That second one, the blog post, raised a dozen red flags for me. The gist of it is "We don't know what happened, therefore I will speculate about every hypothetical way that the Pelletiers might be bad people, and Justina herself might not know what she's talking about. Because, gosh, we just don't know. BTW my primary concern is her welfare."

So if that blog post can be dismissed as mere speculation because, well it's just a blog post, right? Then on what basis can we give Martin Gottesfeld the benefit of the doubt? As far as I can tell, the Pelletiers did not release the relevant medical records, either into the public domain or through private channels to Mr. Gottesfeld. Nor does Gottesfeld mention having a medicine-related degree, or even having observed Justina in person. It appears that he made his decision based on reading blog posts sympathetic to the family, and not based on any firsthand or otherwise privileged observations of his own.
