In a bold move for academic and medical freedom, David K. Clements, former Assistant Professor of consumer protection and business law at New Mexico State University (NMSU), has filed a lawsuit against the university and its Board of Regents for breach of contract and violation of the New Mexico Unfair Practices Act. The legal action follows his dismissal on October 15, 2021, for refusing to comply with NMSU’s COVID-19 vaccine and mask mandates—mandates Clements asserts violated federal law by denying informed consent and refusing medical procedures.

Standing Up for Academic and Medical Freedom
“It is difficult to announce this lawsuit in the wake of the Charlie Kirk assassination. He fought for free speech on campuses just like NMSU,” Clements said. “Before his life was tragically taken, lives and reputations were destroyed on campuses across America for exercising our First Amendment right to combat forced injections, masking, and invasive testing. I will fight these monsters with everything I have.”

Clements argues that NMSU’s mandate disrupted education for both students and faculty, which collectively generate $2.6 billion in economic output. According to the Complaint, the university exploited its position over students and faculty to pressure compliance with an experimental vaccine, offering virtually no scientific data regarding risks.

“The university effectively took bribe money tied to the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund (HEERF), the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, among others. They chose to rake in millions of dollars rather than look out for the health and safety of faculty and students,” Clements said.

A Troubled University Record
NMSU’s history of legal controversies underscores the climate Clements faced. Over the past five years, the university has settled multiple high-profile lawsuits totaling over $9.5 million, including:

  • $8 million settlement in June 2023 with former basketball players for hazing and sexual assault claims.
  • $495,000 settlement in March 2024 with former provost Carol Parker for discrimination and retaliation.
  • $1 million settlement in July 2025 with a female student alleging mishandling of a sexual assault case.
  • Additional undisclosed settlements, including with former basketball coach Greg Heiar.

Clements’ challenge comes amid a shifting medical landscape. The CDC in 2025 withdrew vaccine recommendations for children and pregnant women, while Moderna now requires placebo-controlled trials for its COVID-19 vaccines—vindicating his concerns about mandates imposed without informed consent.

The Legal Case and Broader Implications
Clements seeks reinstatement to a tenured position and compensatory and treble damages under the Unfair Practices Act, citing “willful and unconscionable” conduct by NMSU. He has requested preservation of all related records to ensure transparency and accountability.

His case aligns with a growing trend of COVID-19 litigation victories, including:

  • $7.8 million verdict for six San Francisco Bay Area Rapid Transit District employees (October 2024).
  • $10.3 million class-action settlement for NorthShore University HealthSystem workers (December 2022).
  • New York Supreme Court order reinstating 1,700+ workers with backpay (July 2025).
  • U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi dropping charges against Utah surgeon Michael Kirk Moore (July 12, 2025).

“Over the years, many donors to NMSU have reached out asking how they could help, upset that their sons and daughters’ lives were put at risk,” Clements said. “Blood clots, myocarditis, miscarriage, turbo cancers, have all emerged on the scene. I put my career on hold to fight for honest elections, knowing we would have never seen the corrective actions emerging at the CDC, without RFK Jr. taking the lead at HHS.”

Clements: A Formidable Challenger
David K. Clements is no ordinary plaintiff. A licensed attorney with eight first-degree murder convictions as a prosecutor, a “Prosecutor of the Year” award, and experience dismantling a drug trafficking organization in southern New Mexico, Clements has successfully defended against six political investigations aimed at stripping his law license.

Ironically, he was honored with NMSU’s most prestigious teaching award the day before being suspended for refusing to subject students to experimental medical procedures. The moment was captured in his documentary, Let My People Go, symbolizing his fight for integrity, truth, and freedom in academia.

This lawsuit is not only a personal battle but a larger confrontation over institutional overreach, the rights of faculty and students, and the broader implications of forced medical interventions in higher education.
