Freeman’s employer did not see it this way. When police questioned her (thus collaborating with ICE), she openly said that she disagreed with ICE separating immigrants from their families. Trinity Health fired Freeman and has refused to make any public statement on the events of May 28.
Questioned by the police? It’s time to shut the fuck up
Good on her though
With a surname like freeman this is gonna be a pr niiightmaaaare
The Underground Railroad was also illegal. But we obviously celebrate it today.
You uh…sure about that?
At least when I was a kid in Seattle we were taught about it in very positive (if somewhat sanitized) terms. I’d expect the Confederate states to be less excited about it.
Maybe visit soon while you still have a chance.
Only partly joking. Wouldn’t surprise me one single bit.
She better be getting the best legal representation possible.
We need more people like Chloe Freeman.
Freeman’s employer did not see it this way. When police questioned her (thus collaborating with ICE), she openly said that she disagreed with ICE separating immigrants from their families. Trinity Health fired Freeman and has refused to make any public statement on the events of May 28. It is criminal that this and other hospital systems allow ICE and CBP agents to enter medical buildings.
The problem is that it’s actually, literally criminal for them to deny entrance to the pigs.
Ohh! I love it when we LARP that we have some sort of legitimate legal / justice system!
We have an enforcement arm for the parasitic pedophile rapist class.
I’m an anarchist, brainlet, I just think it’s embarrassing to try and get mad at the hospital about it.
Anarchists don’t bow to authority, poser.
Pragmatic ones pick their battles instead of chasing martyrdom at the first opportunity.
Yep, and it’s not even about picking battles or rEjEcTiNg aUtHoRiTy it’s about not expecting a fucking hospital to lead the initial charge of the revolution.
Lemmy loves to shitpost about anarchism but I don’t hear about any CEOs getting fragged on a weekly basis yet these lazy fucks think a corporate hospital admin team is supposed to hold the door.
The vast majority of hospitals in the US do not allow police entry without a warrant, safety concern or an emergent situation (or a procedural reason - victim interviews and similar are sometimes done in hospital, as well as supervision of physical evidence collection (or the actual collection itself if the hospital doesn’t have a certified forensic examiner (or legal/jurisdictional equivalent) on staff)), why are you just making stuff up you clearly don’t know about dude?
You’re just flat wrong though - the police do not have the right to enter a hospital beyond the public sections (generally, the waiting rooms) without a warrant or permission from the hospital. The hospital in this case gave the police that permission, and unless a statute exists in Michigan specifically allowing this (if one exists I haven’t found it), they are absolutely at fault for doing so.
Trying to parse that last sentence. Who is at fault for doing what?
The hospital is at fault for letting the police in.
Wrong. That’s why the guy got away and she was able to assist him in the first place, specifically because they weren’t barging into operation areas.
My goodness, am I really?
ICE agents accompanied him into the hospital but did not thoroughly guard him at all times. […] Then, Chloe Freeman, a Registered Nurse working her shift, entered the CT room, spoke with O.B.P., and helped him walk through several doors, exit the hospital, and walk out free. He has not been recaptured. (emphasis mine)
Oh - I’m terribly sorry, but you appear to be mistaken. ICE were allowed into the hospital, and as written did not accompany him into the radiology room (since personnel generally do not stand around CT scanners due to the radiation hazard this makes sense). So the hospital does therefore seem to have been at fault for allowing them to accompany the patient - but thank you for looking out for accuracy in comment sections!
Missed the point, friend
No, I didn’t. They’re just fucking stupid.
Almost as hot as Luigi
“What are you in for?”
“Human decency and compassion”
“Yeah, that’ll do it”
Makes sense why the hospital fired her too. Can’t afford do be associated with things like decency and/or compassion
Straight to the Group W bench.
First time?
Anyone know if there’s a legal defense fund to donate to?
Never really donated to a GoFundMe, so don’t know how to verify if legit
Oh joy, now we’re criminally charging people for being…checks notes good people.
👨🚀🔫👨🚀
A real American Hero. Very appropriate name lol
I’ll donate a crowbar to her cause
Hope this good hearted lassie gets some local support and legal representation.
Legal support, sure. But in addition to being prosecuted, she was also fired:
Trinity Health fired Freeman and has refused to make any public statement on the events of May 28. […] This non-profit is the sixth largest U.S. hospital system, with 125,000 employees, and one of several Catholic Church affiliated systems that operate dozens of hospitals across broad swathes of the country.
So this aspect isn’t just legal, or local.
Having previously worked for the “Catholic” hospital system Ascension, FUCK Catholic hospital “systems.” We used to be a local system that provided top-notch, academic, and ethical care. The nuns would walk around and hold motherfuckers accountable. I watched everything degrade quickly after Ascension took over. The nuns left, and slowly everyone in leadership, who used to be experienced doctors, nurses, and social workers, were replaced by people whose only experience was in business.
To be fair, the health system is as criminal and malevolent as ICE.
Ann Arbor is a generally considered a progressive college town. Odds are likely many locals have her back
That’s a fucking hero if i’ve ever heard of one.
On September 29, federal prosecutor Jerome Morgan, assisted by FBI agent Jennifer Runyan, publicly charged a Michigan nurse with assisting the escape of a man held by ICE from a hospital.
That sure is a guy with a name and probably address.
It’s not the public’s job to aid in the arrest of people.
Seriously? The identity him as O B P?
These fuckers.
