1. Hospital Administration wasn't there, they were on the phone call she was on when she was placed under arrest. 


So you're telling me that the hospital administration (who clearly know the rules) could not communicate with the other officers at the scene (who were working security for the hospital) to intervene and protect this woman since they outnumbered the detective officer? I didn't say anything about attacking the cop. But if the other officers would have spoken to the man or provided any opposition, I doubt things would have unfolded exactly like they did. Those officers are paid to provide security while they are there. They didn't do anything.

So you want the "good cops" to rat on their brothers every time they have to get a little physical to get a suspect to comply? It's gonna be real hard for cops to do their jobs and even harder to kidnap and rape citizens when there's no trust between the boys in blue. But I guess that's what you antifa people want.

You are talking about a security guard Vs police officer standoff of sorts? No way that ends well.

Most of your legit security in a larger hospital are off duty cops working a second job as security. They are in their police uniform but are working for the hospital and not PD. Problem is that they are working likely for the exact same police department or a very close agency. Like a city cop on duty and a county/Parrish sheriff doing his security gig.

How would that have helped?

Who do trust more to communicate a clinical process, a seasoned nurse or a security guard?

That makes no sense. The nurse was the best person to explain that process. Administration was on the phone on the way there when it happened, telling the cop he was making a huge mistake. So again, who do you think can communicate that process better, a seasoned nurse, Admin on the phone, or Hospital Security? No brainer who is last on that list.

I never said anything about getting the security guard to explain the process to him. The nurse or her boss were the perfect people to communicate that to him and the nurse did. The officer was a jackass and wasn't listening to her. The officers would have been the ones to intervene after witnessing what was happening since they work for the hospital to secure the place and provide security to those employed by the hospital. They outnumbered the detective and could have helped to defuse the situation by approaching the guy and talking to him since she obviously was not a threat and doing nothing wrong.

Unless the detective had his pants around his ankles with his dick in his hand, no hospital security guard is going to approach a uniformed police officer to stop him. EVER.

If u are talking about actual cops working security for the hospital as a second job that makes some sense but is still a stretch. You could tell by the body language of all involved that they disagreed with the detective. Maybe he was the ranking guy in the room? The one guy on camera who actually put his hand on the cop looked about 20. He wasn't telling a guy with probably 25 years on him what to do.

See people, THIS is how you handle POS cops. Don't run from them, fight them, or get unruly with them. Just chill out and let the system work. If the cop is truly in the wrong, he will get his just due.

Body cameras are a good thing for the citizenry - why do you think a lot of cops are against them? This case was also witnessed by numerous professional and credible people and got lots of media coverage.

Same cop - without the body camera and the abundance of witnesses - and this incident does not end with him being fired.

I bet he is anti-body camera


also I wonder if the people supporting the officer earlier in the thread feel differently when learning this/

The patient wasn’t suspected of wrongdoing. He was an off-duty reserve Idaho police officer driving a semitrailer when he was hit by a man fleeing police in a pickup truck.

Without a doubt. This is a systemic problem across the country. Not all cops are bad, but there are lots that let the power of a badge and gun go to their head The bad actors for the most part have not ever been held accountable until everyone in the country has a camera in their pockets. Body cameras will hopefully change things.
