Children’s Health Defense has been streaming the video from the courtroom — there have been some problems with the audio because of a change of venue on the 9th June.
You have the name of the nurse being sued wrong. It is Hollee McInnis, not Suzy. I am not from Wisconsin (I am in NC), but I am very surprised the plantiffs had to get a doctor from Texas and a nurse from Florida (or California) as their experts. The nurse expert didn't even have a BS in nursing, which is very strange in 2025. In North Carolina, juries hate outsiders coming in to pass judgement on NC doctors and nurses. Maybe the feeling in Wisconsin is different, but if I were a juror, I would wonder about that.
I wonder if this kind of behaviour was indeed quite common in hospitals during Covid, so that all the nurses who disagreed with these protocols were fired or resigned. Perhaps it is very hard to find a Wisconsin nurse who is still employed who is willing to testify against the type of thing they themselves cooperated in doing.
The situation in Florida was quite different I believe.
Everything Suzi Eichinger said made a lot of sense, however. She appear to be a registered Nurse which is all one would need I would think.
There are two huge medical centers in Wisconsin...the University of Wisconsin in Madison and the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee. It's hard for me to believe that not one nurse from one of those medical schools wouldn't be able to testify on the plantiffs' behalf. The number that worked in ICU in those days would number greater than 100. I think it would sit better with a jury to have a local expert. Most nurses nowadays have at least a BS in nursing. Many also have an MS. To get a diploma nurse from Florida as the expert just seems astonishing to me. It would make me think the plantiff had a extremely difficult time finding an expert. Ditto for a physician expert having to be recruited from Texas.
Maybe, but their nursing expert was horrendous. She had no four year degree, admitted she had no knowledge of Wisconsin nursing customs, and paled in comparison to the defense's nursing expert.

Sorry about that -- mistake corrected now.

I think you must be right they may well have had a difficult time finding an expert in Wisconsin…
I really doubt they would have been able to get a Winsconsin nurse to put her/his job on the line.
