The edit history showing the actual edits must be restored promptly, in accord with whatever corrollaries to WP:AGF that apply, and (insofar as the Wiki purveys data related to medical records) in accord with the intent of GMP and in the spirit of Jonathan's Law. Ombudsman 23:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

I believe oversight has been requested, so there will not no reinstatement until that is resolved. Why don't you just replace with material with inline citations for the allegations and this issue will go away? Rockpocket 23:52, 16 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

It follows the format of many similar pages created by Ombudsman over the years. They are impossible to manage. JFW | T@lk 20:51, 25 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

What happened to Jonathan? edit

This article needs to either link to an article on Jonathan Carey or explain what happened to him. Argel1200 (talk) 14:53, 18 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Apparently all facts about Jonathan were wikicensored (see above). Try adding them back in, censors will strike again. His father relates how Jonathan was killed: Jonathan’s caregiver wrapped my son’s arms criss crossed across his chest hands tight around his back like in a straight jacket position for about fifteen minutes. After seeing Jonathan’s eyes fluttering, then pushed Jonathan down on a van bench seat and essentially sat upon him until Jonathan stopped moving and breathing. Jonathan’s crime--he got out of his seat belt. The protective measures to keep Jonathan in his seat belt were never used. We found out later neither were staff even trained on the simple protective equipment that we even provided to the facility months earlier. You can’t get any more negligent than that. Innappropriate restraints are not only deadly, but they are illegal. The caregiver that killed my son is now serving 5-15 years in State prison [for manslaughter]. (I wonder why Wikipedia shouldn't be able to cite facts that were verified in a court of justice, but that's for you wikipedians to sort out.) More info

Seems like an edit war occurred in the past regarding information as to the event that precipitated this legislation. Can someone involved in that conflict give information here as to why there is no information regarding this. It is salient, and the article is not encyclopedic as it stands.68.34.210.83 (talk) 22:04, 27 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
