The estate of Jeremy Parker last week sued the anti-vaccination, right-wing group America's Frontline Doctors for alleged wrongful death. Dr. Medina Culver, an osteopathic physician and Instagram influencer based in Henderson, Nevada, is also named in the case. The lawsuit alleges negligence by the group and Culver for the death of Parker last year. "Based on information provided by America's Frontline Doctors, Mr. Parker became convinced, along with several of his co-workers, that hydroxychloroquine was an effective treatment for COVID-19," the suit alleges. "On or about August 26, 2021, Mr. Parker had a telemedicine visit with Dr. Culver, at which time Dr. Culver prescribed Mr. Parker with hydroxychloroquine and/or ivermectin for COVID-19 treatment or 'preventative therapy.' Dr. Culver never performed a physical examination of Mr. Parker." According to the suit, Parker developed cold-like symptoms in late January of 2022. His body was found Feb. 3, 2022. The Washoe County coroner listed Parker's cause of death as "sudden in the setting of therapeutic use of hydroxychloroquine."

Low staffing levels and political agendas are two problems within the Reno Police Department. That’s according to concerns identified by community members and RPD employees in two recent surveys conducted as part of a search for the department’s new chief. The surveys were developed and analyzed by Ralph Andersen, an executive search firm tasked with helping to replace Chief Jason Soto, who is set to retire in January 2023. The internal department survey included responses from 128 of RPD’s staff – officers, command staff and civilians. It revealed that employees have mixed feelings about the department, with some citing low morale, burnout and staffing shortages.

Multiple phones were recording video of members of Reno’s Sikh community frolicking in May with sex workers in Costa Rica. But only one person is being sued for sharing video of plaintiffs Ranbir Chhina, Navdeep Singh, Kewal Singh, Opinder Dhillon and Amandeep Singh engaging in “adult entertainment.” Nic Palmer of the Laub & Laub law firm recently filed a lawsuit against Parminder Walia for sharing videos of the group partying with prostitutes in the Central American country. The plaintiffs are claiming an intrusion of privacy. “The Plaintiffs are business owners and belong to the Sikh Community, which is a conservative religion,” Palmer wrote. “The Plaintiff [sic] have suffered social and financial consequences due to the Defendants actions of posting the videos online.” One of the plaintiffs, Kewal Singh Sekhon, was president of Reno’s Sikh Temple. Another was a member, according to a court document in the case that cited an article by Rajan Zed in 2012 published on This Is Reno. “I sent the videos to the group of ten Sikhs to show that American Sikhs, despite the conservative values of Sikhism, know how to party and have a good time,” Walia said in a sworn statement filed in Washoe County’s Second Judicial District Court.

This Is Reno is suing the city of Reno and Reno Police Department for failing to follow the Nevada Public Records Act. The suit alleges continued violations of state records law, including failing to follow mandated deadlines and not providing reasonable estimates as to when records will be made public. Examples include the city closing records requests without ever providing records and making requesters wait more than a year for records, including body cam footage. It’s the second lawsuit filed by the news media outlet against the city.

Nevada Governor candidate and far-right conspiracy theorist Joey Gilbert last year threatened to sue the Great Basin Youth Soccer League in an 11-page letter. He demanded the league fire volunteers, accused the league of unlawful behavior by enforcing state mask mandates and said the league violating the Nuremberg Code of Ethics by alleging it was conducting research involving human subjects. The page-and-a-half response, by the League's attorney, Theodore Chrissinger, is savage. "Your letter does not identify your client," Chrissinger wrote. "Your letter does not identify any breach of contract, tort, crime, or other actionable conduct. I am uncertain why you refer to Dr. Mengele, the Nuremberg Code, or medical 'experimentation.' GBYSL has not mandated any medical experimentation." The threat went nowhere.

Washoe County District Court Judge Kathleen Drakulich this week awarded costs and attorney fees to This Is Reno in its public records lawsuit against the Reno Police Department. Last year, This Is Reno sued RPD for failing to follow Nevada public records laws. Drakulich partially agreed. She said RPD failed to respond to a number of This Is Reno’s public records orders within the time frame required by law – up to seven months in one case. Drakulich, however, said RPD properly denied the release of documents relevant to open investigations. She also said RPD can continue to redact officer faces from body worn cameras, a practice This Is Reno attempted to challenge. Body cam redaction policies are inconsistently applied in Nevada. Most other states in the country do not redact officer faces, a point the Reno city attorney said was irrelevant. In Nevada, some law enforcement entities are redacting officer faces from videos. That includes the back of officer heads, in RPD’s case. The reason for the redactions, according to the Reno city attorney: The law prohibits the release of an officer’s photograph to the public unless the officer gives permission for the release.

James Fleming, who is being sued by his former employer, Community Health Alliance, fired back at the health nonprofit in court filings last week. He denies wrongdoing and accuses CHA of interfering with the federal investigation into Fleming’s allegations that CHA committed fraud. Fleming responded to the complaint Feb. 4 after CHA applied for a temporary protective order seeking to prevent Fleming from talking about CHA negatively. CHA also filed an amended complaint that removed most mentions of Reno City Council member, also CHA’s CEO, Oscar Delgado.

Community Health Alliance executives filed a lawsuit last week in district court demanding a former employee stop speaking negatively of the non-profit health provider. CHA also filed a temporary protective order against the employee to prevent him from divulging what they said is confidential information. Jim Fleming, the employee, said he is preparing to fight the claims and has received assistance from the ACLU of Nevada. Fleming, CHA’s former statistician, has publicly alleged CHA CEO Oscar Delgado, also a Reno City Council member, was knowledgeable about and allowed fraud and the misuse of grant funds. Fleming posts detailed allegations against CHA and its executives on Facebook, LinkedIn and his Medium account. “Data show that Community Health Alliance severely underperformed in its contractual duties relative to the funds it received from the state of Nevada,” Fleming recently wrote on Facebook. “Even worse, in an attempt to demonstrate costs that would justify continued state contracts at their current levels, CHA deliberately falsified employment records. These employee records were used to bolster the full-time equivalent (FTE) tally, and therefore the costs, that were dedicated to the program in 2020.” The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General is investigating Fleming’s claim he filed last year. He filed the complaint with the federal agency saying he was fired by CHA in retaliation after he raised concerns about the nonprofit’s practices.

The attempt to fire longtime college math professor Lars Jensen by Truckee Meadows Community College administrators failed last year. This week, Jensen filed a lawsuit against five TMCC administrators and Nevada System of Higher Education Chancellor Melody Rose. Prior to filing the lawsuit, and after a committee of TMCC employees recommended President Karin Hilgersom not fire him, Jensen’s attempt at a mediation was rebuffed, he said in December. “After having agreed to mediation on Dec 9 on my EEOC complaint against TMCC for retaliation and discrimination, TMCC has suddenly cancelled mediation and declined to reschedule before the mediation deadline on Jan 31,” he told This Is Reno last month. An email from the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission shows TMCC “decided not to participate in a mediation session before 31 January 2022,” a federal mediator wrote. Jensen filed the EEOC complaint in August, and said the federal agency scheduled a mediation session for Dec. 9, 2021. “I received an email from the employer stating that it was cancelling the mediation session, scheduled for Thursday 9 December 2021,” the mediator wrote. “This is very unfortunate; particularly because this charge has been at the Alternative Dispute Resolution Unit since 30 August 2021, and I am only able to retain it until 31 January 2022.” Jensen, in December, said litigation was the next step. Three attorneys representing him filed the lawsuit this week on his behalf. He has been supported by free-speech and professors’ rights organizations, which have issued statements protesting his treatment at TMCC.

The American Association of University Professors, Nevada Faculty Alliance (NFA), the Academic Freedom Alliance and Foundation for Individual Rights in Education each issued letters of concern over the move by Truckee Meadow Community College administrators to fire math Professor Lars Jensen. More than 10 faculty from each Nevada System of Higher Education institution wrote the NFA letter. “His termination would be a violation of his academic freedom and his rights as an academic faculty member and would constitute a travesty of justice,” the faculty members wrote. “In addition, it would very likely lead to successful litigation against TMCC. “The State Board of the Nevada Faculty Alliance has previously criticized the TMCC administration for a campus climate of retribution and fear,” they added. “The contrived termination case against Professor Jensen, who is passionate about his students and about upholding academic standards, is another and extreme example of retaliation against an outspoken faculty member.”

Robert Coache has applied to receive an official exoneration by the State of Nevada after serving time in prison for crimes the Nevada Supreme Court later dismissed for lack of evidence. Whether he is granted that status, however, remains to be seen. Coache, who spent 16 months in prison, could be eligible for $50,000 a year for each year served, under a 2019 law passed by the Nevada legislature. It’s a drop in the bucket compared with the $5 million in damages he is now seeking in a federal civil rights lawsuit filed against Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) and the Clark County District Attorney’s Office. Coache faced 49 charges, “spent over sixteen months in prison and was on parole for conspiracy to commit extortion by public officer or employee, extortion by public officer or employee, conspiracy to commit asking or receiving bribe by public officer, asking, or receiving bribe by public officer, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and forty-four counts of money laundering,” his attorneys said. The Nevada Supreme Court in 2019 dismissed the 49 charges against him citing lack of evidence.

The Plaintiff in this case, Sparks, Nevada Police Officer George Forbush (“Officer Forbush” or “Plaintiff’) sued the Defendants, the City of Sparks and three City officials (collectively “Defendants”), alleging that Defendants deliberately infringed upon, chilled, and retaliated against him for the exercise of, his First Amendment rights, on the basis of statements he made while off duty, regarding matters of public concern, published on his personal social media accounts, and made as a citizen and not as part of his official responsibilities. Officer Forbush brought a claim for relief under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, alleging that his municipal employer took an adverse employment action against him on the basis of his off-duty speech as a private citizen, on matters of public concern. Such claims are regularly and straightforwardly litigated in this Court and district courts around the country. See, e.g., Moser v. Las Vegas Metro. Police Dept., 984 F.3d 900 (9th Cir. 2021); 9th Cir. Model Jury Instr. 9.9, 9.10. Defendants have nonetheless filed a motion under FRCP 12(b)(6) and 12(b)(1). That Rule allows for motions arguing that a complaint “fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted,” or that the District Court lacks jurisdiction over the claim asserted. Defendants’ Motion fails to make out either argument.

Sparks Police Officer George Forbush has filed a lawsuit against the City of Sparks and several of its senior staff claiming they violated his First Amendment rights. He is seeking $1 million in compensatory damages along with an additional sum for general and punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. The lawsuit is in response to a four-day suspension Forbush received in 2020 following an investigation into controversial social media posts that were deemed vile and threatening by many in the community. They said they were appalled by his commentary, which included transphobic comments, celebratory language about leftists and Black Lives Matter activists getting shot and referring to women as bitches and pussies. He also congratulated a Twitter account for posting personal information about a leftist activist, something his lawsuit complains was done to him. Screenshots of the Twitter posts were shared online, spurring a number of complaints to be filed with the Sparks Police Department.

Article in The Times of Israel by Andy Blumenthal: This is not about free speech but about a takeover of America. These vile terrorist supporters are using our very Constitution against us as they falsely cry Islamophobia and free speech, all the while impeding, threatening, and committing acts of violence against students, citizens, and an orderly democracy. It is time for Americans to stop being complacent or fooled by their terrorist talking points and rhetoric of hate, racism, and Communist ideology. In the face of this evil, we are finally seeing Patriots emerge, proudly carrying and defending the American flag, singing the Star-Spangled Banner, and boldly chanting USA!
