The Dearborn County Special Crimes Unit illegally obtains health information during investigations

The following is an amendment to my public records request. Apparently, Dearborn Prosecutor Aaron Negangard failed to get my written consent or a court order before he sent Detective Mike Kreinhop to gather confidential information from Dr. Edward J. Connor during the course of investigating my writings. No civil right is immune from being violated when Dearborn County Prosecutor Aaron Negangard is involved.

Re: Amendment to July 19, 2010 records request

Pursuant to the State and Federal laws governing access to medical records, I would like to inspect and/or copy any of my medical information that was legally and/or illegally gathered by the Dearborn County Special Crimes Unit/Dearborn County Law Enforcement:

On November 2, 2009 in Norwood, Ohio, Dearborn County Special Crimes Unit Detective Mike Kreinhop informed my mother and me that he interviewed Dr. Edward J. Connor Psy D during the course of his investigation of my writings. Dr. Edward J. Connor is a psychologist located in Erlanger, Kentucky who evaluated me for my divorce hearings. As my records (writings, testing, analysis, session notes, correspondence, etc…) with Dr. Connor and his office are considered confidential medical records and are protected under federal law, it is illegal for Dr. Connor to release any information to Dearborn County Law Enforcement Officials without my written consent or a court order. Under Indiana law, it would have been illegal for Detective Mike Kreinhop and or any other law enforcement official to obtain my confidential medical information without my consent or a hearing under IC 16-39-3-3. Any of my medical information/records (written or verbal) obtained by Dearborn County Law Enforcement from Dr. Connor’s office were gathered illegally and are not admissible evidence in seeking indictments and/or in court hearings.

Please provide me with a copy of any subpoenas, summons, court orders, etc… that were served on Dr. Edward J. Connor that compelled Dr. Connor to talk about and/or release my confidential medical information. Please provide me with any/all information gathered from Dr. Connor and/or his office pertaining to me as it is my medical record and I am entitled to the medical information under federal, state, and/or HIPAA laws. As I did not give written authorization to permit Dr. Connor to release my medical information to Dearborn County Law Enforcement Officials, if Dr. Connor released my medical information without an order from a judge, I would expect Dearborn County Law Enforcement to contact the appropriate agencies to report Dr. Connor’s actions. As Dr. Connor became licensed to practice psychology by the state of Indiana on July 8, 2008, Dr. Connor would be in violation of Indiana Law if he released any of my information that he gathered during the course of interviews, testing, correspondence, etc… to Detective Kreinhop. If Dr. Connor released my medical information without my consent and without a court order, please provide me with any and all information that was illegally gathered from Dr. Connor and/or his office as I have a right to preserve and protect my medical records.

Please let me know when the information regarding my confidential medical records will be made available for inspection and copying. If you have any questions regarding the above records request or evidence that Dr. Connor conspired to assist Dearborn County Law Enforcement in illegally obtaining my confidential medical information, please do not hesitate to contact me. For more information regarding Dr. Connor’s[1] history of unethical and illegal conduct, please visit www.danhelpskids.com.

Very truly yours,

[1] Dr. Edward J Connor Psy D is currently serving as a Court appointed expert in the murder trial of Andrew Conley. Aaron Negangard is seeking life without parole for Conley because the death penalty was not an option. The fact that Prosecutor Negangard is aware that Dr. Connor conspired to assist Dearborn County Law Enforcement in illegally obtaining my confidential medical records has the ability to jeopardize the State’s case against Andrew Conley and any other criminal trial involving Dr. Edward J. Connor.
