I want to Share a letter that I written to O.P.M.C & the N.Y.C. District Attorney 's Office back in '05.

Dear Sir/madam,


I am informing you thru this communication of my concerns that certain Physicians had engaged in questionable medical practices while attending to the care of my siblings.


Ever since Dr. Margaret M. Lawrence of Harlem Hospital deceived my mother into signing my sibling Ward Johnson into Childville back in 1970, my family’s life has been obliterated. During Ward’s stay at Childville, Dr. Jon Block gave my sibling a drug called Thorazine to help him sleep at night (the excuse that they told my mother).


Thorazine was one of the drugs that were used in the Jonestown massacre brainwashing experiments in 1978 and has very harmful side affects. In fact Thorazine has been called a chemical lobotomy because of the similar effects it creates. This dangerous neuroleptic medication is toxic to most brain functions, disrupting nearly all of them; it has a well-documented impact on the dopamine neurotransmitter system. It causes a disruption in the functioning of the frontal lobes that greatly reduces a subject awareness of temperament and surroundings.


In the early part of 1973 my mother informed Childville that she was going to cancel Ward’s enrollment into their “boarding school”, because she saw that there was nothing wrong with Ward. It was then she learnt that she had been deluded and signed him into foster care. That is when Ward’s personality started to change dramatically. On one weekend visit his skin was off his face, hands and arms; she was informed that he had an allergic reaction to something that he ate. And on other occasions, he would just cry, for no reason at all. My mother knew she had to get him out of there, but was denied the right to do so by the staff of Childville.


Daniel A. Pollack the president of Childville had corroborated to my mother what the rest of his staff had told her in saying that she had no more rights to her son and cannot remove him. His staff consisted of Dr. Block, Dr. O’Hagen, Dr. kemker and Dr. Odegan. The social workers were Mr. Proman, Ms. Herring, Ms. Pollack, Ms. Solomon (administrative supervisor) and Richard Altman the director. Nobody would help my mother with her efforts in getting her son out of Childville. It was during that time we experience the frequent vandalism that remain a problem with my mother till today, because of the refusal of the police department to investigate that problem.


On April 11th, 1974 my mother endured a false arrest because she did not return Ward back to Childville. She tried to rescue him from the hands of the Doctors that had given my sibling drugs that had altered his personality; my siblings and I were place into foster care where they had injected us all with medication as a result of her arrest. I was 8 years old at the time, and I can still remember that shot because we couldn’t raise our arms afterward for several days. An order of protection was issue against my mother that prevented her from seeing Ward for 10 months after that. A counselor by the name of Harold Beasley pushed my mother down the stairs when she had return to Childville to see her son.

When her visitation rights were restored in February of ‘75, she took Ward again and warned Childville that they would have to kill her this time if they try to take Ward back. Things never been the same after that, Ward was force to enter into a C.O.H program while attending middle school I. S 158 when his record caught up with him in ‘76, and place under the care of Dr. Lehman. Ward’s condition deteriorated when he entered into that program. He came from school one day saying, “get away from me”, jumping up and down while fighting the air.


Ward started to do strange things while he attended those C.O.H programs thru the board of education. It is in our belief that Ward was medicated and conditioned when he was enrolled into that program. In 1978 Ward disrobe himself at school and the Doctors were able to convince my mother that Ward needed to be medicated in order to get better. My mother hesitantly agreed because she was concern about that incident. She queried Ward as to why he would do such of thing and he did not know why.

Upon further questioning he recalled an occurrence when Mr. Sunshine attempted to hypnotize him while attending I.S.158 and he told my mother how these men in suits would come to his school and take him to an empty room and ask him all types of questions concerning math and calendar calculating.


Ward had incredible savant abilities and it was quite possible he was a prodigious savant. There was nothing wrong with Ward when my mother enrolled him into that “boarding school” to help children interact with other kids sociably at the recommendation of Dr. Lawrence. The problems Ward developed after he was admitted to Childville were man made. Just look at the medications that they had administered to him over the last 30 years.


The Doctors showed gross negligence and incompetence when they administered and prescribe the numerous anti-psychotics, anti-manic, anti-convulsants and anti-depressants medication to my sibling. It is well documented that long-term use of anti-psychotics (neuroleptics) will cause a condition known as Tardive Dyskinesia, and it also reported that treatment of behavioral problems with neuroleptics might cause additional social and physiological problems; therefore, they should be carefully considered before being utilized.


It seems to me; if a patient exhibits some type of mental disorder, a Doctor would do his best to try to preserve the strengths and intelligence of his patient, not destroy it. Doctor’s are warned that patient’s who require chronic treatment, the smallest dose and the shortest duration of treatment producing a satisfactory clinical response should be sought. One can rationalize, was the doctor’s prescribing the medications seeking the therapeutic effects or was they administered to produce the side effects?

Each psychiatric drug, which was originally heralded as the new “safe” wonder drug, was found to have severe harmful side effects, including addiction, withdrawal symptoms, among others. My sibling has been heavily medicated by various Doctor’s for over 30 years now, and has been giving Thorazine, Haldol, Prolixin, Risperdal, Congentin, Zoloft, Navane, Prozac, Lithium, Depakote, Tegretol and Seroquel that we know of. The Doctor’s often mix his medication and prescribed him multiple pills 2 times per day. The side effects of those drugs had a devastating effect on my sibling, and impaired his savant abilities. Long-term use of the injurious medications that were imprudently administered to my sibling, has restricted his intelligence and personality, and is responsible for his current diagnose presently.


The brain disabling principle applies to all of the most potent psychiatric medications - anti-psychotics, anti-depressants, anti-manic and mood stabilizing medications. The foremost psychiatric treatments exert their primary or intended effect by disabling normal brain function. It is in my belief that when these Doctors Lobotomize my sibling intelligence, it was not only the result of a side effect, but rather, the sought after clinical effect. Conversely, none of the foremost psychiatric medications corrects or improve existing brain dysfunction, such as any reputed biochemical imbalance. If my sibling happens to suffer from brain dysfunction, then the medication that was administered to him would exacerbate his condition.


Neuroscientists are now familiar with chemicals, which effect personality traits. If one wants to create raving paranoia, simply provide the brain with too much dopamine in the emotional center of the brain. If you reduce serotonin in an individual, that person will be unable to connect disagreeable consequences with what provoked them. In other words, they can’t protect themselves from danger. It is in my belief that the reason my sibling was administered heavy medication was to take away his humanity and make him more manageable for their sadistic experiments.


Currently today the Doctor’s have my sibling under some type of Mind Control, it appears that they programmed him to leave his home (usually at night when everyone is asleep) and check himself into a hospital to examine his genital area. Then the Doctor’s claims that my sibling displays sexual overtone and should be kept for observation. It is strange to me that every time my sibling exhibits sexual overtone it is always at the hospitals in the presence of the Doctor’s. Can it be that they are trying to condition him to be that way?

Ward has been known to numerous hospitals throughout the City of New York, all had expressed an out of the ordinary interest in him. On several occasions the Doctor’s would refuse to release Ward back into my mother’s custody and often suggested that she should give him up, because it would serve in his best interest. One Doctor noted in his report dated 1/28/83 after all medication was cleared out of his body “Ward is much more calm and responsive in an appropriate way than on admission. He reports fewer hallucinations, both auditory and visual, and has made no comments on wanting to kiss staff members (as earlier) in the last several days. Overall continues to improve off his medication and behaving well under direct supervision.”


That report came from Montefiore Medical Center when my sibling was admitted for an abnormal EEG on 1/21/83. My mother had brought him there because he has been increasingly drowsy, poorly oriented and bumping into walls. In one week’s time my brother was a completely different person when the heavy doses of Haldol were eliminated from his body. So what do the Doctor’s do now that they witness positive results in my sibling behavior off medications?


Montefoire medical center release my sibling free of all meds into my mother’s care, and Ward was a much more responsive individual. My mother sought help from Dr. Jimenez (of the Council Center for Problem of Living) to enroll him into a special program on 2/16/83. Dr. Jimenez insisted that Ward résumé his previous Haldol regiment. He was not interested in the Doctor’s report from MMC, and suggested that she take him back there for a program if she disagreed with his assessment. Shortly after that my sibling was heavily medicated against my mother’s wishes at Mt. Sinai Hospital.
It seems like every Doctor that my mother met after that, emphasized that my sibling needed to be medicated. They did to my sibling what they please; because their actions remain uncheck, despite the hundreds of complaints that my mother wrote against them to various politicians and investigative agencies. They had a feeling of invincibility and felt that they were above the law.


Even when my mother applied for Legal Guardianship for my sibling Ward in November of ‘85 when Metropolitan Hospital informed my mother that she no longer have any rights to my sibling and refused her the right to see her son because he is considered a adult now. Those orders came from Dr. Luigi Marcuzzo; they held him against her wishes until 4/1/86. The Legal Guardianship process was deliberately impeded until 1992. By various Doctor’s and the refusal of services from Legal Aid. It took my mother 7 years to be granted Legal Guardianship and have power of attorney over my sibling’s affairs.


My sibling entire health records needs to be subpoena and reviewed in order to identify the numerous atrocities, human and civil rights violations that have been committed against him and my mother.


This tragedy spread to my other two siblings (Trevis and Sean Johnson) they were unlawfully given hazardous medications at a young age in life through the forced C.O.H programs of the board of education, Hospitals, Children Services Agencies and even Prison. They both were place on unnecessary anti-psychotics without the consent of my mother that altered their personalities, and is responsible for their current diagnose of today. A review of their early health and school records would reveal that they were normal children that were robbed of their innocence by those sadistic Doctor’s that experimented on them.


The persons who is responsible for this is very cunning and evil, and has used various New York city Agencies to assist them in their iniquity. What these Doctor’s are doing is a continuation of the work that Adolph Hitler performed while he was a dictator/brainwasher in Nazi Germany.

When my mother finally realized that my brother was being overly medicated, and his condition was worsening, she verbalized her concerns to the Doctor’s at Terence Cardinal Cooke in January of 2004. The Doctor’s became agitated and insisted that Ward must stay with his prescribe medication. My mother followed her heart and removed the Depakote medication from his prescription. Ward showed amazing improvements and a desire to learn. Even some of his savant abilities had surface again. Three months later she shared the good news with the Doctor’s at TCC and they became furious that she removed the Depakote from his prescription plan.


They had reported my mother to the Department of Social Service APS Division (FOAJM.2139575) because she refuse to follow their entire medication regiment of Risperdal 4mg, Depakote 500mg, Cogentin .5mg and Zoloft 50mg two times a day. My mother stood her ground and eliminated the Depakote from his regiment because she witnessed the positive result in Ward over the last three months.


Later on that year on 12/19/04 my sibling went missing again, and did not surface until the 29th of December under a assume name at ST. Vincent’s hospital. My mother went there to retrieve her son, but the Doctor’s wanted her to except some type of in-house program that they had outlined for her because she was not compliant with their prescription regiment concerning the Depakote.


My mother immediately refused their services, and they in turn, refuse to release my sibling citing the Mental Hygiene Law. My mother fought hard for 3 weeks for the freedom of my sibling from ST. Vincent Hospital and warned them not to give my sibling any Depakote. They violated my mother wishes and administered Ward the Depakote 500mg along with Risperdal 4mg, Congentin .5mg and Zoloft 50mg twice daily. At the orders of Dr. Scott Mcaffe. I respectfully ask for a reply: What section of the Mental Hygiene Law gave ST. Vincent’s Hospital the authority to hold and medicate my sibling without my mother’s consent?


They crossly released him on 1/18/05 after much fighting from my mother. Social Worker Margaret Vaughn of ST. Vincent’s Hospital called the Dept. of Social Service A.P.S Division and made a fictitious claim against my mother and sibling. The case was assign to Robert Griffith an A.P.S agent. He in turn contacted A.C.S and they conspired to destroy my family once in for all with the aid of Supervising Judge Susan Knipps of Family Court. My niece was removed from my mother’s home based on a lie that was told by Angelica Reyes an A.C.S agent. The Judge had shown a personal bias and incompetents in the handling of this case. It feels like I’m sitting inside a Mississippi courtroom in the 1960’s the way this case is conducted. I invite all responsible investigative agencies to look at this Case Docket # N-01301/05 in its entirety, to appreciate the seriousness concerning this matter.


A.C.S and the Judge were more than ready to commit my niece into a DRC Facility at the beginning of that trial. We all know that kids that are referred to that kind of Facility are meant to be stabilized, by way of medication, to ready them for future placement in foster care. Robert Griffith and Elvis Liburd of the Dept. of Social Service filed a fictitious claim against my mother in the EX Parte Motion part of the Supreme Court (index # 400985/05) on 3/24-25/05.


They made clinical accusations against my mother stating that she is suffering from a mental illness and cannot care for herself or my sibling Ward. They intended to use the Kendra Law against my mother, and forcibly commit her to a mental institution to be medicated. In their feeble attempts to medicate my entire family to live up to their rumors of having a family full of psychotics, it exposes them as the ones who are truly in need for mental evaluations.


My niece is innocent, she is 14 years old and the Judge refuses to consider her desires or interests. A.C.S is constantly trying to get my niece to comply with their mental evaluations and the Judge is demanding for my mother to comply with the court’s mental health service. It is so obvious what these demented individuals are trying to achieve. They want to medicate my entire family for the sole purpose of experimentation and mind control.

There are no “safe” psychiatric drugs. Each has numerous harmful short term and largely unknown long-term effects. They can induce Akathisia, a severe restlessness that studies show can cause agitation and psychosis, TD, Lethargy, Confusion, Hallucinations, Severe Depression, Insomnia, Nightmares, Nervousness, Memory problems, Manic Reactions, Sexual Problems, Delusions, Delirium, Seizures, Nausea, Muscle tremors, Epileptic, Fever, Lowered White Blood Cell Count, Liver Damage, and heart attacks and strokes.

Psychiatric drugs obtain their result by causing brain dysfunction. The Doctor’s never once warn my mother about the dangerous side effects of my sibling’s medication. It is very important to them that he remains medicated. I want to know why? The crimes that I am reporting in this communication are that the Doctor’s deliberately medicated my family to obtain the side effects of the drug for their hideous experiments. I respectfully request that my concerns be investigated thoroughly because an innocent young girl is in imminent danger to life and health. You can save what’s left of my family, please investigate!


Respectfully, Sheldon Johnson

I have to often say NO I don't. I had a book that lie next to my bed and after shock treatmen I could not ewven remember I had kids or that I was married, I would just start to remember and ZAP!

thank you everyone who noted and espcially those who wrote, I couldn;t until today. Also thx to those that forwarded 'gold stars' I was only able to send 1 netmessage, it is usually phsycially difficult for me. I have never been forced drugged, however, they have alot of power over you and once you start taking them. I never knew what the black hole of depression was untiul I was put on them one after the other wiht adverse reaction after adverse reaction, repeated misdiagnsoes, belittlement, disempowerment, and I got suicidal on several of them and voluntarily admitted myself , was misdiagnosed again and repeated brain body damage for life, still not on my medical records and left here, the damage is progressing and worsening, for their so callled integrity. they are above the rule of law and this needs to change. I became dependant on them as I was told once I got into major drepssion from them, that the next pill would work. Well they jhust did more damage. I realize that many people want and need these medications however, they have the right to know of the damage they do, which is extensive, and alternatives to them, natural ones.

Sheldon thx for posting will read the whole ltr, today or tomorrow as able, signed petition sometime back
