilty to their attorneys and you already settled out of court
I’m sorry but those jury questions took up soooo much time. That was crazy. Some witnesses had 2 different sets of jury questions and that took up so much time. Ok this Levy lady is a quack. She might mean well but she is full of it. She is the type to say ALL drugs are bad. Wtf would these people expect Maya to do in times of excruciating pain?? Grin and bear it or more PT??? Wtf is wrong with these people? It worked for Maya and was the ONLY thing that worked for Maya at the time. Ketamine is a hallucinogenic. What hallucinogenic have you ever heard of someone being addicted to?? OMG Whitney, I'm crying laughing!!! She was as pink as her little room!! Ketamine is in that good ole OTHER category🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Defense didn't move a muscle during her testimony! OMG the lawyer on the defense was texting Levy as she was talking!!!!!!!! WTF??? That's what they were looking at him for!!!! If they are capable of that then they are capable of having every single one of those drs falsify their records. Idgaf what anyone says. Now we know why they couldn't find her license. The judge should have listened to the plaintiffs. They are sneaky, slimy snakes. What they did to Maya is appalling. Notice all the nurses and drs say the EXACT SAME THING?! They were all prepped and got their records together real quick. Let me guess, hers is FINALLY going to chart the cussing. The defense literally said they called Levy because the jury had questions about addiction and withdrawl and now here we are with cussing in the notes.
Bedy showed her true colours when she rolled her eyes eyes at plaintiff lawyer @ 2:15
Arent YOU being paid for your services, time. and expertise?? This is always the dumbest question. Of course they are getting paid ..just like you are!
This question becomes relevant for witnesses like Sharon Levy, someone being paid mass amounts of money to spew utter BS to straight up lies for the defense on the stand
That lawyer is not good!
Hes all over the place!!!!!
the dates do not matter! what high doses of ketamine do to a child is what matters. goddess, the plaintiff's attorneys are sooo cheap!
The hospital gave her physicodic drugs and opiates. People die from opiates.
And guess what Nobody knows what high ketamine doses do to a child. Maya looks pretty healthy after having high doses. Ketamine is an extremely EXTREMELY safe medication.
nobody knows. so let's do it? Nobody knows is a pro defense argument. @@MandyAltamirano
I do think mom overstepped in areas she shouldn't have. It appears at times she worked against the doctors instead of with them. Mom brought very high energy to a situation that really should have been calm so as not to upset the child.
Hospital claimed she didn't have CPS then took child away from parents then billed insurance for CPS. Seems like medical fraud
That’s all she’s guilty of that doesn’t excuse how the hospital responded to her.
She actually instructed the child to demand Ketomine.
@@Estimator00only because she thought ketamene was the only thing to stop her pain....
@@Gabriel-hf1yy yeah she was proven wrong
Beata was clearly panicked when she brought Maya to the ER, like any parent would be. I’ve dealt with nurses and doctors alike who won’t listen to you or take your pain seriously. It’s interesting the nurse didn’t take Maya saying she was in pain seriously but insists Beata was dead serious about palliative care and a Valium. I’m not buying this nurses testimony. She’s snarky and rude when being challenged by Mr. Anderson so I see no reason to believe she would have behaved differently when challenged by Beata.
They took her pain seriously. They didn't want her to die. Anderson is a tool. He is upset because he went and announced on Friday that Maya was "not good" and getting lesions. Maya went on and posted pictures in a risque costume from attending Halloween parties. Good for her!
Everyone who met beata claimed she was a nightmare, even their neighbour.
@@shonabeggs4640 I am just shocked at the lack of common sense. Most of the claims in this case hinge on Maya's, and to some extent Jack's testimony. Maya's recollection from when she was 10 and had spent over a year heavily drugged is unreliable. Jack is well, Jack.
@@shonabeggs4640what neighbor are you talking about that they stated Baeta was a nightmare? Those who testified had a different story about this whole family.
I do not understand why you cannot tell the truth you do not work for that hospital anymore because of your actions with the Kowalski's not to mention you have already settled your lawsuit with the Kowalski's unless the hospital had you sign a confidentiality
Awesome job to nurse thatcher her personality is that of an ICU charge nurse 100%. Her expertise is exemplary and Mr Anderson should be ashamed
That nurse was biased.
Anderson isn't capable of shame, if he was, he'd have died of shame due to his absurdly incompetent performance in court...
Maya's lawyer - shaking my head. He may cost the Kowalski's this trial.
I think the jury is ready to make John Hopkins Hospital pay. Did you know John Hopkins had to pay a $190 million dollars to victims of another employee. Sounds like the hospital hires people that are harming people and try to cover it up.
Anderson was so red in the face as the nurse walked off the stand I thought he was going to explode!
@@paulao9492 Anderson's face when the TGH neuropsychologist looked at the fake paralysis video and confirmed that it was just conversion disorder... He sat down and stared at her with a demonic menace. 🤬
@@paulao9492Love itttttt!!!!!
I love it too. Anderson is an a$$hole.
Watching Anderson conduct depositions reveals why he comes off as such an incompetent boob in court; none of what he gets away with in depos is allowable in court in front of a judge - the argumentative snide remarks, testifying for the record and asking the witness to comment...but he can't figure out why he's unable to ask a proper question in front of a jury.
He's absurdly incompetent to be standing up in a courtroom leading a case.
He's verging on ineffective assistance of counsel.
Anderson I so bad 😢😢😢😢
