Virginia Commonwealth University police are investigating a nurse at the VCU Health system after videos surfaced of the employee apparently encouraging viewers on social media to poison and drug the food of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, VCU Health reported Tuesday in a statement. “We are aware of a series of videos that appear to have been posted by an individual confirmed to be an employee of our health system,” the VCU Health statement says. “The content of the videos is highly inappropriate and does not reflect the integrity or values of our health system.” “VCU Police are assisting with this investigation,” VCU Health says, noting that the employee “is on administrative leave and will not be in our facilities or interacting with patients.” The VCU statement appears to refer to video of a nurse exposed Monday evening by Libs of TikTok, which identifies her as “Melinda”: “Meet Melinda, a healthcare worker at @VCUHealth. She posted a series of videos encouraging people to inject ICE agents with succinylocholine, a temporary paralysis drug, and spray poison on them. She also encourages woman to go on dates with agents and drug their food.” “Get them sick,” the woman in the video says. “Let’s get them where they eat,” she says, describing a way to drug their food.

A nurse named Malinda (not Melinda) Cook is listed as an employee on the VCU Health website and on Doximity.com, which bills itself as “the largest community of healthcare professionals in the country.” A profile picture Cook, a CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthesiology) is posted on Doximity.com.
