but the constitution is pretty clear on this issue and the cop is wrong.

You've never worked in the ER have you? When in doubt, you are supposed to err on the side of the pt., but there's no guarantee it won't get your arse in a bind. She did everything right and he should've waited on administration.

Actually the nurse's supervisor was on the phone and his supervisor was telling him to do the draw anyway.

The problem here is that he lost his cool. Even if he wanted to arrest her it wasn't necessary to do it violently. All he had to do was inform her she was under arrest and to put her hands behind her back to get cuffed.

Of course, the charge would have been tossed but the point is that cops with an anger problem shouldn't be in uniform.
