Grace Schara Trial Day 7 LIVE –Battle of the Experts, Defense Makes their case (poorly)

Day 7 of the Grace Schara wrongful-death trial picks up right where last week’s fireworks left off—only now the stakes jump even higher as Ascension leadership and new defense experts take the stand in Outagamie County Circuit Court, Appleton, WI.

🔍 What’s on deck today
• Hospital CEO & Chief Medical Officer questioned about policy breaches: why no written DNR, why father was removed, and whether COVID bonus payments influenced patient-care protocols.
• Epic EMR systems analyst grilled over missing or altered vitals entries that attending physician Dr. Gavin Shokar blamed on “sync errors.” The jury wants to know if records were edited after Grace’s death.
• Defense critical-care duo argues continuous Precedex plus lorazepam “matched national COVID sedation guidance,” while plaintiffs counter with NIH charts showing the combination contraindicated in non-intubated patients.
• Plaintiff rebuttal witness (forensic nursing auditor) presents a minute-by-minute timeline showing Grace’s oxygen saturation above 95 percent until the final morphine push.
• Judge Mark McGinnis rules on Friday’s motion: federal COVID-19 incentive codes—ICU up-charges, ventilator bonuses, remdesivir add-ons—are officially admissible; expect cross-examination fireworks.
• Live juror questions (Wisconsin allows written questions) likely to probe whether a DNR ever legally existed and what “standard of care” really meant for a 19-year-old with Down syndrome.

🗝️ Why Day 7 could change everything
This is the first U.S. jury trial to test hospital liability for a death still certified as COVID-19. A ruling that Ascension’s protocol—or alleged record manipulation—killed Grace could reset informed-consent law, disability-rights enforcement, and pandemic-era immunity claims nationwide.
