Authorities say a Utah police officer who was caught on video roughly handcuffing a nurse because she refused to allow a blood draw has been fired.
A Salt Lake City Police spokesman said Chief Mike Brown made the decision Tuesday following an investigation into Detective Jeff Payne, who made the arrest that became a flashpoint in the ongoing national conversation about police use of force.
Body-camera video showed nurse Alex Wubbels explaining hospital policy required a warrant or formal consent to draw blood from the patient injured in a July 26 car crash. Payne had neither but insisted. The dispute ended with him dragging her outside as she screamed she had done nothing wrong. Watch the video and read more on the story here.
Police later apologized and changed their policies.
For any of those who missed this story back at the beginning of last month, this is what went down that day.
Some people become police officers to protect the public, but some become cops because they want to exert power of others.
And I still think that if this nurse had been black this cop would have remained on the force.

ReplyDeleteOT "“I felt like a woman who ran to be commander-in-chief, president of the United States, the first one ever, who talks about women’s empowerment, took an awfully long time to give support to those women who were coming forward,” CONway said. “And has still — as far as we know — kept the money, kept the dirty money that dirty Harvey has given her in her campaign.”
ReplyDelete“She needs to not be a hypocrite on women’s empowerment,” she added. “And what it means to be pro-woman. She spent one solid month at this time last year talking about [the Access Hollywood audio tape in which Trump admits groping women] from 11 years earlier, where a statement was made by the now-president of the United States, who was victorious!”"

"''Blinded by the Right: The Conscience of an Ex Conservative'' (Crown Publishers), which is scheduled to be published in September.
Describing an article he wrote for The American Spectator, a conservative magazine, in 1992, which became the basis for his book on Ms. Hill, he said he did everything he could to ''ruin Hill's credibility,'' using ''virtually every derogatory and often contradictory allegation I had collected on Hill into the vituperative mix.''''I demonized Democratic senators, their staffs, and Hill's feminist supporters without ever interviewing any of them,"
" Mr. Brock has disavowed his conservative activism, and criticized his own and his former colleagues' attacks on their main targets, Bill and Hillary Clinton."
"In the Talk article, Mr. Brock said the incident involving the intermediary occurred in 1994 as he was preparing a review of a book, ''Strange Justice: The Selling of Clarence Thomas,'' by two Wall Street Journal reporters, Jill Abramson and Jane Mayer, for The American Spectator. Ms. Abramson is now the Washington bureau chief of The New York Times; Ms. Mayer is a Washington correspondent for The New Yorker."

"Justice Thomas had an obsessive interest in pornography"from "Graffiti Video" Mr. Brock wrote that he used the information to intimidate her into recanting her account, threatening that he would ''blacken her name, just as I had done to every other woman who had impugned Thomas's reputation.''Mr. Brock wrote that in an effort to protect the conservative political agenda, he ''consciously lied'' in the review of
''Strange Justice'' in The American Spectator."
"In the review, Mr. Brock wrote that there was no evidence that Justice Thomas had ''ever rented one pornographic video, let alone was a habitual consumer of pornography.''
In the excerpt, Mr. Brock writes: ''When I wrote those words I knew they were false. It was the first and last time that I consciously put a lie in print.''"

Cool. Was he smoke before he was fire? Or was he smoked before he was fired?
ReplyDelete"And I still think that if this nurse had been black this cop would have remained on the force."
ReplyDeleteLol. Now your last resort is inserting make believe racism for a situation that had NOTHING to do with race? Maybe you should put blackface on the nurse! Is this all Democrats have left? Label everyone that isn't black a racist (unless you are a white liberal of course)? Good luck in 2020 fool!
Good thing she's not black; she'd have been shot for resisting.
ReplyDeleteGood - as to the cop! He should be gone due to his work ethics!
ReplyDeleteHey G. From the spelling Nazis. You missed a d on fire. Ah well. We've all done that. I've know some people to sent off a hot post intending to say fucking and instead it showed ducking. My own comments have translated into things I misspelled. I had a suspicion that Russia filters all liberal blogs like this one and our comments gets mixed in translation.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, yes. About the white nurse. Yes. That is exactly how it works. If she was black she would have been shot. Lucky day for her she was white. I am glad she gave them hell.
If this was Florida, the cop would have shot her dead and claimed he feared for his life ... and he would still be employed.
ReplyDeleteAmen!!!
