Ohio Court Kills Kid
A disabled child survived a terminal illness for years under expert care—until family court intervened. In Summit County, Ohio, a judge ignored a written, life-or-death warning from one of America’s top brain doctors and ordered Ryder Belisle removed from the hospital. Thirty-two days later, Ryder was dead. This investigation exposes how judicial pride, CPS corruption, Title IV incentives, and a violent felon father combined to produce what many now call judicial homicide. The cascade to death was medical. The cascade to disaster was judicial.
