Chapter 18 - DR. COLLINS’S PROTOCOL

Dr. Collins created a prenatal coercion protocol after Emily’s case.
Private interviews at every high-risk appointment.
Independent review of medical authorizations.
Immediate preservation of suspected drugging evidence.
Safety planning for family-controlled transportation.
Questions about financial and inheritance pressure.
The protocol caught another case.
A pregnant woman’s husband pressured her to sign a business transfer before delivery.
No physical assault yet.
A private interview exposed threats.
The transfer stopped.
The woman left safely.
No skillet.
No punch.
No trial.
The system worked earlier.
Dr. Collins called Emily.
“You changed policy.”
Emily answered:
“The camera changed what they could deny.”
May you like
“Your decision to call changed the camera into evidence.”
Both mattered.
