Landmark Law in TN for Psychotropic Drug Testing for Mass Shooters
April 30, 2025
Nashville, TN – April 30, 2025 – In a decisive move to advance public safety and accountability, Tennessee has enacted HB 1349/SB 1146, a landmark law mandating toxicology testing for psychotropic drugs in deceased mass shooters. This legislation, championed by AbleChild -a national nonprofit advocating for informed consent in mental health and co-drafted with Amy Miller, former director of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Reform Pharma initiative, positions Tennessee at the forefront of a national reckoning at the intersection of mental health, pharmaceutical practices and mass violence. Key Highlights:
Another school shooting another bogus psychiatric diagnosis. Luckily, it didn’t take years to find out that the Florida State University (FSU) shooter had been diagnosed with a mental disorder and “medicated.” But now that that information is out there, one cannot help but wonder when the shooter’s descent into deadly violence began. Given the history of these school shooters, it isn’t going out on a limb to suggest that he’d been diagnosed and drugged for some time.
Twenty-year old Phoenix Ikner, the stepson of a Deputy, killed two and wounded six others at the FSU Tallahassee campus. News accounts of the shooter explain that he had been suffering from “emotional dysregulation” and had “come off his prescription medication.” What medication? Once again, the reporters covering these shootings fail to ask the follow up question…what medication was the shooter prescribed that he was not taking?
How hard can this be? There are numerous examples of mass shooters who were “treated” for some alleged mental disorder and the psychiatric drugging information is, at some point, made available by family or legal representation. Why not ask the question? How can someone reporting that the shooter stopped taking the prescribed medication and not be curious about the reported “treatment?” It is completely unfathomable or simply incompetent.
In a revelation that should shock every American, Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) —a global consulting giant with deep operational roots in China—has emerged as a central force in the rollout of the 2022 Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA). Alvarez & Marsal’s direct presence in China is no secret. With offices in Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Shenzhen, and a client roster dominated by Chinese corporations and state-linked enterprises, A&M’s business interests are deeply intertwined with the world’s largest authoritarian regime. Its own reports reveal that more than half of its North Asia portfolio now comes from Chinese firms, and its rapid expansion in the region includes major investments in digital operations, supply chain management, and cross-border trade.
This sweeping, multi-billion-dollar mental health bill, passed with little public debate and buried in hundreds of pages of legislative text, has quietly transformed the nation’s mental health landscape and gun ownership policies—without the informed consent of U.S. citizens. The Bipartisan Safer Communities Act was passed in June 2022 in response to a series of high-profile mass shootings, such as those in Uvalde, Texas, and Buffalo, New York, but it is important to note that the legislation was not directly shaped by public testimony; instead, it was negotiated rapidly among lawmakers without formal opportunities for the public to provide input or testify before Congress, highlighting that the process was driven by political negotiation rather than broad public participation or support.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is in the news in a big way. With the new Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, Robert Kennedy, Jr., placing great weight on science to support federal government health mandates and regulations, ADHD should be the poster child of zero science and first in need of review.
Of interest is that in the last two weeks, both the New York Times Magazine and the DailyMail.com ran lengthy articles addressing Secretary Kennedy’s efforts to review the risks associated with psychiatric medications like antidepressants, antipsychotics, benzodiazepines and methylphenidate. In both of those articles, the Scientologists were essentially receiving kudos for being the first to question the drugging of America’s children for the alleged ADHD.
Richard Rothman, MD, Vice President and Chief Medical Officer at Cleveland Clinic Indian River Hospital and Chief Medical Operations Officer for the Cleveland Clinic Florida Market, made a public commitment during a well-attended community forum in Indian River County, Vero Beach, Florida, to implement MEDWATCH posters throughout the hospital. This move represents a monumental leap for human rights a significant breakthrough in the fight for informed consent and drug safety, witnessed by local residents.
The forum provided a platform for AbleChild, a nonprofit dedicated to informed consent in mental health, to directly address Dr. Rothman. AbleChild highlighted the hospital’s lack of public drug safety awareness, despite the routine use of pharmaceuticals and medical devices, and called for a clear access point for patients to report adverse events directly to the FDA through MEDWATCH.
The tragic irony in Leon County, Florida, is impossible to ignore. The Leon County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) received nearly $1.5 million under the $100 million Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA)—funding meant to reduce gun violence and invest in more mental health. Yet, despite all the money, resources, and new programs, another mass shooting has occurred. This time, the alleged shooter, Elijah Ikner, was not just any community member—he was a participant in the very programs funded by the grant, a member of the LCSO Youth Advisory Council, and someone who had completed multiple sheriff’s office training programs. However, we still await the mental health “treatment” evidence of this case that likely will never be released. It has been reported he waslabeled and drugged.
The BSCA was soldto the American public as a historic step forward, pouring hundreds of millions into background checks, mental health services, and community violence interventions. The law’s supporters point to enhanced background checks, new gun trafficking statutes, and a surge in funding for mental health and school safety. But the facts on the ground in Leon County expose a glaring weakness: the system failed to prevent a young man, intimately involved with law enforcement’s youth initiatives, from turning into a killer.
Within a few weeks of Donald Trump’s inauguration, the President signed an Executive Order establishing the Make America Healthy Again Commission (MAHA), which, among other things, will be “assessing the prevalence of and threat posed by the prescription of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, stimulants and weight-loss drugs.” In other words, officialdom finally is looking at the out-of-control unscientific chemical experimentation used to address unwanted behaviors.
Alert the media! Get Megyn Kelly on the phone! Finally, a governmental body will be looking into the serious risks associated with prescription mind-altering drugs. It’s decades in the making. But, as they say, “better late than never.” It was no surprise then that within a month of that announcement the mental health industry was none too pleased and released a “joint statement” about the wonders of its mind-altering chemical elixirs.
Tennessee Passes Landmark HB 1349/SB 1146 Targeting the Behavioral Health & Big Pharma Industries’ Role in Mass Violence—AbleChild Leads National Charge for Accountability
Nashville, TN — In a historic move to address systemic failures in mental health care and public safety, Tennessee has enacted HB 1349/SB 1146, a groundbreaking law requiring autopsies of suspected mass shooters to include toxicology screenings for psychotropic drugs. The legislation, co-drafted by AbleChild—the nation’s leading nonprofit advocating for informed consent and the right to refuse psychiatric products and services—and Amy Miller, former director of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Reform Pharma initiative, marks a seismic shift in how States confront mass violence.
CALL TO ACTION, CALL YOUR CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVE – KILL BILL HR 2085
Congressman Mike Kelly—the lawmaker blocking access to critical documents about the Butler assassination attempt—must not be allowed to advance a bill that ignores glaring conflicts of interest in behavioral health linked to the Butler, PA assassination attempt of President Trump. KILL THE BILL: HR 2085
Key Connections Being Hidden:
Crooks’ Parents & Behavioral Health Influence: Investigative documents withheld by Kelly’s office may reveal ties between Thomas Crooks’ parents (behavioral health “experts”) and entities like Genesis HealthCare, which employed Crooks at its Bethel Park facility.
Genesis HealthCare’s Reach: A major behavioral health and nursing home provider, Genesis has subsidiaries spanning 19 states and investors linked to behavioral health tech firms.
Just believe us. Nobody but the shooter is responsible. Informed consent means nothing in Tennessee and the Nashville Metropolitan Police Department (NMPD) takes its orders from the parents of the shooter. That is what the public is left with from the final report on the March 27, 2023, Covenant Presbyterian Church and School shooting. Frankly, the two years in the making NMPD report appears to be a pathetic and insulting attempt to cover up the true reason behind the deadly attack.After reading the 48-page report on Audrey Hale’s murderous assault on the school it is impossible to believe that the NMPD was unable to obtain mental health evidence because “Hale’s parents no longer had confidence in the ability of the NMPD to safeguard this information.” Apparently, Hale’s parents only gave up the mental health records to the NMDP on the strict condition that the NMDP keep the records confidential and never make them public. Really? Six innocent people are dead, and the parents of the killer are dictating to law enforcement what evidence will and will not be made available? How does that work? Seriously. When did the parents of killers become the arbiters of evidence?
