Bethany Hughes, 16–17 Jahre alt, wurde 2002 aufgrund gerichtlicher Anordnungen in Alberta transfundiert (etwa 38 Transfusionen), nachdem das Gericht befunden hatte, sie könne keine freie Entscheidung treffen; die Behandlung blieb erfolglos, und sie starb im September 2002. Die spätere Klage ihres Vaters gegen die Wachtturm-Gesellschaft wurde abgewiesen.

“Bethany Abigail Hughes, the Calgary teenager whose fight against government-imposed blood transfusions landed her in court and divided her family, died yesterday after a seven-month battle with leukemia. She was 17.”
Diagnosed in February 2002 with acute myeloid leukaemia; 'about 38 blood transfusions but no decent prospect for recovery'; Alberta argued successfully that she was not mature enough to decide.

“freedom of religion is not absolute and may properly give way to an order...in a child's best interests”
Appeal from apprehension and treatment orders for Bethany Hughes (16, acute myeloid leukaemia) dismissed; the court found she could not make a free, informed choice owing to undue influence.
25. Mai 2009 · Alberta Court of Appeal (summary on vLex)
“dismissed the father's appeal”
Lawrence Hughes's action against the Watch Tower Society, its lawyers and doctors (misrepresentation, deceit) failed; 'there was no genuine issue to be tried' on causation; 'Bethany understood her medical situation and options'.
“In 1993 the Supreme Court of Newfoundland ruled 15-year-old Adrian Yeatts a “mature minor” and rejected Child Welfare's petition for court-ordered transfusions.”
Also: Dennis Lindberg 'died at Children's Hospital in Seattle' on 28 Nov 2007, 'had turned 14 in September'; Bethany Hughes 'after 80 chemotherapy treatments and 38 transfusions'.
