CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING OF DAVID F in Utah
Hereafter follows the strange, sad and shocking saga of David F- - - - - and his experience with carbon monoxide poisoning after moving into a manufactured home. It is strange, sad and shocking because the health care professionals and law enforcement intervention after David’s May 21, 2013, trip to the emergency room, one among a series of Emergency Room visits to two different hospitals, left him still undiagnosed and in even worse condition than when he presented himself, thanks to cruel treatment at the hands of those who should have helped him. He continues to suffer physical pain in his wrists and shoulders from the police officer’s unnecessary use of handcuffing and rough abuse, and financial loss resulting from unwarranted impounding of his car and added distress and inconvenience from the loss of his driver’s license. Justice demands that those responsible, who are many, bear the costs of his suffering.
David F - - - - - moved into trailer # - - in M- - - - V- - - - Trailer Park, Springville, UT, on March 1, 2013. David states that his health got worse every day after he moved into his new home. His symptoms are evidence of the range of effects of carbon monoxide poisoning:
Headache, including pain in the eyes and sinuses
Dizziness, to the point that he felt he was going to pass out
Vomiting
Skin irritations, especially a hurting rash that covered his arms and neck
Mental confusion
David’s health challenges eventually became so severe that he presented himself numerous times to the Emergency Room of P- - - - - Hospital and at least times to the Emergency Room of U- - - V- - - - - R- - - - - - - Medical Center in P- - - -, Utah, which could not find anything wrong with him, although their diagnostic tools included a CAT scan. David’s son Lonnie, who drove David to the UVRMC ER on May 8, describes David’s health on May 8: “He was sicker than anybody I ever saw. He was throwing up so much that I had to take him to the garbage can. Finally, they brought him a sack, but he was empty by then. He was sicker than I’ve ever seen him…sicker than anyone I ever saw. He kept saying he thought he was being poisoned. He was so sick I didn’t think he’d make it, passing out all the time. They pumped him full of meds and kicked him out.”
On May 21, David made trip to the Emergency Room since moving into M- - - - V- - - Trailer Park when he thought something serious was wrong with him. It is indicative of his mental confusion at the time that David does not really remember how many trips he had previously made to the ER. “I was really sick,” he explains. This time, he drove himself to U- - - V- - - - - R- - - - - - - Medical Center Emergency Room. “It was the worst night of my life. I’ve never felt that way. I couldn’t function. I was crazy, out of my head. I couldn’t walk. I couldn’t balance myself.” David spent three hours laying in the Emergency Room, which he describes as “freezing.” He requested warm blankets and a warmer place to stay, because his hands and feet were numb from the cold, but the 2-3 blankets offered were not sufficient to augment his body heat as he needed.
Once in the Emergency Room, David vomited for ten minutes. After spending two hours in the Emergency Room, David decided “I can’t take this cold.” The numbness in his feet made it hard for him to walk. When he told the nurse, “I can’t take it,” she just walked out. The nurse said twenty minutes later, “We don’t give narcotics.” David replied, “I didn’t ask you for any.” David describes the nurse as unnecessarily rude. “Maybe she had just had a bad day, but she was an old hag.”
Finally, he could no longer stand the pain and numbness, David requested that the nurse remove the IV with fluids. After confirming that no drugs had been administered to him, David announced his intentions with these words, “I’m going … you won’t keep me warm.” The nurse responded by hurtfully yanking out the needle in a mad and angry gesture. David says that the bleeding that resulted from the brutal yanking out of the needle continued in spite of being bandaged, to the point that even after he finally got back home, he had to continuously clean up blood that dripped from this wound for hours later. David put on his shirt and stumbled out through the Emergency Room exit, walking with difficulty on numb feet. He saw no one and no one tried to stop him, although he thinks he overheard an intercom message from what he assumed was an Emergency Room Technician saying that he had pills and should be arrested. David had not taken nor had he been given any medications. From the police officer’s Incident Report, Exhibit F, we learn that Dr. C- - - - - - S- - - - - - is responsible for summoning the police to stop David from driving because he had taken two Lortab. David, tests later confirmed, had not taken any drugs, however.
To get warm, David got into his truck and started it up, waiting about five minutes for the engine to warm up. At that time, two to three police cars drove up, manned by Officer S- - - H- - - - - of P- - - - City and another Officer J- - - - - -. The officers tried to make David walk, but he was all numb, dizzy and nauseous and could hardly stand up. David fell down and could not walk. The officers told David, “You can’t drive that car. You’ve got two Lortab in you.” “No, I don’t,” David insisted to Officer H- - - - - , whom David now describes as “an ignorant son of a gun.” “If you say that again, I’m going to throw you in jail,” Officer H- - - - - replied to David’s denial of being on drugs.
After David was unable to walk because of the numbness in his feet and was therefore unable to take the walking test the officers demanded. Officer H- - - - - - grabbed David at this time and snapped on handcuffs with his arms behind his back. David’s wrists and shoulders still hurt to this day because of the brutal treatment of Officer H- - - - -. “You are hurting me,” David protested, prompting Officer H- - - - - to shove him and pull up his arms, twisting the cuffs. The police officer told David to get into his police car, but David did not respond fast enough, so the officer shoved David into the car, causing his face and glasses to smash into the seat.
“Damn it … you’re hurting me!” David protested again. “He didn’t care,” David now explains. The officer told David to sit up after he slammed his face into the seat. “You’re hurting me and you’re hurting me on purpose,” David told the officer. Note that Officer H- - - - - is a big, burly man and David can be described as slight of frame, soft-spoken and mild-mannered. David describes Officer H- - - - -’s behavior, “He was already hollering like hell. He was an animal. He muscled me then real bad.”
They drove David to the Police Department and dragged him out of the car by his arms and wrists. “My damn glasses are on your seat,” David protested upon being separated from his glasses. “I don’t care. You’re not getting them back,” quietly and with menace, replied the officer of the peace. David swore in response: “By God, you’ll pay for them, then,” which prompted Officer H- - - - - to radio another police officer to get his glasses.
Again holding up David’s arms by the cuffs, the officer walked David into the police station and set him in a chair as he wrote up the statement. All the while this transpired, David was trying to throw up, but after vomiting all day, he had nothing left in his stomach. Officer H- - - - - and his partner laughed at David for his predicament, as he tried in vain to vomit. “You think it’s funny? Hurting a 73-year old man?” David’s protest caused the officers to start to laugh again.
It took about an hour for the officer to write up the complaint, during which time, David asked about ten times for looser cuffs or plastic cuffs to ease his discomfort, but “he wouldn’t do it.” David perceived that Officer H- - - - - wanted to hurt David, pulling up on and wrenching his shoulders with the cuffs locked behind his back when he had the opportunity, when no one else was looking. Blood samples were taken during David’s time in the hospital, but he was unable to produce urine for a urine analysis. There was no Breathalyzer analysis, either. The policeman then hauled David back to the hospital in the same brutal manner, muscling David and trying to hurt him when no one was looking, still with the cuffs on. “You’re hurting me! My hands are numb. I can’t even feel my hands.”
Officer H- - - - -’s written report of the incident afterwards (Exhibit M) is glaringly inconsistent on the issue of medications David had been taking. Officer H- - - - - wrote that David told him, the officer, that he had taken two Lortabs, but David denies every saying his and claims flat-out that the officer is lying in this report. David says he has a prescription for Lortab and normally takes four each day, two in the morning and two in the evening for pain, but that he never would drive if he had taken Lortab. David says that he had not taken any Lortab for five days prior to this incident. Indeed, no drugs were found in David’s toxicology reports. Why is there this discrepancy? Did Officer H- - - - - assume David was on Lortab because he has a prescription for Lortab? Did he assume he had been given Lortab because of Dr. C- - - - - - - S- - - - - - summons for the officers to come to the hospital? Where did Dr. S- - - - - - get this false information on which he based his summons? Sad to say, David believes that Dr. S- - - - - - was deliberately making this false accusation. David had encountered Dr. S- - - - - - on previous ER visits and he thinks he was annoyed and frustrated with his inability to help David! Sadly, his son Lonnie agrees with David’s assessment, based not only on his May 8 observations of David’s Emergency Room visit on that date, but on his own experience as a patient there. “They are never nice,” is Lonnie’s summation of his experiences at church-owned UVRMC. If Lonnie and David are correct, and if Dr. S- - - - - - maliciously sent the police to stop a patient the doctor was unable to help, any good psychologist can assist Dr. S- - - - - - to recognize what is known as “guilt projection.” Until the public can be assured that he does not repeat this abuse of his authority, his license should be revoked.
The written report by Officer H- - - - - includes a final paragraph which calls into question David’s mental health in reference to a year-old incident that demands explanation. David at that time was living in a home owned by his daughter, who became alarmed when she noticed a bullet hole in the eaves. David explained to her that he had incurred the wrath of some of his neighbors when he wrote down license plate numbers of vehicles which seemed suspicious to him. The police later mounted surveillance cameras in the same area, a sign that they also thought there was a need to monitor the same area. These neighbors had become increasingly aggressive towards David, to the point of coming in through the windows, so David had fired a warning shot into the ceiling, which he later patched over. The warning shot subdued the aggression of his neighbors, but David’s daughter jumped to the false conclusion that David was suicidal and reported her concerns, but David subsequently earned a clean bill of mental health. He is furious with his daughter now and considering suing her for her report, which he says was a lie based on a wrong assumption.
Upon arrival back at the hospital, David discovered that they had already impounded his truck. When David asked, “Why?” his tormentor answered, “For drugs!” David insists, as all evidence proves, “I didn’t have any drugs in me.” David’s daughter eventually helped David to get back home, where he crawled into bed. David knew he was sick. He felt he was freezing, and he also knew that the policeman had tried to hurt him.
The cost to get back his impounded truck came to $ 500.00. His driver’s license was confiscated and revoked and has not yet been reinstated, although his case was dismissed. David has a chauffer’s license with no tickets, except a 2009 crosswalk ticket. He was unable to attend two appointments to reinstate his driver’s license due to continued sickness. It will cost David $ 250.00 to get his license back. David paid $ 25.00 to get copies of his toxicology reports (Exhibits I and O), which confirmed the judge’s assessment. David’s reports for blood received by Utah Department of Health May 29, and completed June 18, were negative, proof that he was clean of drugs and alcohol. (Exhibit I) The State of Utah Department of Public Safety Driver License Division denial of reinstatement message is Exhibit P. When David wrote to the Driver’s License department to ask why his driver’s license was not restored after he was found Not Guilty since the judge dismissed his case finding that no drugs were found in David’s blood, they wrote him back and said that they were taking the officer’s report and not the court’s judgment as the basis for their decision not to allow David to schedule a third appointment! He had missed two appointments due to the fact that he had moved and never received notice about these two appointments and had requested a third appointment to discuss return of his driver’s license. The loss of his driver’s license has been an extra burden David has had to bear. He has to pay people to drive him to the grocery store; $25 was the cost for one trip. He cannot go to the doctor’s office as he needs, and he has had to change to a doctor who is closer. He cannot shop for groceries at will. He has driven to Orem from Springville at least three times on his bicycle. Incredibly, David’s record now still shows a DUI. The Driver’s License Division charged David $ 18.00 for a simple copy of his illegally confiscated driver’s license. (Exhibit R)
On May 9, 2013, the Gas company shut down David’s water heater. May 7, Questar had come to test for natural fuel-gas leaks, but found nothing wrong. They sent someone else two days later to tear apart the furnace, and found nothing, but as the workman left, he decided to check the water heater and found that a pipe was loose and disconnected, the water heater was broken and improperly installed, and an excess of carbon monoxide was being produced, effecting gas re-burn, and emptying inside David’s home. After a miserable few months, David had a new water heater installed. His poisoning ceased, but his serious near-death neurological and systemic (physical) damage will take months (even years) to restore. David still gets sick. He has trouble sleeping. Even though it is now wintertime, he often sleeps with the window open wide to try to oxygenate his oxygen-starved body.
Diligent diagnoses with a cheap and easy Carboxyhemoglobin evaluation with the hospital’s extant, already CO (Carbon Monoxide) diagnostically capable, Pulse-Oxymeter (the same painless finger clip optical sensor already used to instantly get a pulse and Oxygen reading anyway) would also have instantly identified (if the medical practitioner had only pushed the third button) the Carbon Monoxide poisoning levels in David’s blood and predicated correct treatment: static (ambient), concentrated, pure or hyperbaric oxygen, not belligerent (life-damning) ignorant treatment, arrest, brutalization, incarceration, violation of human rights, illegal confiscation (and destruction) of personal property (license and vehicle and glasses that are still askew), court costs (time, trauma, money), and loss of employment! A simple, cheap Carboxyhemoglobin reading (from that same Pulse-Oxymeter and its very convenient-to-use finger clip) instead would have prescribed investigation and identification of his poisoning source, cause and its remedy…not the hell David needlessly suffered and still is paying for today.
Can you believe Questar was going to charge David for a copy of their “Warning! Notice of Unsafe Condition” alert flier left on his door, but fortunately, he was able to find the original. (Exhibit C)
David was summoned to appear on June 20 to answer charges of DUI for alcohol/drugs, his second arraignment to go to court, Citation D11084313 by P- - - - Police, signed by Officers H- - - - - and J- - - - - -. (Exhibit D) David was still sick in June, and the judge moved the June 20 date to September 23 based on his own judgment. The case was dismissed September 23, because the judge declared, “You had nothing in your blood at all.”
On August 18, Dr. David Voss, a caring physician at another facility) found blood levels of CO in David’s body were less than those test a month earlier, when was David first tested for CO on July 18, indicating that the new water heater had solved the CO emissions problem of the old water heater. (Exhibit L)
This disturbing story reveals a number of areas of concerns for all of us in David’s community. Who is responsible for the faulty water heater which produced carbon monoxide? Who is responsible for training the nurse who could not help David stay warm? Why were police summoned when David had not been taking drugs? Who is responsible for training police officers who demonstrate such ignorance and sadistic behavior? Who is responsible for paying the costly impounding fees and license reinstatement fees? Who is responsible for David’s new health problems associated with the brutal treatment to his shoulders and wrists while in police custody? He is in constant pain as a result of the cruel actions of ignorant and unkind police officers who mocked his suffering. “The cops are just bullies,” David’s verdict, needs to be addressed and corrected.
Friends and neighbors of David Forbes demand justice and redress of his grievances. Medicine needs to honor its oath. Our police officers must learn common decency, compassion and how to distinguish a sick old man from a criminal. They must learn that they are not judge, jury and executioner and must be punished for sadistic infliction of pain – along with the malicious, incompetent medical “mal”-practitioners who failed to honor their oath (commonly paraphrased as “First do no harm”) in failing to perform diagnostic due diligence – even worse, forced David to remain in his life-threatening carbon monoxide poisoned state, called for his arrest, brutal treatment, incarceration (while at near-death with carbon monoxide effected hypoxia, progressing lactic-acidosis, cellanoxia, myoglobin and cytochrome-oxidase dysfunction predisposing latent tissue morbidity even mortality), and causing the illegal confiscation and loss of his personal property – his dignify, his health, his driver’s license and his vehicle – and caused the instant financial devastation and subsequently suffered financial losses and added life trauma in all their ridiculous medical, court, police and vehicle impound releases and re-licensure demands, processes, fees and simple life costs to restore anything at all!
Sady, David’s case is not unique. Hundreds of thousands experience similar betrayal and mistreatment by medicine and law since medicine and law have been hijacked by the mercenaries (insurers, stockholders, stockbrokers, speculators, bankers, and dependent “big pharma”) of today, from the merciful humble, caring clinicians, physicians and pathologists of formers years. Why? No lifetime of prescription drugs or perpetual Medical treatments get sold in honest carbon monoxide diagnosis! Misdiagnosis is certainly far more profitable for everyone – except the victim. The government will unblushingly charge us $ 18.00 (Exhibit R) for a Xerox copy of an illegally confiscated driver’s license and slam our face into a seat and break our glasses and wrench our shoulders and wrists.
David’s tale is a real live Horror Story: Everyone to whom David turned for help was a human Monster, a “helper” who wished him harm and did harm him under the cloak of authority and the color of law. We are paying the salaries of public servants who abuse the elderly and doctors who send the police when they can not help us? A bureaucratic clerk’s decision to side with an officer’s false report overrides the judge’s decision of innocence in a court of law? At every turn, Mr. F- - - - -’ rights were violated. The Stasi [and our own "angel(s) of death", the 'Dr Mengele' types facilitating the subtle asphyxiation of "the undesirables", our own economically disadvantaged (34) millions in America] is now in our own backyard. The fact is that ObamaCare promises to be, in fact has already proven to be, such a Bride of Frankenstein marriage between government and healthcare, doctors and nurses and policemen and bureaucrats and politicians who think they wield the authority of God: arrogant, unaccountable, acting on personal whim rather than principle, even vicious. This, Dear Fellow Citizens, is Bondage: the reward of the wicked, the price of our lack of vigilance, the loss of freedom, slavery to heartless masters. The jackboot in the face of the innocent, weak victim of the insane, power-mad, state-paid bully is the ultimate Horror, the same indignity, shame and excruciating pain Christ suffered at the hands of public “helpers.”

CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING OF DAVID F in Utah
Hereafter follows the strange, sad and shocking saga of David F- - - - - and his experience with carbon monoxide poisoning after moving into a manufactured home. It is strange, sad and shocking because the health care professionals and law enforcement intervention after David’s May 21, 2013, trip to the emergency room, one among a series of Emergency Room visits to two different hospitals, left him still undiagnosed and in even worse condition than when he presented himself, thanks to cruel treatment at the hands of those who should have helped him.

It took about an hour for the officer to write up the complaint, during which time, David asked about ten times for looser cuffs or plastic cuffs to ease his discomfort, but “he wouldn’t do it.” David perceived that Officer H- - - - - wanted to hurt David, pulling up on and wrenching his shoulders with the cuffs locked behind his back when he had the opportunity, when no one else was looking. Blood samples were taken during David’s time in the hospital, but he was unable to produce urine for a urine analysis. There was no Breathalyzer analysis, either. The policeman then hauled David back to the hospital in the same brutal manner, muscling David and trying to hurt him when no one was looking, still with the cuffs on. “You’re hurting me! My hands are numb. I can’t even feel my hands.”
Officer H- - - - -’s written report of the incident afterwards (Exhibit M) is glaringly inconsistent on the issue of medications David had been taking. Officer H- - - - - wrote that David told him, the officer, that he had taken two Lortabs, but David denies every saying his and claims flat-out that the officer is lying in this report. David says he has a prescription for Lortab and normally takes four each day, two in the morning and two in the evening for pain, but that he never would drive if he had taken Lortab. David says that he had not taken any Lortab for five days prior to this incident. Indeed, no drugs were found in David’s toxicology reports. Why is there this discrepancy? Did Officer H- - - - - assume David was on Lortab because he has a prescription for Lortab? Did he assume he had been given Lortab because of Dr. C- - - - - - - S- - - - - - summons for the officers to come to the hospital? Where did Dr. S- - - - - - get this false information on which he based his summons? Sad to say, David believes that Dr. S- - - - - - was deliberately making this false accusation. David had encountered Dr. S- - - - - - on previous ER visits and he thinks he was annoyed and frustrated with his inability to help David! Sadly, his son Lonnie agrees with David’s assessment, based not only on his May 8 observations of David’s Emergency Room visit on that date, but on his own experience as a patient there. “They are never nice,” is Lonnie’s summation of his experiences at church-owned UVRMC. If Lonnie and David are correct, and if Dr. S- - - - - - maliciously sent the police to stop a patient the doctor was unable to help, any good psychologist can assist Dr. S- - - - - - to recognize what is known as “guilt projection.” Until the public can be assured that he does not repeat this abuse of his authority, his license should be revoked.
The written report by Officer H- - - - - includes a final paragraph which calls into question David’s mental health in reference to a year-old incident that demands explanation. David at that time was living in a home owned by his daughter, who became alarmed when she noticed a bullet hole in the eaves. David explained to her that he had incurred the wrath of some of his neighbors when he wrote down license plate numbers of vehicles which seemed suspicious to him. The police later mounted surveillance cameras in the same area, a sign that they also thought there was a need to monitor the same area. These neighbors had become increasingly aggressive towards David, to the point of coming in through the windows, so David had fired a warning shot into the ceiling, which he later patched over. The warning shot subdued the aggression of his neighbors, but David’s daughter jumped to the false conclusion that David was suicidal and reported her concerns, but David subsequently earned a clean bill of mental health. He is furious with his daughter now and considering suing her for her report, which he says was a lie based on a wrong assumption.
Upon arrival back at the hospital, David discovered that they had already impounded his truck. When David asked, “Why?” his tormentor answered, “For drugs!” David insists, as all evidence proves, “I didn’t have any drugs in me.” David’s daughter eventually helped David to get back home, where he crawled into bed. David knew he was sick. He felt he was freezing, and he also knew that the policeman had tried to hurt him.
The cost to get back his impounded truck came to $ 500.00. His driver’s license was confiscated and revoked and has not yet been reinstated, although his case was dismissed. David has a chauffer’s license with no tickets, except a 2009 crosswalk ticket. He was unable to attend two appointments to reinstate his driver’s license due to continued sickness. It will cost David $ 250.00 to get his license back. David paid $ 25.00 to get copies of his toxicology reports (Exhibits I and O), which confirmed the judge’s assessment. David’s reports for blood received by Utah Department of Health May 29, and completed June 18, were negative, proof that he was clean of drugs and alcohol. (Exhibit I) The State of Utah Department of Public Safety Driver License Division denial of reinstatement message is Exhibit P. When David wrote to the Driver’s License department to ask why his driver’s license was not restored after he was found Not Guilty since the judge dismissed his case finding that no drugs were found in David’s blood, they wrote him back and said that they were taking the officer’s report and not the court’s judgment as the basis for their decision not to allow David to schedule a third appointment! He had missed two appointments due to the fact that he had moved and never received notice about these two appointments and had requested a third appointment to discuss return of his driver’s license. The loss of his driver’s license has been an extra burden David has had to bear. He has to pay people to drive him to the grocery store; $25 was the cost for one trip. He cannot go to the doctor’s office as he needs, and he has had to change to a doctor who is closer. He cannot shop for groceries at will. He has driven to Orem from Springville at least three times on his bicycle. Incredibly, David’s record now still shows a DUI. The Driver’s License Division charged David $ 18.00 for a simple copy of his illegally confiscated driver’s license. (Exhibit R)
On May 9, 2013, the Gas company shut down David’s water heater. May 7, Questar had come to test for natural fuel-gas leaks, but found nothing wrong. They sent someone else two days later to tear apart the furnace, and found nothing, but as the workman left, he decided to check the water heater and found that a pipe was loose and disconnected, the water heater was broken and improperly installed, and an excess of carbon monoxide was being produced, effecting gas re-burn, and emptying inside David’s home. After a miserable few months, David had a new water heater installed. His poisoning ceased, but his serious near-death neurological and systemic (physical) damage will take months (even years) to restore. David still gets sick. He has trouble sleeping. Even though it is now wintertime, he often sleeps with the window open wide to try to oxygenate his oxygen-starved body.
Diligent diagnoses with a cheap and easy Carboxyhemoglobin evaluation with the hospital’s extant, already CO (Carbon Monoxide) diagnostically capable, Pulse-Oxymeter (the same painless finger clip optical sensor already used to instantly get a pulse and Oxygen reading anyway) would also have instantly identified (if the medical practitioner had only pushed the third button) the Carbon Monoxide poisoning levels in David’s blood and predicated correct treatment: static (ambient), concentrated, pure or hyperbaric oxygen, not belligerent (life-damning) ignorant treatment, arrest, brutalization, incarceration, violation of human rights, illegal confiscation (and destruction) of personal property (license and vehicle and glasses that are still askew), court costs (time, trauma, money), and loss of employment! A simple, cheap Carboxyhemoglobin reading (from that same Pulse-Oxymeter and its very convenient-to-use finger clip) instead would have prescribed investigation and identification of his poisoning source, cause and its remedy…not the hell David needlessly suffered and still is paying for today.
Can you believe Questar was going to charge David for a copy of their “Warning! Notice of Unsafe Condition” alert flier left on his door, but fortunately, he was able to find the original. (Exhibit C)
David was summoned to appear on June 20 to answer charges of DUI for alcohol/drugs, his second arraignment to go to court, Citation D11084313 by P- - - - Police, signed by Officers H- - - - - and J- - - - - -. (Exhibit D) David was still sick in June, and the judge moved the June 20 date to September 23 based on his own judgment. The case was dismissed September 23, because the judge declared, “You had nothing in your blood at all.”
On August 18, Dr. David Voss, a caring physician at another facility) found blood levels of CO in David’s body were less than those test a month earlier, when was David first tested for CO on July 18, indicating that the new water heater had solved the CO emissions problem of the old water heater. (Exhibit L)
This disturbing story reveals a number of areas of concerns for all of us in David’s community. Who is responsible for the faulty water heater which produced carbon monoxide? Who is responsible for training the nurse who could not help David stay warm? Why were police summoned when David had not been taking drugs? Who is responsible for training police officers who demonstrate such ignorance and sadistic behavior? Who is responsible for paying the costly impounding fees and license reinstatement fees? Who is responsible for David’s new health problems associated with the brutal treatment to his shoulders and wrists while in police custody? He is in constant pain as a result of the cruel actions of ignorant and unkind police officers who mocked his suffering. “The cops are just bullies,” David’s verdict, needs to be addressed and corrected.
Friends and neighbors of David Forbes demand justice and redress of his grievances. Medicine needs to honor its oath. Our police officers must learn common decency, compassion and how to distinguish a sick old man from a criminal. They must learn that they are not judge, jury and executioner and must be punished for sadistic infliction of pain – along with the malicious, incompetent medical “mal”-practitioners who failed to honor their oath (commonly paraphrased as “First do no harm”) in failing to perform diagnostic due diligence – even worse, forced David to remain in his life-threatening carbon monoxide poisoned state, called for his arrest, brutal treatment, incarceration (while at near-death with carbon monoxide effected hypoxia, progressing lactic-acidosis, cellanoxia, myoglobin and cytochrome-oxidase dysfunction predisposing latent tissue morbidity even mortality), and causing the illegal confiscation and loss of his personal property – his dignify, his health, his driver’s license and his vehicle – and caused the instant financial devastation and subsequently suffered financial losses and added life trauma in all their ridiculous medical, court, police and vehicle impound releases and re-licensure demands, processes, fees and simple life costs to restore anything at all!
Sady, David’s case is not unique. Hundreds of thousands experience similar betrayal and mistreatment by medicine and law since medicine and law have been hijacked by the mercenaries (insurers, stockholders, stockbrokers, speculators, bankers, and dependent “big pharma”) of today, from the merciful humble, caring clinicians, physicians and pathologists of formers years. Why? No lifetime of prescription drugs or perpetual Medical treatments get sold in honest carbon monoxide diagnosis! Misdiagnosis is certainly far more profitable for everyone – except the victim. The government will unblushingly charge us $ 18.00 (Exhibit R) for a Xerox copy of an illegally confiscated driver’s license and slam our face into a seat and break our glasses and wrench our shoulders and wrists.
David’s tale is a real live Horror Story: Everyone to whom David turned for help was a human Monster, a “helper” who wished him harm and did harm him under the cloak of authority and the color of law. We are paying the salaries of public servants who abuse the elderly and doctors who send the police when they can not help us? A bureaucratic clerk’s decision to side with an officer’s false report overrides the judge’s decision of innocence in a court of law? At every turn, Mr. F- - - - -’ rights were violated. The Stasi [and our own "angel(s) of death", the 'Dr Mengele' types facilitating the subtle asphyxiation of "the undesirables", our own economically disadvantaged (34) millions in America] is now in our own backyard. The fact is that ObamaCare promises to be, in fact has already proven to be, such a Bride of Frankenstein marriage between government and healthcare, doctors and nurses and policemen and bureaucrats and politicians who think they wield the authority of God: arrogant, unaccountable, acting on personal whim rather than principle, even vicious. This, Dear Fellow Citizens, is Bondage: the reward of the wicked, the price of our lack of vigilance, the loss of freedom, slavery to heartless masters. The jackboot in the face of the innocent, weak victim of the insane, power-mad, state-paid bully is the ultimate Horror, the same indignity, shame and excruciating pain Christ suffered at the hands of public “helpers.”

Added Case 2. Manufactured Home "Blend Air" Vent poisoning; Misdiagnosed, Put on C-PAP, "Diabetes", Neurological, Vascular Damage, etc! -- Steve B, Taylorsville Utah!
-- Explanatory Photos and Videos are at bottom.
My Manufactured Home Occupancy and Health History
In December of 2012 I move into doublewide 2000 Fleetwood Manufactured home. I hired a professional home inspector to make sure the home was viable and safe before escrow closed.
My health began to degrade and I was tired all the time and with no sex drive. I started a vigorous search to find what was wrong with me. The dentist found a rotten tooth and I had it removed. I had lots of blood test for everything including HIV and aids, STD [with concerns from failed marital relationship] with no firm results for anything concrete.
In the summer of 2013 was diagnosed with sleep apnea and diabetic type 2 and was put on CPAP Oxygen treatment and pills to regulate my sugar. Me legs swelled up and were turning blue on the ankles. I went to a California clinic in Colton and had ST8 treatments done for 2 - 2 weeks periods and the swelling went down and the normal color returned to my legs.
In Sept of 2013 [heating season began again] I felt very sick and tired, (after a disturbing dream of my own potential death) I telephoned Tom Rodgers and he said it could be my Mobile home furnace. He advised me to contact a retired fireman friend and ask him to analyze my blood (with the same portable Carbon Monoxide testing unit (RAD-57) the firemen use to monitor their own blood for Carbon Monoxide while fighting fires). My fireman friend stated that he was not allowed to check my blood nor use the equipment and his friends in the fire department would not do it either.
-- I called Tom back and reported that decline. Tom then drove to my mobile home park and tested it with atmospheric tester. The furnace was putting out more CO than a new one but it was 12 years old. The furnace was putting out 28 ppm Carbon Monoxide being produced and easily drafting back into my home though the "Blend Air' intake system as part of my heating system. The home roof "Blend Air" inlet vent was about 3 feet away from the roof furnace exhaust vent.
-- We disabled and blocked that "Blend Air" system to prevent any more exhaust fumes from being drafted in and contaminating the interior are of my home. He put two plastic bags over the roof fixture but the flapper valve kept opening up and letting air into the furnace from someplace else. He then block the furnace roof vent opening up with tape and a plastic lid.
Within days my health began to improve. etc etc
I have not taken the pills or used the CPAP machine for months now and feel good. I am out of country and have not been tested recently. I went to the Philippines and found an Advanced Physical therapist that is working on my whole body but mainly my legs. She says my blood vessels, lymph system and nerves are hard and inflexible causing the pain in my legs. They are much improved after a month.

- These three videos taken while at Steve's home in Taylorsville Utah, show you how to, at No Cost, temporarily fix your own unit yourself and it will keep you from being poisoned until a permanent fix can be done (by HUD and the MH Industry that created the problem)!
- Note in the 2nd video "Covering Blend Air Intake on Roof", I misstated the CO reading as 20 ppm when, as you can see, it was actually 28 ppm, which means Steve's home would be fatal for infants!
