The Justice Department is seeking data about “orders which may have resulted in the deaths of thousands of elderly nursing home residents,” sending letters Wednesday to the governors of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan.
Officials say Wednesday that the Justice Department’s civil rights division is evaluating whether to initiate investigations under a federal law that protects the rights of people in state-run nursing homes and other facilities.
Prosecutors are trying to determine whether state orders requiring admission of COVID-19 patients to nursing homes could have led to deaths.
Assistant Attorney General Eric Dreiband says the federal government must ensure vulnerable nursing home patients “are adequately cared for with dignity and respect and not unnecessarily put at risk.”
Nursing home worker Molly Brechtel of Erie, Pa. stands in front of over 3,400 tea lights on the steps of the state capitol in Harrisburg to represent the women and men who have died of COVID-19 in PA nursing homes. The event was part of a National Nursing Home Day of Action. June 18, 2020
Pennsylvania Ping!
Please ping me with articles of interest.
FReepmail me to be added to the list.
Go for it, Gretchen, justify your illegal crap and nursing home murders.
Up till now Wolf’s Tranny has been playing a shell game with COVID data. Let’s see if it has the guts to continue playing those games with the Feds.
68% of deaths in PA were in nursing homes.
Barred people from visiting their dying loved ones.
New York will be very interesting since Cuomo started the trend. That jerk has been boasting about how well he handled COVID
A friend’s father is a victim of Levine and Wolf’s murderous actions.
He and thousands of others.
and the aforementioned Health Secretary pulled it’s own mother out of a nursing home as all of that was going on
Bkmk.
It’s about f-in time.
But...but...”Don’t Call Me Dick” Levine said that it was solely his mother’s decision to leave!
I know of one person that didn’t die in nursing home.
Did other mothers ask to leave? And if so were they permitted to do so? I guess the FBI is going to find out.
Good! Put Cuomo at the top of the list since he’s already said he’s against any such investigation. He knows he’s on the hook for a whole lot of manslaughter claims. I hope the families sue him for every dime he has right as the DoJ is hauling him off to prison for his role in all this.
68% in PA. The vast majority of those were in the wealthy SE corner of the state from Harrisburg to Philly.
Wolf = Killer
Debbie downers.
Yup.
A Killer Wolf...
...and Dr. Dickless.
What a winning combination.
