The nurse was only doing what she was told. she was not an individual but an agent of the hospital. Arresting her would not get the LEO the blood. The order has to come from someone above her. Nurses are not allowed to draw blood with out a doctors order. When given the standards that the police gave then one when blood can be draw. Exigent circumstance was on the legal document. When the watch commander was told this. He should of order a warrant to be . . . oh wait they don't have probable cause. SO they have no rights for the blood.

[@theleonson100]

I disagree with you about the hospital because I has seen a similar situation and the hospital protected the nurse. The hospital lawyers, higher ups, and security was on scene to protect the nurse but this hospital higher up was talking through the phone. That this why they, the hospital, and the police department with her

[@tho_tho]

From another video, this whole thing was apparently the cops literally trying to find a scapegoat to avoid blame, because the person being in a coma ended up that way in a car accident caused during a police chase where the person they were chasing crashed into the dude and the car blew up. They were trying to accuse him of being intoxicated to make the claim that, because of that, he was responsible for the crash, not the cops messing up the chase, then that led to this. Just to give you more insight on how corrupt departments can be.

[@josephamoroso3828]

At 6:36 the backup officer asked, "Why don't we just get a search warrant?" The 1/2 million dollar question of the day! By this point in the medical evaluation and treatment, the hospital had already drawn the blood sample. It is part of the medical record. If they had Probable Cause, any Judge would have granted them a search warrant. The original blood draw would be enough to use in court, they did not need to do a fresh draw. In fact, the blood draw that the officer was trying to get would have resulted in a LOWER blood alcohol content that the hospital's original draw. My bigger question is, how can they charge an individual with refusing to perform the blood draw when they don't have the authority to force someone to perform it. Even with a warrant, she, personally, can't be held accountable and forced to perform the draw. The responding Supervisor was clueless.

[@CorettaJG]

I heard him respond to that question that they didn't have "PC."

[@therealwildboar1007]

Exactly this line of logic at the end. I was questioning; how can you force a medical professional to perform a procedure against their will. The worst you can do is get them fired and get another professional to do it but there is no grounds whatsoever in any Western country let alone America to compel someone to do a procedure. This is on the level of what you’d expect from North Korea or a terrorist organisation. And I don’t make those comparisons lightly

I am of the mind that these kinds of cases should be treated like child support is treated in the US. Base it on what we know the person is capable of making. If you made 50K per year, you need to pay at least half, if not more, toward what is owed on the lawsuit. If you can make 50K, but voluntarily choose to take a lower-paying job, you should have to pay the same amount, regardless. A refusal to pay will result in a seizure of assets, and potential jail time. In addition, the debt owed to the individual should be treated like a student loan in that it does not go away by declaring bankruptcy. The taxpayers should DEFINITELY not be the ones who have to pay for the poor decisions made by officers.

I resigned on account of petty political BS, but my actual work was actually fascinating, even fun. The corruption has been going on for much, much longer. How is this not clear to average citizens? I believe that at the very least it's highly likely that the majority of 'civil servants' fail to understand the definition of that term, much less the meaning of either of those two words!
