Protesters showed up outside a Michigan courtroom Wednesday as a mom was jailed for refusing to obey court orders mandating she vaccinate her nine-year-old son. Detroit resident Rebecca Bredow was sentenced to a week in jail for disobeying an Oakland County circuit court judge’s decree to get her son up-to-date on vaccinations.
Judge Karen McDonald wrote that Bredow had signed an agreement to immunize her son in November 2016, and that no appeal of the order, which stemmed from a custody battle, was ever received. Bredow indicated last week she had no plans to follow the judge’s orders, and insisted she’d sooner go to jail than vaccinate her son.
“I would rather sit behind bars standing up for what I believe in, than giving in to something I strongly don’t believe in,” Bredow told WXYZ a week ago.
Bredow says she originally agreed with her ex-husband to space out vaccines, but grew more concerned after researching and learning multiple shots would be administered at once.
“It wasn’t until they started grouping them together that I backed off of doing vaccines,” Bredow said.
“These are combo shots that could be up to 40 vaccines at once,” Bredow told CBS Detroit. “So, I mean that’s pretty serious. That’s a lot of vaccines to inject into your child at once.”
Bredow said she was never informed of her ex’s desire to vaccinate their son, and that the court decided upon the order without her input.
“I never was aware that he wanted vaccination, so he brought it to the judge’s attention that the child hasn’t been brought up to vaccination and she just ruled on it, vaccinate the child,” Bredow explained. “They never gave me the opportunity to have a hearing on the vaccination part of it, they just ruled on it without me being there… without ever having heard my side of the story or why I haven’t vaccinated.”
The mother of two believes the judge’s own “pro-vaccine” stance also played a part in the decision.
“Right now, from my point of view, I feel that it’s the judge’s personal belief. She’s pro-vaccine, which is fine, we have that choice,” Bredow told CBS last week. “But I am fully compliant with all of the state laws, the vaccine waivers. I’ve educated myself on vaccines.”
Ultimately Bredow says the judge has revoked her rights as a parent to do what she believes is right for her own children.
“Whether it be that I space them out or delay them or choose not to do them at all, it’s the fact that the court’s telling me that I have to do this,” she said. “They’re taking my rights as a mother, as a parent, to make these informed choices away from me — and I am being told I have to do something that they believe is right.”
A protester outside the courthouse told CBS she was proud of Bredow for standing up for what she believed in.
“I don’t think that going to jail is never good, but I think it’s important that people stand for what they believe,” the demonstrator said. “I don’t think she could live with herself; I know I couldn’t live with myself if I was forced to make a decision that goes against everything I believe in.”

Public health officials state that vaccines are safe and effective, but the truth is far more complicated. Vaccination is a serious medical intervention that always carries the potential to injure and cause death as well as to prevent disease. Coercive vaccination policies deprive people of free and informed consent—the hallmark of ethical medicine. Americans are increasingly concerned about vaccine safety and the right to make individual, informed choices together with their healthcare practitioners. Vaccine Epidemic focuses on the searing debate surrounding individual and parental vaccination choice in the United States.
Habakus, Holland, and Rosenberg edit and introduce a diverse array of interrelated topics concerning the explosive vaccine controversy, including the ethics of vaccination mandates, corrupting conflicts of interest in the national vaccine program, and personal narratives of parents, children, and soldiers who have suffered vaccine injury.
Newly updated with additional chapters focusing on institutional scientific misconduct, mandates for healthcare workers, concerns about HPV vaccine development, and the story behind the Supreme Court’s recent vaccine decision, Vaccine Epidemic remains the essential handbook for the vaccination choice movement and required reading for all people contemplating vaccination for themselves and their children.
Canadian physician Dr. Andrew Moulden provided clear scientific evidence to prove that every dose of vaccine given to a child or an adult produces harm. The truth that he uncovered was rejected by the conventional medical system and the pharmaceutical industry. Nevertheless, his warning and his message to America remains as a solid legacy of the man who stood up against big pharma and their program to vaccinate every person on the Earth.
Dr. Moulden died unexpectedly in November of 2013 at age 49.
Because of the strong opposition from big pharma concerning Dr. Moulden’s research, we became concerned that the name of this brilliant researcher and his life’s work had nearly been deleted from the internet. His reputation was being disparaged, and his message of warning and hope was being distorted and buried without a tombstone.
