Halt Hospital Homicide Memorial Rally San Antonio, Texas March 25, 2023 - Section One
Section One
Former Feds Group Freedom Foundation partnered with the C19 Widows and Widowers for Justice, and the Never Alone Project, to hold the first Halt Hospital Homicide Rally on March 25, 2023, at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center, near The Alamo, in San Antonio, Texas.
The attendees were all family, friends, or supporters of victims and survivors of the Covid hospital protocols that ended almost a million lives. We came from all over the United States, by car, truck, and airplane, to publicly honor and remember the sacrifice that our loved ones made when they entered American hospitals expecting medical care. I drove from Georgia to Texas, with my three children to honor my husband's memory. I would not have missed this gathering for anything and as exhausting as it was, it was well worth everything it took to get there and back, and it was truly a life-changing, spirit-filled experience.
We were honored to have doctors and attorneys join us to speak and encourage all of us. This article will be a multi-part description of our event. If you would like to watch the entire event it is on Rumble on the Never Alone Project channel.

If you would like to watch a particular speech you can also find those broken down by speaker on the Rumble channel, Halt Hospital Homicide with direct links under each written condensation here.
On that morning we met at The Alamo, then marched to the Convention Center, carrying signs and posters with pictures of our loved ones and the loved ones of people who could not be there but watched at home on the live streams. The Holy Spirit filled every attendee, every speaker, and the whole convention center. God was definitely in the building that day.
The Power Hour’s Dave Krieger began the rally passionately, saying we must “be emboldened”; we cannot be afraid to speak out. He explained that we “were attacked” by a bioweapon created in a lab in Wuhan but funded by the United States. “We have all had to bear a cross.” Dave points out that our government betrayed us, and they began with the elderly and immunocompromised. “Whatever happened to the Hippocratic Oath?”, he asked. He went on to say that “any doctor who says Remdesivir and the vaccine is ‘safe and effective’ should hang with Fauci!” Oh yes, he went there, and I was fired up from the start! Dave also informed the audience that 90% of republicans in Texas agree with “Tex-It” – a bill to make Texas its own country! Lastly, he let us know that people in the yellow shirts were coming around to pray with people because he knew it was going to be a very emotional day. Mr. Krieger was our MC for the day, desperately trying to keep us all on time!

Kathleen Lamb sang “God Bless America” beautifully, even though, she let us know that the enemy was working hard the past 20 minutes when everything that could go wrong, went wrong, on her way to the convention center.

Pastor Tony Dettle led an opening prayer for “Help!”.

Katrin Crum and Christy Miles talked about the history of the C19 Widows and Widowers Facebook group. Kat described how they began discussing the injustices in the hospital and what happened to their husbands in another Covid19 Widows group, but the administrator of that group kicked them out for talking about those things. Then Katrin explained how the widows came together, discussing their stories, and put the hospital protocol together from beginning to end. “We won’t stop, and we won’t shut up.”

Steve Reiter created the Never Alone Project after his wife was isolated and died in the hospital alone. She did not even have Covid, but she had cancer. “Visitation is the biggest key. Isolation is the biggest problem.” He is working on federal legislation that makes sure this never happens to anyone again. Andy Harris (R-MD) and Jeff Van Drew (R-NJ) are pushing a piece of legislation written into the Social Security Act, specifiying that any medical facility receiving Medicaid or Medicare funding must provide visitation. Steve assures us that this is not exactly what his goal is, but it is a great start leading towards the final goal. He says this is a non-partisan issue across the entire political spectrum. He wants to do a podcast with all our stories soon. “No one should ever be alone in the hospital.”

Carolyn Blakeman (CC) and Bradford Geyer, founder of Former Feds Group, came next. CC began with the story of a small army of less than two hundred who stood their ground against an army of 4,000 at The Alamo. They stood their ground because their freedom was threatened. “We will build our own army, and we will win!” By the looks of this rally, an army was standing, right there, at the Alamo. CC continued to say, “Your loved ones did not die in vain. You and your loved ones will go down in history.” She went on to say her signature line, “silence is complicity.”
Brad started Former Feds Freedom Foundation in March 2020. “DC and members of Congress, Mark Zuckerburg, June 2020 you were furthering Crimes Against Humanity. We tried to let people know, but we were censored.” He went on to say that now we are on the offense, not the defense. “Wolfpack widows and cubs” he called us. He called the FBI “worthless,” and Geyer made a guarantee that all guilty will be held accountable, and every victim would get a plaque in DC. He is still looking for real estate by the Holocaust Museum.

April Moss
April begins with one of my favorite scriptures: 2 Timothy 1:7; “for the spirit of fear does not come from the Lord, but he has given us love, power and a sound mind.” April worked for CBS for a decade. When Covid went down, she waited for other journalists to speak out, but none did. She left CBS, and she began helping people. She is committed to making sure the public knows what is happening in hospitals. “I am in this fight with you.” Moss is the mother of four boys. She refers to the 2020 HCQ report that 100% of Covid cases cured, but 30 days later the FDA declared that no one was to use HCQ for Covid, or you would lose your license or lawsuit. She also discusses the Texas Bill that gave all first responders full immunity from any legal penalty (PREP ACT). “We must speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves.” April gives a valuable resource to help anyone who gets imprisoned in a hospital: Hospital Hostage Helpline, 888-C19-3637, Laura Bartlett. She gives a tip to print and fill out the paperwork in advance and have it ready to go if you must go to a hospital. Moss also encourages everyone to stock up on meds and vitamins at home. She gives her website and tells us that she always responds to every single email on her site. (She really does because I emailed her, and she replied within the hour!) www.aprilmosstv.com

Next, they play the Bad MediSIN trailer. This documentary’s production looks award winning. I am incredibly excited for this documentary to expose our stories to the masses.
https://rumble.com/v2i3vsc-san-antonio-rally-preview-of-bad-medisin-mikki-willis.html
Dr. Angie Farella
“This Girl is on Fire” by Alicia Keys should play as this woman walks out, because that song is about her. Dr. Farella is one of my favorite humans on the planet. She is full of experience, and Angie is knowledgeable, hilarious, and feisty! A pediatrician from Texas, Dr. Farella never shut her doors during the “shutdown.” She is one of the American Frontline Doctors. Angie tells about in March 2020; they immediately removed all the nebulizers out of the ambulances! One of the best lines of the day (and there are so many of them): “Three years later, and we’re still living in the Twilight Zone, mixed with Groundhog Day.” Dr. Farella’s mother was a POW in Germany; her uncle was in the Gulag four times. She now does telemedicine across the country. She was at the Texas Senate all week. “We can treat the symptoms. We do not need to know the cause of disease all the time, we can treat the symptoms.” Now this next part hit me so hard because I said the EXACT same thing in my first story published. Dr. Farella reiterated that, “prior to 2020, if you went to the hospital with the sniffles, you would get a Z-Pack, Prednisone, and an inhaler.” She tells us about the authorities threatening her with outrageous fines if she did not wear a mask, that she could never pay, so she wore it as an earring. Angie said she wanted to get Covid: “I am a pediatrician,” and natural immunity is what they usually do for viruses. “No virus does this! I have been treating viruses for 30 years. No virus does this. Anyone who tells you it does is lying.” She never, in her career, would have ever advocated for reporting medical professionals to the medical board before, but now she wants all of us to report them all! We need to report every single name on our loved ones’ medical records. As a doctor, she assures us that it really does “hurt” to have to go before the medical board for anything. Dr. Angie Farella says her organization is “Freedom Doctor Alliance.” However, I could not find that on the internet. I found the link below instead. She says that her patients label her as a “functional holistic physician.”

Additional Sponsors: Trinity Constructors and Snoot! Spray
Trinity Construction could not be there.
Snoot! is chlorine dioxide. Chlorine Dioxide has been suppressed for decades. Over 12,000 were using chlorine dioxide to cure Covid! It is cheaper than any Ivermectin, HCQ, and as effective. They gave out lots of information; they have toothpaste, breath spray, nasal spray, foot fungus remover, and much more. One of the two founders’ father is who invented the brand and recipe.

First Group of Eyewitnesses
Tracy Bird (MD)
Tracy discusses the twenty-five commonalities found after doing over six hundred interviews with Former Feds Group. She states this was “genocide of those who would not comply with the vaccine.” Then Tracy yells, “They did NOT DIE FROM COVID!” She motions to the eyewitnesses that will follow, and then Ms. Bird passionately lists the twenty-five commonalities.

This is Briana's testimony, during the first half of the day, but she asked me, Cheri Martin, to write this for her, she is adding the emotional side of the day to everything & this way she wasn't writing her own story, too.
Briana MacDowell Ross (GA)
Briana drove across country, with her three children, from Georgia to San Antonio, TX to honor her husband, introducing the children, Wyatt, America and Kaiden, to the crowd. Jason Ross was a former Marine, a strong and healthy young man, 36 years old, loved by everyone he met. When the family got sick in October 2021 Jason just did not bounce back the way everyone else did. Becoming concerned because he was having breathing problems, they tried the Walk in Clinic and Urgent Care, but were referred to the hospital for oxygen therapy. Briana was confident that she was informed, just be firm, no Remdesivir, no vent. This is our hospital where our children were born, it will be okay. She quickly realized it was not okay. Jason was heavily sedated, agreeing to everything the doctors did. After he had passed when she received his records it just became more infuriating. On the night that Jason was admitted they claimed that he had an underlying kidney injury and was not a candidate for Remdesivir, but the following day they began the course of Remdesivir that spiraled him downhill. In December 2021, when everyone was getting the Omicron strain, because she had set up her house with all the medications they would need, she was able to save five friends, two of which had lower oxygen saturation than Jason had. Briana knows that she could have saved her husband by being prepared and never trusting their hometown hospital.
Steve Dettle (CA)
Steve wants to talk about the “after” and his “happy ending.” He lost his wife Christmas 2021. Steve refers to Elijah, God came to him when he could not go on anymore. God fed him, let him sleep, mourn, and finally said, “let’s go back to work.” He tells the audience, “All of you did that for me!” Steve got meals from church people, and he was glad that they left him alone to mourn right after. Then, he got back up, found the C19 Widows and Widowers group, and Grief Share. He began helping others - just like when he was in AA – it helps to heal and recover. Steve met Katrin Crum soon after they began a daily devotion and praying together, then they fell in love. Both Katrin and her husband, and Steve and his wife, had plans to retire and travel. So, Steve and Kat vowed to go to every one of the fifty states and pray with each of us.
Patty Lamar (OK)
Patty first shows pictures of her husband with Sharpie marker writing “NO REMDESIVIR.” Dr. Witcher tried to help him in the hospital, but in the end, he referred her to CHBMP. When Patty got the medical and coding list and charges, she saw Remdesivir. One day she woke up with the “Battle Hymn of the Republic” stuck in her head. “Battle” was a message from God, Patty explains. God also told her, “It’s ok, something good is going to come from this.” On a personal note, I received the exact same message from God in the hospital too. Patty said that later, she was reading the Bible and came across the Book of Jude. She found it interesting that she had never much read that Book. “Ray Lamar is gonna be riding shotgun. All our loved ones will be first-hand witnesses, y’all!” I must agree. In fact, this is a vision that the Lord gave me, and it came as I had to tell my children that their Daddy was with Jesus. I absolutely adore Patty Lamar, and besides all my previous similarities with her story, I love her use of scripture throughout her speech.

Brad Geyer pulled Lisa Burnham’s sister, Lynn Pipkins, to the stage, at the last minute because her grandbaby was life flighted to Jacksonville Hospital and Brad wanted all of us to pray together. She kept calling Brad “that FBI guy” and I could not stop laughing when I watched the Rumble video a second time. At the rally, I was appalled, because she told us how a “Cheer Dad” yelled at her sister, Lisa, a protocol widow, “What are you even doing here?!” and made her cry. “Cheer Dad” was angry because the column of people who had lost their loved ones to hospital homicide where lining up in the lower level of the convention center as they proceeded to the escalator, crowding the teenage cheerleader competitors who were using another area in the building. So, Brad stepped up and gave the crowd a speech beginning with, “Ok Cheer Dads, listen up…” and I am rolling on the floor laughing. All I could think is, ‘that is going to be embarrassing for that cheer dad to watch on his judgement day.’ Then, we prayed for the baby. I reached out to Lisa Burnham on April 20th, to check on the baby, and she told me the following: “my sister’s precious little granddaughter is still on the liver transplant list. But thankfully she has been able to be at home more and visits the hospital weekly and has a procedure every two weeks. Thank you for your prayers and concern. We are trusting our Lord in all things.” She also told me that another Cheer mom and Dad approached her right after the “Cheer Dad’s” rant. Lisa said, “they looked deeply at me and sincerely said, ‘I am so very sorry. Really, so very sorry.’ I know they were sincere about my husband, and I feel like they were trying to also apologize for that cheer dad.” She continued to say that she has no doubt the Cheer Dad wishes he did not say what he said, and she thinks it was a big lesson for him.

Dr. Urso knows that they “could have been treated it right from the beginning.” He says the blood clots, inflammation, all of it, could have been treated correctly from the start of the virus. Dr. Urso shares that his own father was killed by the hospital protocols. He called the hospitals “killing fields” and the protocols were “ridiculous.” Dr. Urso is very gracious and gives thanks to everyone at the rally, and he ends by saying, “We are going to win!” I must agree.

Now we are moving into one of my favorite groups of heroes: the Whistleblowers and Advocates.
Ali Shultz - Hands for Health and Freedom
Ali begins with an audio clip from a medical board about her father-in-law: lack of hydration – nothing until she begged for several days -, starvation, lowering the standard of care purposefully for payouts from the CARES ACT, father was isolated 24 days when the recommended isolation period was only 10 days. She said that she “had never experienced such evil as I did in that hospital. But I also had never experienced the Holy Spirit work through me in such a powerful way, preparing me for this battle, just like all of you.” That was one of my favorite quotes from the whole weekend, because that was, concisely, EXACTLY how I felt at the hospital as well. Ali also made such a wonderful point about the victims being “treated using an algorithm that maximized profit, even with complete denial of therapeutics that work.” She went on to say that we have authority over our own bodies, and these are “war crimes”! Since then, Ali has discovered many natural remedies, and believes in holistic care because a real doctor must treat the whole person. She believes we are entering an era where we must “doctor ourselves,” and she is personally never going to a hospital. Personally, I completely agree, as I said those two exact things in my speech. Ali says, “The expert on your body is YOU!” Ali began an advocacy group and said to call her if we need help in the hospital or to get out of the hospital. Shultz gives a call to action: “Please join me and refuse all PCR tests! Educate yourself!” Lastly, she refers to the Book of Esther; God turns all evil to good. Haman’s evil plans turned around on him.

RN Kimberly Overton – Remnant Nursing Services
Kimberly has been an ICU and Critical Care nurse on the front lines for twenty-six years! She states that medical mismanagement, not Covid, is what is killing patients in hospitals. Kim asks a rhetorical question, “If it was actually Covid killing all these people, why are we not picking up bodies on the streets, in cars, in large masses?!” She continues to say the “hospital holocaust” is what kills people, and “ventilators are the new gas chambers.” Kimberly believes that nurses should have done more, and she wishes they would have said “No!” as soon as they banned family members and any advocates for the patients. “I answer to a much higher authority than the ANA, FDA, and CDC.” Nurse Kim gives several calls to action; one is joining her to get in front of as many elected officials as we can to remove this liability protection. “Instead of begging for change”, she says, “I created my own path.” Too many are frustrated with the “sick care system,” as Kim calls it, and she created a concierge nursing service: Remnant Nursing Services. She guarantees compassionate care, stating it will be 90% passion 10% skill. She says she was once only one nurse, and we are not “one” of anything any longer.

Natalie Jones, Amy Jones, and Nurse Erin: The Voiceless Documentary
Natalie Jones and Amy Jones lost their mother to the hospital protocols. Amy is a film student, and they decided to expose this atrocity.
Nurse Erin is from Florida, but she is a travel nurse and ended up on the front lines in New York City, when the “pandemic” began. She was horrified at what she witnessed, and she felt helpless. Erin said no one would listen to her, so she decided she would expose it. She got an attorney and put on “spy glasses.” Erin wants to give a voice to the voiceless – our loved ones. “I am going to fight until my last breath. I am never going to give up on you or your loved ones!”
The Voiceless Documentary is packed full of testimonials from eyewitnesses, whistleblower nurses, incriminating recordings of doctors and nurses, one molecular biologist who worked for Big Pharma for 20 years, and more. It stopped me in my tracks, and this documentary clip absolutely enthralled me the whole time. It lasted about 20 minutes.
www.thevoicelessdocumentary.org
Renee Rutherford (NC)
Renee was a registered nurse at the hospital which killed her husband, Tim Rutherford. After the nurse administered Remdesivir, Tim had a sharp respiratory decline within two hours. Even she was not allowed to stay because it was “hospital policy.” Renee had her husband transferred to another hospital, but the terrible treatment continued. She explains how having someone that you love is with you is a critical part of healing. Renee says, “it is well known that healing is much more successful with family.” Renee had more to say, but she cut her speech short as the schedule was running late at this point. It was too bad, I wanted to hear more from her, especially as a nurse for many years. Her voice is so soft and sweet, and I just wanted to give her a huge hug.
Glory Towns – Survivor (FL)
Glory is a survivor of the hospital protocols from Florida, and she is an experienced nurse. She went to the ER for nausea and vomiting, but the doctor diagnosed her with double pneumonia. Glory says her oxygen saturation was 99%, but they put her on a Bipap, Remdesivir, and a ventilator, then psychiatric drugs! The doctor four point tied her down, which is illegal. Nurses neglected her, they did no rounds; she had no food, no water, and they never flipped her. Glory had bedsores. She could not call anyone. When she called the nurses button, they had come in and say, “quit doing that!” Glory shares a testimony of Jesus talking to her, and it hit home for me because I also have a testimony about Jesus in the hospital. After days, or weeks, of torture, the doctor said, “isn’t she dead yet?” Also, “Why don’t you just die? You would be so much better off.” The doctor called her husband and said, “get ready for the funeral – Glory has a .05% chance to live.” Miraculously, God healed her. “He uses me because I have a big mouth!” Glory states proudly. She spent two months in the hospital, then she went to a rehab, which was a nursing home. Her nurses never came when she called. Home nursing is where she progressed. She had to relearn how to walk, talk, and use the bathroom. I took five months. She refers to Ephesians 5:7, “expose them!” She has her own international radio show on a Christian Station: Truth Be Told Network. Glory ended with a lovely poem “from the Lord.” Her whole story was extremely powerful! Glory is a strong warrior for God. When she was cued to “wrap it up”, since the schedule was running behind, she responded, “No! I’m not done! Jesus told me to come here and speak and I am going to finish!” Her reaction was formidable because I happened to caravan with Glory, riding with Leslie Batts, and they drove to the rally from Florida. We met in Mobile, Alabama, and I followed them. It was quite a drive – we drove overnight, leaving home Thursday night, arriving in San Antonio Friday night. Thursday night/Friday morning, we tried to sleep at a rest area for two hours, in our vehicles’ seat. We went through all kinds of obstacles to get there. Unfortunately, we had other people that Jesus also told to “come there and speak”, but they were cut short.

Denise Fritter (TX)
Denise’s youngest daughter, Jamie, was only 36 years old when the hospital murdered her. Jamie was a devoted mom, stepmom, sister, aunt, friend, and daughter, her mother tells. “I’m not a grieving mother”, she says, and then she gets much louder, yelling, “I’m a pissed off mother!” I love that so much, that I am going to use it, changing the word “mother” to “widow.” Denise proposes three questions to the audience: “How much is your child’s life worth? How much is the future of your child’s life worth? How much is your grandbaby, that has now been taken away from you, worth?” I can feel Denise’s pain; there is such power in her words and voice.
Sue Roberson (OK)
Sue’s brother, Michael Hood was the oldest son, born in Germany, and he graduated high school in Germany. Michael “had a heart of gold” and just loved to help people in need. He was the father of five children and seven grandchildren, and he moved to Oklahoma to help Sue and their dad take care of their mom. Michael is an army war veteran who served in Iraq in 2008. He went to the hospital for dialysis for his kidney problems, but they tested him four times for Covid, or until they got a positive. Remdesivir has a 53% mortality rate for people with no kidney problems. These doctors gave Michael a double dose of Remdesivir, that is known to cause kidney failure anyway. Sue is a part of the Task Force for Former Feds.
4 hour 34 min Dr. Jane Ruby (2nd time showing recording)
Dr. Ruby pointed out her early work as a medical researcher for 20 years, if one animal died during testing the drug was pulled from the trial. Compared to the standard of the remdesivir trials that killed more Africans than Ebola at a 53.1% mortality rate, how did this become the unquestionable standard of care? She also lamented the Blanket Waiver of Patient's Rights directed under the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services leading to the abuse and neglect of over a million patients. Which is going to make effective redress for that abuse and neglect tougher. Dr. Ruby ends with positive words for us and pledges her support.
Stacy Russell (CO)
Stacy tells her heartbreaking story, told as if her husband Don had spoken himself. He felt the hospital treated him like a zoo animal, only visible behind a window. The treating physician, upon finding out he was unvaccinated, told him “You deserve what you get”. Only after he died was his family allowed to see him. Stacy applied for his VA benefits but was turned down because she made $2 too much the year before. Heartbroken and alone, she is trying to make a life for herself and her family.
https://rumble.com/v2i4guo-eye-witness-to-crimes-against-humanity-stacie-russell.html
Peggy Hokett (OK)
Peggy points out all the extra bonuses the hospital earned for the various procedures and medications that they used on her husband, Ray. These hospital bonuses include the bonus for “Covid” on his death certificate. Despite refusing the ventilator four times Ray did get vented. His nurses also tied him to the bed! Peggy asks, “Where were his Constitutional rights and his God given rights”?
Leslie Batts (OK)
In only 11 days Paul Batts, 45, was gone leaving Leslie with a 9-year-old son to raise alone. Her attempts to find someone to investigate found that the hospital stated they had done nothing wrong, the medical board said it found no actionable violations, the nursing board can't confirm they received her complaint, the health department only over sees the hospital, police department says they aren't doctors they can't investigate, the sheriff's department says it's a civil matter, the D.A. only takes cases from law enforcement and the Attorney General won't return calls. Yet she is now alone, left to raise their son. Leslie is unique from most widows because she thoroughly went through every single channel of reporting, with no success, before any of us had even tried. She saved me countless hours of wasted time and energy. Also, she helped me navigate the journey, to the rally, from Georgia to Texas, and I might not have made it without her presence. She and her husband used to drive a truck together across country, so she had experience. Leslie is a strong, smart, articulate, fearless warrior, and I am so grateful for her.
Nicole Baxter (SC)
Nicole’s speech gave me ALL the feels! Her story is unique because her father was a doctor, and Nicole and her mother were witnesses to the entire hospital stay. Nicole's father, Dr. Mark Leski, a caring, wound care physician, went to the same Georgia hospital he worked in for medical treatment. This hospital group is the same hospital group in which my husband was killed. Dr. Leski was the type of doctor that would pay for medication for his patients who could not afford it. As a nurse, Nicole and her family witnessed lies, hostility, anger, and neglect. The medical staff took protein shakes away from Dr. Leski, and they outright said that “he deserved what he got” because he was unvaccinated. Even upon request, the doctors and nurses refused preventative pressure wound care. Nicole's question, “if we could see this maltreatment of a patient when the staff knew we were watching, what was happening to patients that were not allowed any family in?”
Peggy Springer (KS)
The first hospital moved John Springer from Kansas to Oklahoma against Peggy's wishes, but the doctors and nurses shamed her for expressing her wishes by saying, “You want him to live, right”? Although they both advocated for no ventilator John texted Peggy “Everything is NOT alright, I love you” just before they ventilated him. Among John's other neglect and abuse John died with a broken nose. The medical records never mention this, nor did anyone ever explain to Peggy how that happened. Peggy has since then watched one daughter walk down the aisle without her father and the other give up on her rodeo circuit without her dad to assist and coach.
