Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita publicly and baselessly insinuated that Dr. Caitlin Bernard had committed medical misconduct in her treatment of the girl.
Rokita and his co-defendants from “unlawfully [harassing] physicians and patients who are engaged in completely legal conduct and even though neither the physicians nor patients have any complaints about their relationship.
In Ohio, the state where the girl lived, elected officials cast doubt on her very existence. Attorney General David Yost appeared on Fox News and declared that there was “not a damn scintilla of evidence” that the case was real,” and Representative Jim Jordan tweeted that the story was a “lie.” The lawsuit ultimately looks to prevent state officials from overreaching their authority to target and harass both physicians and patients providing and seeking legal treatments, and could set an important precedent in the post-medical landscape. “All licensed professionals face the exact same dangers as Plaintiffs,” the suit reads.
