  • He was having a stroke for hours, but ER doctors missed it | Behind the Investigation
    Jun 30 2025

    Jack and Janice Buckelew have turned their garage into an inventory of life-saving medical supplies for their son.

    In October 2015, their son Jonathan became dizzy and disoriented during a chiropractic visit. He was eventually rushed by EMS to North Fulton Hospital Emergency Room.

    According to a Fulton County state court jury verdict, two doctors failed to properly diagnose Jonathan was having a stroke, one that went untreated for hours.

    As a result, Jonathan, now 34, has lived in a chair, immobile, for a decade. He has Locked-in Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder where a person is conscious and aware but unable to move or speak due to complete paralysis of nearly all voluntary muscles, except the eyes.

    Jun 17 2025

    India Pullen moved into The View senior apartments in Stone Mountain, Georgia, 10 years ago. She loves her apartment and is an expert at keeping her water bill low, between $30 and $40 a month. Pullen rarely cooks, uses bottled water, and says she’s only run her dishwasher once since moving in.

    But in recent months, Pullen’s water bill shot up without explanation: $231 one month, and then two months later, $580, more than 16 times her average bill.

    Pullen said there are no leaks in her unit, and Atlanta News First Investigates confirmed her water meter showed no activity when all water sources were turned off.
