To whom it may concern:

The American Diabetes Association (ADA), obviously has reviewed the info and documentation at MurderbyDiabetes.org by Diabetics/Disabled Anonymous (DDA). The ADA, in its letter dated January 28, 2002, apparently confirms support for Dr. Corbett’s conduct, in relation to terminating, insulin dependent, Jane Duchene’s, insulin and her life, in 1986. The purpose of the ADA contact with DDA, appears to be one in which it: (1) acts as a legal proxy for Dr. Corbett, and (2) demonstrates desire to censor the facts, medical documentation, and horrifying conduct of Dr. Victor Corbett, who is a member physician of the ADA.

Dr. Corbett has and is not engaging in civil litigation, and there is no known authority for the American Diabetes Association to act as a legal proxy for Dr. Corbett. If the ADA represents Dr. Corbett, possibly it has medical information that demonstrates that, in 1986, insulin could be withdrawn from an insulin dependent diabetic without killing that diabetic? Such info would be enlightening.

The purpose of MurderbyDiabetes.org is a moral one. Jane Duchene’s fate is made public so that other insulin dependent diabetics can be aware of the potential for harm in circumstances wherein they are aged, vulnerable, and helpless. This knowledge can help others take precautions, before similar circumstances occur, to prevent tragedies like the murder of Jane Duchene, and other similar cases of abuse of the disabled and seniors, posted at MurderbyDiabetes.org. Diabetics, from happening. The disabled and seniors have a right to know of dangers within medical and legal systems that are a potential threat to them.

MurderbyDiabetes.org is still under construction. More documentation regarding protective actions that were taken, with respect to Dr. Corbett’s misconduct, is in the process of being posted online. Most of the documentation is a matter of public record. It will include, e.g.: info regarding County Attorney Backstrom and Dr. John Plunkett, who conducted the autopsy on an embalmed, Jane Duchene. These officials avoided civil liability for covering up a murder by a legal technicality, alleging the issue should have been raised earlier proceedings. Civil litigation does not preclude criminal prosecution of Corbett, in that there is no statute of limitations for murder in the state of Minnesota. Legal retribution for wrongs, is not, the primary ambition of the DDA site.

Diabetics/Disabled Anonymous has made no effort to pass itself off as the ADA, or to steal funds from the ADA, contrary to the apparent accusations in the ADA letter of the 28th instant. Stated ADA concerns appear to be an over-reaction, and without basis regarding the scenario purported that: the public could be confused, that MurderbyDiabetes.org is or was a ADA site or affiliated to the ADA. DDA has not and does not receive donations intended for the ADA and is supported by members and spiritual fund raisers. As DDA is small, DDA has never had and doesn’t now have, or need, significant amounts of funding. Most of the members of DDA, have endured abuses which have left them financially and otherwise devastated. Financial enhancement may be a necessary component for large organizations, including the ADA, but this is not so for DDA.

In response to your demand that the ADA logo link be removed from MurderbyDiabetes.org, this is not a problem, at all. It has been replaced with a text link which is easier to read, and equally attractive esthetically. The small ADA logo was used by DDA only to make access to medical information at the ADA site easy, in the event basic info about insulin dependent diabetes was unknown. Regrets are offered, gratuitously, for any ADA travail in respect to this matter overall. Disclaimers were present before 1/28/03.
