Janel Grant’s team has filed a new motion opposing Dr. Carlon Colker, who is a part of the lawsuit between Grant and Vince McMahon.
On October 15th, the new filing was submitted against Dr. Colker, a physician of the Peak Wellness Clinic and was previously on McMahon’s payroll. As part of the press release accompanying the filing that was sent to Inside The Ropes, it is alleged that McMahon gained access to Grant’s private medical records and that a physician at the clinic allegedly joined McMahon in sexually abusing Ms. Grant:
When Ms. Grant was suffering from symptoms of severe stress and trauma due to her abuse, Vince McMahon coerced her to schedule appointments at Peak Wellness. McMahon, who was in direct contact with Dr. Colker, obtained access to Ms. Grant’s private medical records and dictated her treatments. A physical therapist at Peak Wellness joined McMahon in the repeated sexual abuse of Ms. Grant, including one instance in which McMahon defecated on Ms. Grant’s head and forced her to continue engaging in a sexual act with the Peak Wellness employee.
The filing also alleges that Dr. Colker medicated Grant repeatedly with unknown substances, including via intravenous delivery. Grant was allegedly sent to the clinic more than 60 times from November 22, 2019, through April 15, 2022.
Grant’s attorney Ann Callis also provided the following statement in the press release:
“Imagine being at your most vulnerable, and the doctor you are told to see only makes you feel worse. Our filing today makes clear that Dr. Colker violated ethical and medical standards when he injected unknown substances into Janel’s body and directed her to take unlabeled pills while dismissing her basic questions about those drugs. Peak Wellness owes Janel Grant answers and the clinic’s secrecy and evasion must come to an end.”
At the start of July, Grant’s attorneys filed a bill of discovery against Dr. Colker seeking medical records and all messages between Dr. Colker and McMahon concerning Grant. Dr. Colker filed to dismiss this request on August 29th. The new filing on October 15th is a memorandum of law and seeks to deny Dr. Colker’s motion to dismiss.
Grant’s attorneys have requested the information from the following 8 categories from Colker and the Peak Wellness Clinic:
- Ms. Grant’s electronic medical records, including all associated metadata;
- Dr. Colker and Peak Wellness’ recordkeeping and billing procedures;
- Payment records relating to Ms. Grant;
- Dr. Colker and Peak Wellness’ payment arrangements with McMahon and/or WWE;
- The purpose of Ms. Grant’s prescribed treatments;
- The substance of Ms. Grant’s prescribed treatments;
- Any communication between Dr. Colker and McMahon relating to Ms. Grant; and
- Dr. Colker’s involvement in recommending Ms. Grant’s attorney for negotiation of the purported non-disclosure agreement.
Janel Grant’s Team Call For WWE To Release NDAs To Move Along Vince McMahon Lawsuit
Prior to the filing Janel Grant’s attorney Ann Callis spoke with The Associated Press about the lawsuit and other unnamed parties that could become a part of the case. In the interview, Janel Grant’s attorney called for WWE to waive NDAs in place to facilitate “the first step to rehabilitating a company that covered up decades of sexual assault and human trafficking.”
