In a rare decision involving an immunity claim by government officials, a Massachusetts judge has denied a college’s human resources director’s request for immunity from a lawsuit seeking monetary damages against her for denying a professor’s religious exemption request from the jab.
In denying the college official’s request, Massachusetts Superior Court Judge Edward McDonough slammed Springfield Technical Community College (STCC) Acting HR Director Vannoch Sin for what he called a “thinly masked opposition, [if] not overt hostility,” toward Associate Professor Sheryl Fullen in her opposition to the COVID vaccine on religious grounds.
