The facts, the background, the drama, the media, the fact checkers, and the lawyer who is currently imprisoned. - Author: Reproduced with permission - Tags: World Politics, Science, Law, COVID-19, Media [**Penny Marie**](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/significant-update-on-the-bill-gates?ref=goodoil.news) *The PEN is mightier than the sword... Penny Marie is an independent reporter, researcher, speaker and coach. Founder of Let Kids Be Kids.* Netherlands independent reporter [Erica Krikke](https://substack.com/@zebrainspiratie?ref=goodoil.news), has been following this fascinating case since July 2023\. It’s not a new case. It just took a while for the world to notice it and realise its significance. ### Summary of case In Leeuwarden District Court, Netherlands, seven plaintiffs have brought a case against 17 defendants (incl [Bill Gates](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill%5FGates?ref=goodoil.news), [Albert Bourla](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert%5FBourla?ref=goodoil.news), [Mark Rutte](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark%5FRutte?ref=goodoil.news) and the State of the Netherlands) claiming that they have implemented the [**Covid 19: The Great Reset Project**](https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/06/the-great-reset-this-weeks-world-vs-virus-podcast/?ref=goodoil.news). They claim that The Great Reset is a project aimed at the reorganization of societies in all United Nations (UN) member countries, as described by Klaus Schwab in his book [Covid-19: The Great Reset](https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/54498122-covid-19?ref=goodoil.news). – [Read full story](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/breaking-news-bill-gates-loses-lawsuit?ref=goodoil.news). And that they knew the Covid-19 injections would cause harm before they imposed them upon the majority of the worlds’ population. ### Latest update - [Brett Hawes](https://onwardpod.substack.com/)’ interview with Erica [Onward Podcast with Brett Hawes](https://onwardpod.substack.com/p/bill-gates-albert-bourla-get-sued?utm%5Fsource=substack&utm%5Fcampaign=post%5Fembed&utm%5Fmedium=web).

Is this similar to Reiner Fullmich’s situation? Arno’s family have set up a [GoFundMe](https://www.gofundme.com/f/inzamelingsactie-om-advocaatkosten-voor-papa-te-betalen?attribution%5Fid=sl:b6e76590-c761-48da-bb3e-b35ed1037cc5&lang=nl%5FNL&ts=1752701556&utm%5Fcampaign=fp%5Fsharesheet&utm%5Fmedium=customer&utm%5Fsource=copy%5Flink) to assist him. In June Erica discussed Arno’s situation with Italian lawyer [Alessandro Fusillo](https://www.difendersiora.it/?ref=goodoil.news)… --- ### Background to this fascinating case and the media’s response [Erica](https://zebrainspiratie.nl/category/wereld-verhalen/?ref=goodoil.news) and I published our first collaboration about this case on October 19/20 2024\. Our [Substack](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/breaking-news-bill-gates-loses-lawsuit?r=1hl7cl&ref=goodoil.news) (below) went viral, was republished worldwide including [in the UK](https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/bill-gates-loses-lawsuit-and-will-appear-in-dutch-court/?ref=goodoil.news) and [France](https://www.youtube.com/live/SabcsSqm8e4?si=BbZnrkBsL-cNj7rc&ref=goodoil.news), and the story trended on X for over three weeks. This is such an important case and the more people speaking about it **factually**, the better. This is a CIVIL case. It’s a start point. It’s ‘we the people’ holding the king pins to account. We can, and we will. For the future of humanity, it’s time to stand up. – Penny Marie [BREAKING NEWS: Bill Gates loses lawsuit and will appear in Dutch court](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/breaking-news-bill-gates-loses-lawsuit?ref=goodoil.news)[Penny Marie](https://substack.com/profile/90008949-penny-marie?ref=goodoil.news) and [Zebra Inspiratie (Erica)](https://substack.com/profile/173408232-zebra-inspiratie-erica?ref=goodoil.news) 20 October 2024[](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/breaking-news-bill-gates-loses-lawsuit?ref=goodoil.news) Shared with permission.

He can’t be, as it’s a civil case. Many outlets who picked up the story in the following days **sensationalised** it, including [Naomi Wolf and Russell Brand](https://www.instagram.com/reel/DBzqlOSsZOy/?utm%5Fsource=ig%5Fweb%5Fcopy%5Flink) (Naomi gets the story wrong four times in under a minute, [as I explain here](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/a-compelling-conversation-about-media?ref=goodoil.news)) and many others. Significantly, [RFK Junior talked about it](https://youtu.be/aQBATJjP5UU?ref=goodoil.news) while campaigning before the US election. RKF Jnr’s speech was mashed up on [Alex Jones](https://rumble.com/v5kp09x-bill-gates-to-face-covid-vax-truth-in-a-dutch-court.html?ref=goodoil.news), along with our Substack. Erica and I were contacted by [John Gregory](https://www.newsguardtech.com/about/team/john-gregory/?ref=goodoil.news) from [NewsGuard](https://www.newsguardtech.com/special-reports/2024-elections-misinformation-tracker/?ref=goodoil.news) US fact-checkers pre-election because they traced RFK Jnr’s speech back to our [Substack](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/breaking-news-bill-gates-loses-lawsuit?r=1hl7cl&ref=goodoil.news). The priority for Erica and I was that **the facts were correct** on this story, because we want to see it go to trial. ![](https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!0DnK!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd6e9ed8e-b19a-49fd-a5a7-0f295894058c_1280x720.heic) Meanwhile mainstream media didn’t cover the facts about the case of course… only publishing stories to **debunk the sensationalised stories**. [Reuters](https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/bill-gates-was-not-indicted-netherlands-2024-10-30/?ref=goodoil.news), [AFP Fact Check](https://factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com.36MK7B4?ref=goodoil.news), [Lead Stories](https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2024/10/act-check-bill-gates-was-not-indicted-in-netherlands-judge-only-ruled-on-jurisdiction-in-civil-case.html?ref=goodoil.news), and later on [PolitiFact](https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2024/dec/05/instagram-posts/bill-gates-was-not-indicted-in-the-netherlands-cla/?ref=goodoil.news). There were others, in multiple languages too, you can search them up online. Can you see what this does to the psyche of the population, who are being gaslit and maligned and are merely ‘conspiracy theorists’ via mainstream media… when we have the evidence to support our claims? This story is so significant, but mainstream media only reported on the sensationalised stories, debunking them, and in doing so, burying the real story. ### What RFK Jnr said… --- ### This media wildfire prompted us to post this follow-up… [UPDATE: The Bill Gates Court Case The World Is Talking About](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/update-the-bill-gates-court-case?ref=goodoil.news)[Penny Marie](https://substack.com/profile/90008949-penny-marie?ref=goodoil.news) and [Zebra Inspiratie (Erica)](https://substack.com/profile/173408232-zebra-inspiratie-erica?ref=goodoil.news) 25 October 2024[](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/update-the-bill-gates-court-case?ref=goodoil.news) On October 20, we published a story about a court case in the Netherlands, where plaintiffs have brought a civil case against defendants including Bill Gates. Netherlands independent reporter Erica of Zebra Inspiratie has been reporting on this case over the past months.

Key potential witness [Dr Francis Boyle](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis%5FBoyle?ref=goodoil.news) (who had been in good health) suddenly passed away, weeks after getting involved on this case. Boyle was a renowned US legal scholar and author of the [**1989 Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act**](https://www.congress.gov/bill/101st-congress/house-bill/237/text?ref=goodoil.news), which implements the Biological Weapons Convention under U.S. law. In his affidavit, Boyle stated there was **“no doubt that the mRNA COVID-19 injections are biological weapons”**. (This evidence has not been brought to this case yet).

[Read full story](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/are-covid-19-injections-public-health?ref=goodoil.news) --- Once again this story is being sensationalised, here is one example, from [Jim Ferguson](https://x.com/pennymarienz/status/1944970751096066392?ref=goodoil.news). My advice: Be mindful who you follow and be prepared to dig deeper into the emotionally charged headlines, if you want the facts. ### Children’s Health Defense (CHD) is accurately reporting on this case - The latest from CHD: [Three New Plaintiffs Ask to Join Covid Vaccine Injury Lawsuit Against Bill Gates](https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/3-new-plaintiffs-join-covid-vaccine-injury-lawsuit-against-bill-gates/?ref=goodoil.news) - CHD’s first article (which was the Defenders’ most read article of 2024): [Judge Rules Bill Gates Must Face Vaccine-Injured in Netherlands Court](https://childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/bill-gates-covid-vaccine-lawsuit-netherlands/?ref=goodoil.news). This article was originally published on the [author’s Substack](https://www.pennymarie.nz/p/significant-update-on-the-bill-gates?ref=goodoil.news).
