This is one of the most powerful images that I've ever created. It is a still from a 4K movie that I took of @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus on the 1st day of her trial, Aug 14, 2023. Ordinary Canadians prayed for Grus outside the court. Grus is charged with 'unauthorized' investigations into the link between infant deaths and mRNA vaccines. @realChrisBrunet has the story... https://dossier.today/p/trudeau-regime-puts-canadian-detective

Ottawa Police Officer, Helen Grus is facing a charge of Discreditable Conduct for allegedly seeking links between Covid vaccine and deaths of children. As part of the SACA (Sexual Assault Child Abuse) unit, their mandate is to investigate all sudden and unexpected deaths of children under the age of five. These investigations are crucial and mandated by law. Her upcoming appearance is Oct 30th -Nov 3rd 2023 at 9:30 am at 211 Huntmar Dr. in Ottawa in the community boardroom. They have DENIED online viewing access to the public and are only allowing in person viewing. If you’re in the Ottawa area, please attend to support Cst. Grus. Constable Grus has been DENIED legal funding by the Ottawa Police Association (OPA) board of directors. The OPA dues are mandatory for all officers and civilians of the Ottawa Police Service (OPS) and the OPA has a duty to provide “fair representation” to its paying members.

On Monday, Trials Officer Chris Renwick made an important statement during the trial of @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus... “This hearing cannot and will not be a venue to, for opinions and theories linking vaccines to child deaths.” Here are my edited notes of the incident... At about 1:29pm Trials Officer Renwick said: "Miss van den Berg, my pause and hesitation here and this is, it's all coming back to the same issue, and I understand. You want to establish the motivation, and the rationale for it. And even in her own community, Detective Grus is very candid and talks about the motivation and why she did certain things. The question for me is: Does that amount to misconduct? But in what you're getting at here, this is all going back to what the witnesses and time again, even the medical witnesses you want to call it to do with this whole thing of linking, this theme of linking child and infant deaths to the vaccine vaccination and the cause. That speaks to motivation, but it doesn't really speak to anything else, but motivation. And the whole question about the motivation to justify the actions or, that's something that I'm going to have to decide. But spending this amount of time for every witness and it's just not helping one bit and it's becoming almost a sidebar to this this hearing about. This hearing cannot and will not be a venue to, for opinions or theories linking vaccines to child deaths. And this thing, asked me about the details. I'm not sure if this is one of the the cases that you, It probably is that Detective Grus was is being alleged to have interfered with. But if that's the case, then let's just cut through it and get to ask this witness questions as she conducted an investigation in this child death investigation at this time. And let's get to the details of what is relevant to this. To go into the details isn't helpful. And it's it's difficult for a lot of people. And it's not necessarily." Defence Attorney Bath-Sheba van den Berg replied... "I agree this is difficult to a lot of people and certainly very difficult to the victims. In this situation, you have some unanswered questions that don't have clear answers. And I say that with compassion, and really do say that with compassion. And I disagree with you, respectfully Sir, with this motivation argument. That is a very interesting choice of words. I look forward to presenting my submission in regards to why we need the experts, in particular the medical experts. Because the charge of discreditable conduct, of professional misconduct, is a regulatory offense. And they are actually strict liability offenses, which means they are 'actus reus' based, right? But I keep on hearing something that sounds like the intent, motivation. Or even here in the Investigative Report of Sergeant Arbuthnot, where he concludes on the allegation of discreditable conduct that she was influenced by her own views in an investigation. That really speaks to a mens rea component to this offense, which is, I would submit on the record, improper. But since it's being made over and over again..." The above quotes were taken from my quick notes made at the Detective Grus Hearing on October 30, 2023. The notes have been edited for clarity and are not a transcript. They represent my memory of what I heard at the time. These notes will differ from notes made by other journalists, and from the official transcript. Both these notes and the official transcript should be vetted against any audio recordings for accuracy before being relied upon.

"The Shaamini Shakedown" #ShaaminiShakedown Said twice on the record today at the hearing of @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus - in reference to @CBCNews journalist Shaamini Yogaretnam's ultimatum to the Ottawa Police. In March 2022, Yogaretnam gave the Ottawa Police 24 hours to contact parents of the nine deceased infants before the CBC published her article and exposed stolen confidential police information about the deaths. CBC Hypocrisy & Crocodile Tears. If anyone is to blame for any ‘further victimization’ of parents who lost a child, it is the CBC, journalist Shammini Yogaretnam, and her rogue Ottawa Police sources. Detective Helen Grus had nothing to do with the contrived public spectacle and deliberately manufactured outrage fomented by the the CBC. Detective Grus did not criminally and maliciously release confidential police information into the public domain: her corrupt police colleagues and the CBC did that. Yogaretnam, the CBC, and their rogue police sources ALL KNEW that the OPS Grus investigation was proceeding normally and properly. They knew there was no cover-up of the Grus internal investigation. Therefore their motivations had nothing to do with whistleblowing, protecting the public interest, or ensuring an unbiased and professional investigation of the allegations against Detective Helen Grus. Yogaretnam and the CBC wanted to break a big story so badly that they didn’t care if it hurt the poor parents who lost a child, or interfered with and influenced the ongoing OPS Professional Standards investigation. Given all the circumstances and the stories published by the CBC, I have no doubt that it was the CBC’s and Yogaretnam’s intent to foment public outrage against Detective Grus – to influence the OPS internal investigation and to pressure the Ottawa Police to charge the officer. The CBC and Yogaretnam even defamed Detective Grus - calling her 'Rogue' and publishing false headlines about Grus's investigation. Thus the term "Shaamini Shakedown". @shaaminiwhy Photo: Shaamini Yogaretnam

BREAKING 🚨🚨🚨 At the disciplinary hearing of @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus. Prosecutor Vanessa Stewart is providing a presentation objecting to the Expert Witnesses called by the Grus defence team. Miss Stewart is unintentionally making the case that the Ottawa Police should immediately launch a criminal investigation into the potential connection between the mRNA COVID 'vaccines' and serious injuries and deaths of Canadians - and the circumstances of how those 'vaccines' were approved, purchased, and mandated. The prosecutor read into the record evidence of the professional medical studies and opinions of the expert medical witnesses - concerning serious adverse effects of the mRNA treatments, including upon babies in the womb, and infants at the breast. Evidence of a legal expert concerns how the 'vaccines' were approved in a manner that can only be considered negligent - even criminally negligent. All this was placed onto the public record by Prosecutor Vanessa Stewart. In my opinion, the continued refusal of Ottawa Police officers to investigate the tsunami of available evidence in this case amounts to Neglect of Duty under the Police Services Act of Ontario.

🚨 Breaking News! 🚨 I'm on my way to the Ottawa police trial of Helen Grus, which had to start because Officer Grus was told by her superior not to use internal documents as part of her evidence. 😱 The court officer (not a judge, I forgot what he's called in a police tribunal) didn't even know what 'litigation privilege' was! 🤯 The hearing starts at 12:30, and I'm sure it'll be interesting. Stay tuned for updates! 🔍 #OttawaPoliceTrial #HelenGrus #LitigationPrivilege 🗣️
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
12:30 the Hearing Officer is advising us of the publication ban. Hearing Officer:” at 11:42 several motions one being to have Ms Steward removed of the prosecution! Prosecutor Stewart:” is asking that motion rules be followed. Rule 15, counsel has said there is no rules. At this point that the tribunal to establish an immediate rules. Motions are to be filed 15 days in advance. It is unprofessional to serve documents last minute. I would ask perhaps we can set a date, and I don’t believe it is proper to file a motion. I am asking for procedures Def van-den Berg:” This rules does not apply here. I recall a motion for disclosure was denied and an application for a 3 rd party application. My friend is trying to continue to delay. this will cost our client time cost and resources. Hearing Officer:” i find it problematic to receive a motion o this weight. Def van-den Berg:” i find it problematic that my client was threatened Hearing Officer:” please do not interrupt. This has become problematic. This motion has thrown an abrupt stop. I was going to rule on the Ottawa police documents in her affidavit, i was going to hear your submissions compel inspector OT to appear. I will need to settle and decide this motion. I don’t’ know how to suggest we move forward. Def van-den Berg:” I can allow this motion to be addressed by way of writing. Hearing Officer:” i am not sure if that is the approved way to proceed. There are some drawbacks to that. Prosecutor Stewart:” I object to that, I am prepared to establish rules for the hearing of these motions. then from there, I am opposed to this motion.
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Prosecutor Stewart:” is asking for proper disclosure. Hearing Officer:” how do we proceed with the hearing knowing that motion is there Def van-den Berg:” there have been three other prosecutors who were designated and who my motion doesn’t demand a stop or a stay in the proceedings because there are prosecutors… Hearing Officer:” yes but it would entail a different prosecutor police documents within the affidavit, or is Ms. Stewart arguing that? Def van-den Berg:” I think it is important that we are in limbo Hearing Officer:” I do agree on motions and this will not occur again. A motion that stops the progress of the hearing Prosecutor Stewart:” it would be unfair and the threats as the removal of the prosecutor. Those arguments need to be made first. The motion for removal of prosecution must happen first. And the rules need to be laid out. We need to establish rules first. Make sure there is fairness on the OPS side. Def van-den Berg:” I only submitted this motion in light of the wording that was used… “notice” my client on notice… and my client would be in “breach” yet she couldn’t point out the breach. The test for procedural in SCC…” Prosecutor Stewart:” I object… Def van-den Berg:” there is a remedy for this here… Hearing Officer:” I don’t want to hear the Supreme Court of Canada remedy. I agree with Ms. Stewart I am compelled to give a decision of the motions received. SIDEBAR/ this hearing officer does not sound confident in the words he is speaking. He is relying too heavily on Stewart.
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Hearing Officer:” the rules of practice as exhibit 79. “ Prosecutor Stewart:” i am going to rely on my submissions that pertain to experts. when the PSA is silent the SPPA governs. Rule 1.1 a date to hear the motion must be obtained and the tribunal may direct the procedure to be followed. And unless the tribunal permits parties bringing the motion should bring a factum and book of authorities 14 days prior. With a response time of 10 days. Steward is listing off a list of instances. “This still gives the tribunal flexibility this allows the tribunal to part from the rules. In the event of a last minute requests.” SIDEBAR/ Wouldn’t the defence’s last minute motion to have the prosecution removed fall under “last minute” based on her words and actions yesterday? Hearing Officer:” so the date from the tribunal should be 14 days, and the response, does it cover of the response? Prosecutor Stewart:” yes the response is 10 days, Hearing Officer:” okay thank you for that submission. Ms. Def van-den Berg will you doing the submissions? Def van-den Berg:” yes, I will need 5 minutes please” Hearing Officer:” Okay recess for 5 minutes.
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Hearing Officer:” 1:17 back on record Def van-den Berg:” here is our response based on my friend’s submissions. We disagree with the rule requiring a date be set to hear the motion. This is at odds with the flow of the proceedings. This would be onerous to have defence counsel fly from alberta to hear these motions. We are agreeable to the motion being heard in writing. The next rules are the timelines, we propose 7 days as opposed to 14 days. it would be onerous and not in flow with the proceedings. Looking at the timeline, the moving party files 7 days prior to the next day, the response in 4 days and an opportunity to reply. We agree to the list as to the type of motions. 2 days to reply. We don’t agree with the requirement for service moot. We have been filing at this late in the proceedings. We are in the 3rd week. We would like to introduce that in exceptional circumstance on submissions of the moving party, the Hearing Officer can amend the timelines for motions delivered orally or in writing. A couple of things, my friend is bringing a motion to bring these rules but this is an application Hearing Officer:” you are saying this is an application ? Def van-den Berg:” it is, you must make a ruling. Hearing Officer takes a note Def van-den Berg:” additionally bringing …. Sidebar - things are moving fast. I missed some notes. Def van-den Berg brings the point that Ms. Steward is bringing a motion outside of the very rules she is brining. Hearing Officer:” in fairness ms Stewart is the counsel who prepared to come today. To have another prosecutor do it would put them at a disadvantage Def van-den Berg:” i know another prosecutor that Christine was cc and the ops legal team have worked together, and they are experienced prosecutors in this proceeding. I don’t see an issue. Defence Ector: stands to distribute documents. Prosecutor Stewart:” object to this and there is proper procedure. Hearing Officer:” there was an objection coming in. Where is the unfairness of that? Def van-den Berg:” this is not just. We need to give mr. Ector a chance to speak. Defence Ector: I need to make some submissions” Hearing Officer:” we have not completed the application? Defence Ector: This is really important. Def van-den Berg:” we need to let Mr. Ector say what he wants to say what to say. Now we cannot because of our motion to have Stewart removed. then there is ruling on motions which will cause us to adjourn today. My submissions are directly what Mr. Ectorspeak Defence Ector: Can I just talk Hearing Officer:” not yet. Prosecutor Stewart:” this document Defence Ector: I just want to speak, can you let me talk? Hearing Officer:” when i am ready for you, you can speak Prosecutor Stewart:” it is not appropriate as this was disclosed. SIDEBAR / THIS IS A UNBELIEVABLE. Def van-den Berg:” please give the floor to mr. Ector Defence Ector: We would like to go against the Criminal code… Hearing Officer:” interrupts him. We are not hearing this in light of the motion. what you are doing we were prepared to have a decision on the documents. You have chosen to put in a motion, it would not be prudent for Ms. Stewart to continue until this is resolved. Defence Ector: What we are talking about is criminal Prosecutor Stewart:” objections Defence Ector: I am standing before the court as an officer of the court, we have seen a crime. I am going to report. Hearing Officer:” we are adjourned in recess. ‘ Defence Ector: I was witness to a crime, I am going to report it! Lawyer and Grus are off to file a report. OMG!!!!!
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Hearing Officer: just re-entered the room. Still waiting. Looks like he is reading his email. Hearing Officer:” okay back on record. Alright it is 1:58 and we are back on record. I will not address at this time, the motion for removal. I am going to give a rulings on rules for motions. There needs to be some parameters set on motions. In any event, we would not, there is not way we would be able to hear it without outright dismissing it. I am prepared to hear the motion. It cannot be today. it is a heavy and onerous motion. I will send a note …....(inaudible)... I think there is some benefit that any kind of rules on motions. I see the value in the internal police commission rules. It is the appeal body. They are a sound foundation to this body of rules.” Hearing Officer: is listing off the motion rules.
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Hearing Officer:” does your motion have any documents” Def van-den Berg:” hands up some documents to Hearing Officer as an exhibit …. Prosecutor Stewart:” I object to this in light of the rules …. Hearing Officer:” I will take them but not file them… There is lots of arguing back and forth. I can whole heartedly say OPS is very protected by the Hearing Officer. This is NOT JUSTICE. Not one bit.
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
The hearing officer stutters a lot when speaking, and it isn't a medical issue but more of an 'I don't know what the heck I am doing' kind of situation. Wow!" Hearing Officer: has finished the tribunal’s “new rules” 3 weeks into a trial I will note. Hearing Officer:” Alright, so we need to set a date to hear the motion. I put some thought into during the motion. Written as opposed to verbally. But i am open to the position of counsel. There are 3 options, in person, in writing, or video conference. It is your motion Def van-den Berg I will hear your position Def van-den Berg:” we submitted the motion in writing and we would like this motion to be heard combined in writing and orally via video conference Hearing Officer:” what do you mean by both?” SIDEBAR / how does he not know this…smh Def van-den Berg:” the first party rule it can direct procedure. i am inviting the officer to hear the consolidated motion. At the outset documents were written and heard orally. Hearing Officer:” ms Stewart your position? Prosecutor Stewart:” OPS is of the position this should be conducted in person hearing. We have been doing in person hearings for 3 weeks. I’ve been extremely flexible in trying to respond. It is prudent that we continue in person. That is our position in person. Def van-den Berg:” Microsoft teams was used in the beginning. There is a cost to our client, we are asking for one day. Prosecutor Stewart:” I will object to this Hearing Officer:” we are going to need to set some dates. We can do in person immediately preceding the next date. Def van-den Berg:” sorry we are in a conundrum we filed it today… Prosecutor Stewart:” i object to this being filed, it must be 14 days before the motion Hearing Officer:” what is stopping us today Prosecutor Stewart:” there are ops documents that were not disclosure request. There is a big issue with any of those documents being submitted. Def van-den Berg:” Rules are in place to ensure all parties are treated equally. The clock does start today. My friend has a copy of my motion. We can appear in 14 days via conference Prosecutor Stewart:” the rules are set out about the service of the motion. This is a motion I have not read yet. It contains some strong allegations. They should both be filed for days. It could be there for months, we need to set a day. You just made the rule, 14 days. SIDEBAR he also set the rules that he can amend them should he need to Prosecutor Stewart:” the mode of this tribunal is in person. Def Ector:” I have many things that i need to do before we return to this tribunal. What i think makes sense, we have a hearing on the motion, and we can appear electronically so we can set dates for the hearing proper. Def van-den Berg:” there is no need to make a motion. Now your rules are being used as a weapon. Prosecutor Stewart:” i have received a number of motion in a short timeframe. I am no longer doing this, THE RULES EXIST SIDEBAR / Holy hell, can someone let Detective Benson and all other detectives investigating Freedom convoy trials to do THE SAME. FOLLOW THE RULES!
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Going over dates for the motion to be heard for Prosecutor Stewart to be removed. Hearing Officer:” what is your availability? Prosecutor Stewart:” I may be available the week of the 12th I will not be available until April. Hearing Officer:” Let’s look at those dates Feb 13 and 15? Thank you that is progress. I want to get back to the whole issue the documents, the OPS documents in the affidavit. I was prepared to rule on it today after submissions are all heard. I am prepared to make a decisions. Def van-den Berg:” absolutely your honour, we have more submissions to make.” Hearing Officer:” I understand the letter sent to detective Grus that are outstanding. It is clear it would be a mistake to hear those submissions in light of your motion.” I would not be fair for me to ask her to stand down and step out while you made those submissions on those motion. I can’t move on until this motion is completed. We will get the motion resolved, the OPS documents in the affidavit resolved and the Prosecutor Stewart issue resolved. Def Ector:” provided there isn’t a mistrial… Prosecutor Stewart:” so do we book a day for that? Hearing Officer:” you’re saying there might be more than one motion? Prosecutor Stewart:” well we might need two days so lets book that now. If counsel is planning to file evidence, that we may have a problem with . We may need 2 day. Hearing Officer:” i think one day will be sufficient. We are looking at Feb 13 or 15. Let’s take 10. Recess for 10 minutes while lawyers pick a date for the next appearance / motions to be heard.
@LegallyPurdy - Legally Purdy
Hearing Officer:” 2:48 pm we are back. Did you get dates? Prosecutor Stewart:” I will have to get back to next week. I need to move some things around and if i can’t do that we are looking at April.

🚨BREAKING🚨 No Public Broadcast Detective Grus Trial Public Deceived and Betrayed. Open Court Principle and Transparency Dead 100+ Public and Journalists expected to show for tiny 15-seat Kanata boardroom Today @OttawaPolice announced that there will be NO INTERNET BROADCAST of the Detective Helen Grus Disciplinary Hearing starting Monday, May 27, 2024. Ottawa Police have for the last two months deceived the public with false information that the hearing would be moved to a larger facility, and be publicly broadcast to ensure transparency of the trial. Then they cancelled the large Ottawa venue and moved the hearing back to the tiny boardroom - dangling the promise that the proceedings would be broadcast - especially as Detective Grus is expected to testify in her own defense on Monday. Now on the Friday before the Monday trial we learn the truth: 15 seats, no public broadcast, 100+ public and journalists wanting the 15 available seats in the tiny boardroom. OPS led everybody on - deceived us for two months before announcing early this morning that there would be no broadcast. No doubt Ottawa Police saved the 'no broadcast' announcement to the Friday before the trial in hopes that the public and journalists would not make plans to personally attend the hearing in Kanata. The last hearing day in March 2024 saw an overflow crowd of about 70 people. Ottawa Police will not reserve a section for journalists, so members of the public gave up their seats to allow the journalists to cover the event. Although the crowd was peaceful and respectful, Ottawa Police threatened to tow cars from the public parking spaces at the station. Further, the spectators were warned not to park at the nearby Canadian Tire Centre or they would be towed. This reporter has learned that Ottawa Police called the Canadian Tire Centre and effectively communicated to management that the police did not want members of the public to park at the centre! Thus police announced to the crowd that CTC parking was prohibited. In context, the past two months can be seen as an Ottawa Police strategy to limit public access and transparency to this most contentious case and hearing. Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus is charged with ‘Discreditable Conduct’ under the Ontario Police Services Act for conducting “unauthorized” investigations into the sudden deaths of nine infants. The next Hearing is on Monday, May 27, 2024. Grus was investigating any potential connection between the vaccination status of the mothers and the sudden deaths of breastfeeding babies. Ottawa Police shut down her investigation, ordered her to stop, and charged her with an internal disciplinary charge. My independent journalism revealed that Public Health Agency of Canada personnel sought to influence the Ottawa Police investigation of Detective Grus as early as March 2022, and even continuing after she was charged in July of 2022. Full background and all my articles can be found at my website: https://donaldbest.ca/detective-grus-case/

She was charged with insubordination for investigating this spike in deaths despite it being her mandate to investigate Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Want to know what's happenning at the Detective Helen Grus trial? Gong show. The Ottawa Police don't want you to see their biased incompetent adjudicator, nor the completely unfaithful kangaroo court that will rubber-stamp sanctioms against her. I am utterly disgusted with my former employer - The Ottawa Police. Helen Grus is a hero. And you know the irony of this? One day these officers may need the help of their police association because they did the right thing but ended up like Helen Grus - Unfairly charged for doing the right thing. Like Helen Grus, their association may choose not to fund them after they spend their careers paying union dues for legal protection. How do you fix this? During the next Provincial Election in Ontario, vote New Blue Party of Ontario to get accountability in police, healthcare and government.

"I'm a police officer. I'm there to solve and help solve if somebody dies. Especially an innocent little baby... I don't want more babies to die. ... I'm not okay with babies dying and not getting any answers." @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus. Detective Grus is charged with investigating the possible connection between the vaccine status of breastfeeding mothers and the unexplained deaths of nine Ottawa area infants. https://donaldbest.ca/ottawa-police-inspector-hugh-otoole-resigns-amid-witness-tampering-accusations-in-detective-grus-case/

The disciplinary hearing against @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus resumes January 6, 2025 - 3 years after she was suspended for daring to investigate a possible connection between vaccinated mothers & the deaths of breastfeeding infants. So far spectators have seen... - Prosecution witnesses commit perjury. - The head of OPS Professional Standards resign amidst allegations of witness tampering, obstruction of justice, & criminal threats against a witness. - Interference in the police investigation by Public Health Agency of Canada personnel. - Illegal wiretapping of Detective Helen Grus & her family under the anti-terrorism / imminent harm emergency wiretap provisions. - A serious conflict of interest between prosecutor Vanessa Stewart & one of the primary witnesses - who is her sister-in-law! - Prosecutor Vanessa Stewart despicably likening Detective Grus to Serial Rapist-Murderer Russell Williams. - The Hearing Officer disallow every defence expert witness. - The Hearing Officer not allow Detective Grus to examine her own hand-written notes from January 2022 that were made on a date that the prosecution alleges she committed an act of wrongdoing. - A complete coverup by Ottawa Police concerning two officers who criminally supplied confidential police information about the Grus case to CBC reporter Shaamini Yogaretnam. - Neglect of duty by Ottawa Police officers who received the 'Criminal Negligence Causing Bodily Harm and Death' investigation file from Detective Grus - but then hid the evidence and did nothing. Part of the evidence collected by Detective Grus and handed over to Professional Standards Unit detectives was a copy of the Pfizer Documents - that prove Pfizer and some public officials knew the vaccines caused injuries and deaths including to unborn babies in the womb. So much new evidence has come to light in the past three years that vindicates Detective Grus and shows that she was and is a professional doing her job to protect the lives of innocent babies. Yet the Ottawa Police continue targeting this fine officer - who has been forced to pay for her own defence lawyer even though her actions were on duty. The Ottawa Police Association - the police union - abandoned Detective Grus just as they abandoned and betrayed all police personnel who refused to be injected with an experimental genetic treatment that has now been proven deadly. This is probably the most important case in Canadian policing in decades because the outcome decides whether law enforcement officers are free to investigate crimes according to their judgment - or whether the political class controls the daily operations and investigations of individual police officers. We must fill the courtroom every trial day in January - and let Canadians know of the corruption and political pressure involved in the charges against Detective Helen Grus.

Why didn't @CBCNews and other government-paid legacy media report that family members of two of the deceased infants testified FOR Detective Grus at the internal trial? Most Canadians are well aware of the answer - that the legacy media outlets dance to the government's tune with an agenda that has nothing to do with duty to truth or to the public.

🚨Breaking🚨 Prosecutor in Detective Grus Internal Trial Argues For Special Protection From Police Investigations - for Politicians and Government Employees Prosecutor Jessica Barrow argues that police investigation of politicians and government employees is special and should be pre-approved by those in power. I'm being cautious because I have not yet reviewed the full January recordings of the Grus Hearing - but what I've read and heard makes me believe that there will be fireworks today - Friday 10th - when defense lawyer Bath-Sheba van den Berg continues her submissions. @rkraychik, @RobStocki both reported that hired-gun prosecutor Jessica Barrow of the Perley-Robertson @PRHMLaw law firm made statements that because Detective Grus's investigation had "political ramifications" - Grus should have sought permission before proceeding. I have a message for Prosecutor Jessica Barrow... Nobody is above the law, including the politicians and government employees that you believe should be shielded from investigation by individual police officers - unlike other Canadians. In my opinion, Ottawa Police Prosecutor Jessica Barrow endorsed the criminal offences of Obstruct Police and Obstruct Justice. Barrow argues that police investigation of politicians and government employees is special and should be pre-approved by those in power. In @JessicaJBarrow own words... "Her (Detective Grus's) Investigation would have massive political implications..." "...there can be absolutely no doubt that an experienced detective like Detective Grus would understand that the investigation of an allegation of widespread criminal activity by all of the public institutions that serve our community cannot be initiated without at least a conversation with the chain of command. That type of investigation would be one of massive implications and proportions, and with all due respect, would not and could not be put in the hands of one detective in one unit of one police service, and Detective Grus knows that, just like she admits in her cross examination, that if you're a patrol officer and happen upon a homicide, you're not just unilaterally conducting a homicide investigation just because you're a police officer with investigative powers and responsibilities and you happen to be there."

🔥Now Premiering: Explosive Video!🔥 Ottawa Police Prosecutor admits Detective Helen Grus was charged to shield politicians and officials from police investigations. Grus is accused of probing 9 unexplained infant deaths for possible links to COVID vaccines. This shocking @DaveFreedom4 video exposes how @OttawaPolice and Prosecutor Jessica Barrow delivered a chilling on-the-record message to Canada’s 70,000 police officers: “Do NOT investigate matters with political ramifications without permission.” With the trial now over, the stakes couldn’t be higher. Hearing Officer Chris Renwick’s verdict will not just define Grus’s fate and his legacy—it will shape the future of policing in Canada. Watch now. Full video transcript in the next post.

Here is the full transcript. Feel free to copy and distribute both the video and transcript. If you wish a full resolution copy of the video - direct message either me or @DaveFreedom4 Script: Video released January 22, 2025 After 20 years of dedicated service to the city of Ottawa, Police Detective Helen Grus thought she had seen it all. But nothing could have prepared her for the battle of her life. When nine infants tragically died, Grus uncovered chilling evidence suggesting a possible link between the deaths and their mothers’ vaccination status—specifically, the Pfizer vaccines. Her investigation also revealed a troubling oversight: a fellow officer had deviated from established protocol by neglecting to inquire about the vaccine status of the mothers and babies - a standard procedure that had been in place for OVER 50 YEARS. When the Chief Peter Sloly and senior officers deliberately ignored the evidence of infant deaths, Grus became the target of a backlash from the top down. Ottawa Police eventually charged Helen with discreditable conduct, to make an example of her AND TO DETER OTHER OFFICERS FROM CONTINUING HER INVESTIGATION. Meanwhile, Grus was suspended, her reputation dragged through the mud, and her career placed in jeopardy for simply doing the job she was sworn to do. This case is UNPRECEDENTED. Never in Canadian history has a police officer been charged for conducting a professional investigation. Yet that is exactly what happened. Even Ottawa Police prosecutor Jessica Barrow acknowledged that Grus's investigation was halted and charges were brought against her for POLITICAL REASONS. This case will undoubtedly influence the mindset of Canada's 70,000 police officers, prompting them to consider whether certain actions are "too political." Now that Detective Grus’s tribunal has concluded, all eyes are on adjudicator Chris Renwick, who holds her fate in his hands. The decision is set for late February, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Open Letter To: Chris Renwick, Superintendent (Retired) - Adjudicator in the Detective Helen Grus Internal Trial Mr. Renwick, This case will define your legacy. It is a decision that will echo far beyond the confines of this tribunal, influencing the future of policing in Canada and how history judges your role in this critical moment. You stand at a crossroads where moral integrity and adherence to the rule of law should outweigh external pressures or political considerations. Seventy thousand police officers and millions of Canadians are watching, hoping that you will act with courage and fairness. Detective Helen Grus stands accused of discreditable conduct without evidence to support such a charge. Her work was driven by a sworn duty to protect the public, yet she has been met with systemic retaliation instead of recognition for her diligence. This trial risks becoming a symbol of injustice—unless you rise above it. History would remember you as the one who upheld the principle that no corporation, politician, or senior official is above the law—standing in stark contrast to the prosecutor’s final submission that Detective Grus should have informed her supervisors about her inquiry due to its “political ramifications.” The audacity of such a statement cannot be overstated; it suggests that political considerations should dictate what law enforcement investigates. This trial is not just about one officer; it is about the very essence of what it means to serve and protect without fear or favour. Your ruling will set a precedent, whether for justice or for capitulation to POLITICAL expedience and pressure. If ever there was a moment to stand for justice, this is it. The weight of this responsibility is immense, and Canada awaits your decision. Tribunal Adjudicator Superintendent (Retired) Chris Renwick

"One of the most disturbing aspects highlighted in the review is the data from Pfizer’s post-authorization trial. The report reveals that 1,223 deaths and 42,086 injuries were reported within just four days of vaccination" @OttawaPolice Detective Helen Grus was right - and as @TamaraUgo reports, an Alberta government review calls for the immediate halt of COVID mRNA vaccines. Neglect of Duty at the Highest Ottawa Police Ranks During December 2021 and January 2022 meetings, Detective Helen Grus warned Chief Peter Sloly, Deputy Trish Ferguson, and other senior officers that the Pfizer vaccine had never been tested on pregnant women. As a police detective, she expressed concern for the welfare of pregnant women receiving these experimental COVID vaccines. In the context of widespread vaccine mandates and public health policies, Detective Grus highlighted that adverse effects were going unreported, and that persons were not being informed of potential adverse effects – which she described as potentially criminal. As an example she told the senior officers of an Ottawa motorist who had a medical event and collision when driving home from being vaccinated. The motorist died 2 days later. This from evidence presented during the internal trial of Detective Grus – who in July 2022 was charged with one count of ‘discreditable conduct’ for allegedly initiating an ‘unauthorized’ investigation into nine unexplained infant deaths. She was exploring the possibility that the vaccination status of the mothers might be a factor in the fatalities. When the Chief Peter Sloly and senior officers deliberately ignored the evidence of infant deaths, Grus became the target of a backlash from the top down. Ottawa Police eventually charged Helen with discreditable conduct, to make an example of her AND TO DETER OTHER OFFICERS FROM CONTINUING HER INVESTIGATION. Meanwhile, Grus was suspended, her reputation dragged through the mud, and her career placed in jeopardy for simply doing the job she was sworn to do. This case is unprecedented. Never in Canadian history has a police officer been charged for conducting a professional investigation. Yet that is exactly what happened. Even Ottawa Police prosecutor Jessica Barrow acknowledged that Grus's investigation was halted and charges were brought against her for political reasons. This case will undoubtedly influence the mindset of Canada's 70,000 police officers, prompting them to consider whether certain actions are "too political." Now that Detective Grus’s tribunal has concluded, all eyes are on adjudicator Chris Renwick, who holds her fate in his hands. The decision is set for late February, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.

🚨BREAKING🚨 Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus Found GUILTY "...unauthorized criminal negligence inquiries on public officials were being undertaken by a criminal investigator within SACA." So now police officers are required to obtain permission before investigating public officials? How corrupt. I'm going to have a tea and calm myself before writing my full analysis of this corrupt and biased decision by a corrupt and biased tribunal. You can download the decision from the corrupt @OttawaPolice .... https://ottawapolice.ca/en/Decision-with-Reasons,-Det.-Grus.pdf…

INSIDER INFORMATION: Two internal Ottawa Police sources report that Chief of Police Eric Stubbs is away until the second week in April. Sources say the decision release was timed so that Deputy Chief Steve Bell would be acting Chief. Expect to hear Bell commenting on the verdict to the legacy media. As Acting Chief during the Trucker Convoy, Steve Bell infamously said that the Ottawa Police would "follow up with financial sanctions" (ie: illegally seizing / freezing bank accounts, destroying protestors' businesses, removing their licenses)
@VGircys - Vincent Gircys
Detective Helen Grus was correct all along. Her lawyers final words during the ongoing disciplinary hearing "There is evidence that has been withheld during this hearing. This tribunal is trying to conceal evidence of Criminal Negligence". This comes following her submission of documents containing information that is now being reviewed by the prosecutor and her client the Ottawa Police Chief. Prior comments by the hearing officer indicated the name of one of the authors of content submitted was Natasha Gonek. Although the contents are not know at this time they are now being reviewed by the prosecutor and her client, the Chief of Ottawa Police Services. Chief Eric Stubbs is now likely holding documents from Gonek that reveal the concerns of Health officials across Canada in 2021. This included medical data showing alarming consequences following vaccination and email correspondence of health officials showing concerns while spouting "Safe and Effective". We are likely witnessing the greatest coverup in Canadian history by Health Agencies with Police Services running cover in Obstructing Justice. Detective Grus needed to be silenced to coverup the crime of the century. Full details coming Wednesday on DEPRIVED JUSTICE https://rumble.com/c/DeprivedJustice?e9s=src_v1_cmd

🚨Ottawa Police drag Detective Helen Grus back to court days before Christmas. Prosecution seeks to throw out 1000 pages of medical evidence showing Grus was correct. PUBLIC CAN ATTEND - Dec 18/25 930am Politics Stopped a Police Inquiry into a Cluster of Infant Deaths The Most Important Legal Case in the History of Canadian Policing Ottawa Police Detective Helen Grus, a veteran investigator in the Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Unit, was convicted of Discreditable Conduct under Ontario’s Police Services Act on March 25, 2025. Incredibly, the internal Tribunal Officer found that Detective Grus should have asked for permission before initiating an investigation into an unusual cluster of infant deaths – due to the “political and societal ramifications” of her inquiries, and because she was investigating “public officials”. The written decision eliminates the right and duty of Canadian police officers to conduct investigations without political interference – or to investigate public officials or politicians without prior permission from above. If allowed to stand, the Grus decision will undermine public confidence in the independence of police investigations, and cause serving police officers to look the other way when they suspect wrongdoing by ‘public officials’ or see possible crimes that have ‘political ramifications.’ The Full Story https://grusjusticeproject.org/grus-case/

Remember when an Ottawa police detective investigated infant deaths and their connection to the Covid vaccine? Detective Helen Grus. She was suspended and put through hell by her employer and dropped by her union. Check out the story... LOST FREEDOM FILES # 3021 https://t.co/HepAL8Xe6l

Hey @OttawaPolice . Your best Detective Helen Grus warned you. You shut down your officers from asking any further questions and charged Grus. The real "Discreditable Conduct" came from police leadership as infants were dying. http://GrusJusticeProject.org Documentary June 2026
