Video: Utah Cop Mugs Nurse Blocking Cop Stealing Blood

A patient is unconscious, after an accident; and a Utah Policeman wants to draw blood. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled no blood can be drawn without warrant or consent.

Cops video cam recorded discussion of fabricating warrant.

When the nurse abused by the law, the cop three her against the wall, accused her if obstruction if justice; and he handcuffed her.

Here's WaPo story

The head nurse at the University of Utah Hospital’s burn unit was arrested July 26 after she told a Salt Lake City police detective he wasn’t allowed to draw blood from a patient.

She said the apologies have went a long way.

My contention is you don't just sue for personal compensation you sue mostly to send a strong message. To force them to change. For the betterment of the public.

He, on the other hand, needs to lose his job or at the very least, be demoted.

There is no excuse for what that officer did. If she's uncomfortable taking the money, give it to the Red Cross for hurricane Harvey relief.
