OPENING STATEMENT
âWhat is done cannot be undone, but one can prevent it happening again.â â Anne Frank.
âMy silence will not protect me.â â Audre Lorde.
âOn the first day, we will revoke Joe Bidenâs cruel policies on transgender treatments. We will protect our childrenâand stop taxpayer funding for transgender procedures and drugs.â â Donald J. Trump, October 16, 2024.
âGender ideology is a cult and itâs being used to harm children and mentally ill adults.â â Senator J.D. Vance, March 2024.
This is not a privacy case.
This is not a civil dispute.
This is a reckoningâagainst two giant corporations who chose the role of collaborators over caregivers.
The DefendantsâUnitedHealthcare of Colorado, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary, Rocky Mountain Health Maintenance Organization, Inc., doing business as Rocky Mountain Health Plansâknowingly and unlawfully disclosed the Plaintiffâs protected health information to law enforcement without a warrant, subpoena, court order, HIPAA-authorized exception, or any other formal legal request of any kind.
What did they hand over? Her gender identity. Her surgical history. Her mental health diagnoses. Her medications. Audio recordings of her distressed but lawful calls. And most chilling of allâtheir own narrative framing her not merely as dangerous, but as a potential national security threatâfirst invoking the Department of Homeland Security. And when DHS declined to act, they took a second shotâturning to the Grand Junction Police Department as a last-resort mechanism to criminalize, profile, and potentially disappear the Plaintiff under color of law.
Why? Not because she committed a crime, but because her existence is inconvenient to a regime of denial, silence, and shame.
Because she dared to say three wordsââDeny. Defend. Depose.ââa legal critique of healthcare denial, which Defendants twisted into a coded threat, drawing a false parallel to political violence. They exploited fear, fabricated meaning, and gave the police the script. They turned protected speech into surveillance. And they didnât even wait for a judge!
This wasnât a glitch. This was policy, in practice. This was HIPAA turned inside outâas a weapon.
The Defendants acted with full knowledge of what was happening in America. A presidential frontrunner calling for trans erasure. Federal allies demanding investigations into trans care. A climate of fear, hate, and political scapegoating. And when they had the choice to resistâthey complied. They didnât just obey. They helped. They handed her to the state because it was easier to disappear her than to defend her.
The First Amendment doesnât require politeness. It protects protest.
The Fourth doesnât ask whether youâre inconvenient. It prohibits warrantless search and seizureâespecially by proxy.
And the Fourteenth? It promises equal protection, not selective persecution based on gender, diagnosis, or defiance.
The Defendants violated all of themânot with handcuffs, but with metadata. Not with a knock at the door, but with an email to the police.
This wasnât a mistake. It was a message. A message to every other trans person: Donât raise your voice, or weâll make you disappear, too.
Defendants didnât just break the law. They became the law. Judge, jury, and courierâdelivering personal truth into the hands of armed state power.
Surveillance becomes isolation.
Isolation becomes disappearance.
Disappearance becomes death.
Gulags began with clerks.
Gas chambers began with intake forms.
History shows us that genocide does not begin with violence
âit begins with systems. It begins with paperwork.
And genocide alwaysâalwaysâbegins with bureaucrats doing their job.
âHow wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.â â Anne Frank
This complaint is that moment.
This is not just legal. This is moral.
This is a declarationâthat trans people will not be flagged.
Will not be profiled. Will not be erased.
That our medical records will not be twisted into indictments.
That when the next history is written, it will remember not just what was doneâbut who refused to be silent.
The Plaintiff survived. She speaks. And she is not alone.
XIII. Closing Statement
There is no justice in waiting 35 days to turn a transgender patientâs plea for medication into a criminal profile.
There is no emergency in dredging up call recordings and mischaracterizing political frustration as violence.
There is no âgood faithâ in crafting a narrative to police that begins, not with fearâbut with justification.
Defendants will claim they acted to protect safety. But their own employee admitted otherwise. When first contacted by police, the UnitedHealthcare representative hesitatedâstating plainly, âIâm not supposed to do thisâŚâ before turning over private audio files, internal metadata, gender identity, surgical history, medication, and psychiatric information. That is not legal confidence. That is admission of a breachâa confession made in real time, before she hit send.
And she did hit sendâthirty-five days after the fact.
Not on Day One.
Not on Day Two.
Not even on Day Ten.
There was no 911 call. No escalation to crisis services. No clinician referral.
Just silenceâuntil it became strategic.
After the calls had stopped. After the medication had been filled. After the perceived âthreatâ had evaporatedâif it had ever existed at allâthey made their move.
Not out of fear.
Out of control.
They had already alerted the Department of Homeland Securityâwho took no action. DHS did not issue a warning. Did not call back. Did not escalate. Because there was no threat.
But Defendants werenât satisfied with that outcome.
So they tried again. They made a second attempt to erase meâthis time by reaching out to the Grand Junction Police Department, re-framing the same audio with an even more sensationalized narrative, hoping this time someone would act.
Letâs be clear: the Defendants sat on this for 35 days!!!
35 DAYS!!!, YES, you heard that right.
Their bureaucrats passed it back and forth behind closed doors. They debated liability. They knew HIPAA prevented this. They knew there was no threat.
And stillâthey chose to do it!
They weighed liability versus erasure.
They weighed silencing me versus this lawsuit never being filed.
And they bet their money on that!
They packaged five recorded calls. They printed my name, date of birth, phone number, surgical history, medication, and gender identity. They flagged quotes stripped of context. They linked me to national violence. And they delivered that packet to law enforcement under the guise of public safetyâwhile quoting me as saying, âI kinda mean what I say.â
And Defendants now hinge their entire justification on that momentâon a vague, distressed expression, said under duress, in the middle of a desperate plea for hormone medication.
They treat that one sentence as if it nullifies my right to privacy, care, and personhood.
But that quote wasnât a threat. It wasnât a plan. It wasnât a warning.
It was a cry for help. A reaction to being denied careâagain.
And the fact that they needed 35 days, legal review, and law enforcement embellishment to weaponize it proves that even they knew it wasnât enough.
This was not a protective act.
It was a bureaucratic hit job. Letâs call it what it really was.
It punished protected speech. It criminalized transgender identity.
It stigmatized psychiatric disability.
It created a police record.
And it sent a message: that vulnerable people who resist insurance abuse can be reclassifiedânot as patients, but as threats.
And beneath that message, a deeper one:
That I would disappear.
That the stress and stigma of police contact would destabilize me.
That this document would never exist, and no complaint would ever be filed.
That I would be erased quietly, and they would never be forced to answer for what they did.
That is not care. That is not oversight. That is RETALITION!
I do not bring this lawsuit lightly. I bring it because my existenceâalready marginalized by gender, disability, and traumaâwas targeted and reframed as dangerous for the crime of asserting my rights. I bring it because if insurers can do this to me, they can do it to anyone whose life is inconvenient to defend.
This Court is not merely a forum for contracts and compliance. It is a bulwark against institutional abuse dressed up as diligence. A firewall against bureaucratic dehumanization cloaked in corporate policy.
What was disclosedâmy hormones, my trauma, my identityâwas mine alone to share. Defendants had no legal right to weaponize that data against me. And they most certainly had no moral right to do so under color of safety, 35 DAYS after the moment had passed.
Five phone calls. Thirty-five days of silence. One irrevocable breach.
The law must mean more than procedural permission to harm. It must mean protection for those who have already been harmed too many times before.
