Night Watch: How a Conspiracy Theorist Convinced Her Daughter to Refuse Treatment

Paloma Shemirani was only 23 years old when she died of cancer. Doctors told her she had an 80% chance of survival with treatment, but she turned it down after her mom — former nurse and conspiracy theorist Kate Shemirani — convinced her not to. Paloma’s brothers say their sister’s death could have been prevented, and now they’re speaking out against their mom’s anti-medicine beliefs. From calling meat “poison” to claiming WiFi was dangerous, Kate’s ideas shaped Paloma’s choices. Now, with the inquest into Paloma’s death still ongoing, Katie looks at what’s really at stake.
