The legal team of Janel Grant is keeping up their fight
against Vince McMahon, submitting a new legal filing in
Connecticut state court against Dr. Carlon Colker, a
physician paid by McMahon, and Peak Wellness, Inc., the
medical clinic owned by Dr. Colker.

The filing alleges that McMahon sent Ms. Grant to the
medical clinic and sexually abused her with one of the
clinic’s employees. The filing also alleges that Dr. Colker
repeatedly medicated Ms. Grant with unknown substances,
including intravenously. It seeks to compel Dr. Colker and
Peak Wellness to turn over Ms. Grant’s full electronic
medical and billing records as well as messages between Dr.
Colker and Vince McMahon regarding 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.


“Imagine being at your most vulnerable, and the doctor you
are told to see only makes you feel worse,” said Ann Callis,
attorney for Janel Grant. “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.”

On July 1, 2024, Ms. Grant’s attorneys filed a bill of
discovery request against Dr. Colker and Peak Wellness to
gain access to her full electronic medical and billing
records as well all messages between Dr. Colker and McMahon
regarding Ms. Grant after they repeatedly refused to comply
with Ms. Grant’s requests. In response to this proceeding,
both McMahon and Dr. Colker made separate attempts to block
Ms. Grant’s filing. McMahon’s attempt to block Ms. Grant’s
bill of discovery proceeding was denied by the United States
District Court for the District of Connecticut on August 6,
2024.

All patients have the right to receive their full medical
records under federal and state law, including HIPAA, the
Cures Act, and Connecticut General Statutes § 20-7c. Ms.
Grant has requested her full electronic medical records from
Peak Wellness on several different occasions, and each time
the clinic has failed to comply with her requests.
Specifically, in the new legal filing, Ms. Grant has
requested eight different categories of records from Peak
Wellness, including:

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 communications 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.
