Exposeed! Controversial Doctor Who Sold Online Autism ' Cure' Committed Suicide On The Same Day His Treatment Was Linked To Deaths Of Five Children

 Controversial anti - vaccination  ' specialist ' Dr. James Jeff Bradstreet was administering an anauthorized and untested  ' autism cure' through
his Georgia clinic that was linked to the deaths of five children in Europe on the same day police say he committed suicide.  However, the family of the doctor insist that Bradstreet's death was not self - inflicted , and have hired a group of private detectives to investigate what really happened to him, after raising over $35,000 online.

According to Washington Post, Bradstreet had been administering thousands of patients with an experimental, expensive and highly- contentious drug called GcMAF - a protein injection - which he claimed could completely cure autism after five months of treatment.

 The drug has not undergone safety testing, is not approved by the FDA, and experts say there is no evidence to suggest it would have any effect on autism spectrum disorder.    On June 19th, the day Bradstreet authorities said was found dead in Chimney Rock, North Carolina, from a self - inflicted gunshot wound to the chest , it emerged that five children being treated with GcMAF had died in Switzerland.    





Earlier, agents from the FDA and the Georgia Drugs and Narcotics Agency had raided Bradstreet's private practice in Buford and sezied vials of GcMAF, medical records, lists of clients, and other documents.  


 They had been tipped off by officials in Britain who earlier this year closed down a GcMAF lab in Guernsey, in the Channel Islands. The lab, run by IMMUNO BIOTECH, had been producing GcMAF under the brand name First Immune.


 Bradstreet had been openly distributing First Immune among patients for at least 18 months and even filmed a promotional video for the drug inside the Immuno Biotech lab in Guernsey. The Medical and Healthcare Products Refulatory Agency ( MHRA) - the UK equivalent of the FDA - closed the lab.


 According to Washington Post report, Finding the pharmacy to be unregistered, unlicensed and manufacturing GcMAF using blood plasma that was marked  'not to be administered to humams or used in any drug prodicts'. After his own clinic was raided, Bradstreet fled town. He drove from Georgia to a hotel near lake Lure in North Carolina. Bradstreet patients had written online they were paying $90 per shot of GcMAF from the doctor, according to The Post.


  If he had been indicted, Bradstreet would have faced up to 20y years in prison, according to FORBES, which first obtained the search warrant the feds used to raid his clinic. The Post reported that Bradstreet could not check in at the hotel when he arrived because his room was not ready, so he left. 


 Hours later his body was found with a gunshot wound to the chest about three miles away in Chimney Rock. A handgun was found nearby. Police reported the death to be a suicide.
