While his mother probably can't publicly release his medical records intact, she certainly can reveal important facts and has done so.

Bringing over this Q & A from the verified lawyer thread. Below is AZlawyer's response (post #102 in the thread).

2. Was Dina required to have Jonah's permission before posting and releasing Max's EMS record on her maxshacknai.com website? (I am very doubtful that she even had a conversation with him about it. It appears they only communicate thru lawyers at this point, if at all.)
3. Was Dina required to have Jonah's permission to request and provide Max's medical records to her experts Bove and Melinek?
AZlawyer responds:
1 - 3. Unless there is some court order to the contrary, Dina should be able to obtain and release Max's medical records without Jonah's permission.
I interpret that to mean Dina is free to post or release publicly, or provide to to whomever she chooses, any portion of, or the entire record.
She continues to choose to make wild accusations, but will not support her statements using evidence available in the medical record. It would be a very simple thing to
release the sections that discuss what she has alleged:
1. That
doctors and other medical staff believed Max was suffocated first, and then assaulted and "torpedoed" over the balcony railing, and
2. That
doctors and other medical staff believed Rebecca was responsible for this, along with her minor sister.
3. Dr. Peterson's comments about Max and his injuries-- release all comments in their entirety, including all comments about the decision making process leading up to the request for CPS investigation.
4. Comments in the record from any doctors or staff related to child abuse investigation.
5. Comments about the mechanism of injury, extent of injuries, and prognosis, beginning with Coronado Sharp ER, and all of Rady documentation related to Max's injuries, testing, and prognosis.
6. Any nurses notes or other documents that confirm Dina's claims to be at the bedside during the night of Becky's death. LE has confirmed that Dina is not seen on any security footage in the building, in the ICU, or entering/ exiting the building. Only her phone has been alibi'd to be "in the vicinity". It should be a very, very simple thing to demonstrate that she was there from the patient care notes. Why on earth wouldn't she want to do that, given all of the speculation on her whereabouts, and the eyewitness accounts of her at Spreckles?
At this point, I cannot believe much (most) of what Dina claims. I am interested in reading what OTHER PROFESSIONALS documented that might in some way substantiate what Dina has alleged. Until and unless she provides some proof to back up her accusations, and substantiate what she has said that medical professionals told her, I cannot even begin to believe anything she alleges. If she wants people to believe her, in particular to believe Max was murdered by ANYONE, she bears the burden of providing the proof that is convincing, IMO. The record either supports Dina's claims, or it doesn't. I'm leaning toward thinking it doesn't, since it would be so very easy to show that it DOES. AND, if there is a court order preventing her from releasing any portion of the record, it would be very easy to demonstrate THAT, also.
I understand that medical record review can be confusing and challenging to people that are not health care professionals. There are many professionals who would review her son's records for free, as a service to a grieving mother who believes her son was murdered. A panel of impartial experts (not hired by Dina) could easily be assembled to sift thru the record and interpret what is in there that either supports, or does not support, her claims.
Until she provides some proof from Max's records that corroborates what she has been claiming, I cannot give any consideration to her words as true.
She has my sympathy for the tragic and untimely loss of her only child in a horrible accident, and I will consider her obsessive and vindictive comments toward a dead woman and her minor sister to be due to untreated grief and untreated serious psychological issues. IMO, she needs intensive counseling and mental health care, not the enablers she has surrounded herself with.
