What the gently caress led up to this situation? Because when a cop pulls you over and is walking up to your car the correct course of action is not "pop out of your car aggressively holding your wallet making jerky motions that look like you're about to draw down on a cop"

They should take more imo or at least spend it better. But yes, I still can't comprehend that americn people could go into major debt/bankruptcy from a child getting injured from being a child or just blind bad luck/genetics.

For reference, My sister was born premature and developed cancer. With two well employed parents who both had no limit insurance plans through work it still nearly beggared our family. While insurance squabbled in court over who was paying for what they still had to drain all their savings and retirements accounts and had to sell equity in their house to cover the incidental expenses that insurance wasn't going to cover anyway. Insurance eventually paid something in the millions and my parents out of pocket bill was something like $120k.

On a positive note my sister is now a really good oncology nurse at a very good hospital.

Health care is complicated.

I understand what you are saying but that's exactly what he did.

The real issue is why the cop had his firearm out in the first place. I simply dont see the justification for it at a minor crash.

Admiral, seven others charged with corruption in new ‘Fat Leonard’ indictment


posted:

During a port visit by the Blue Ridge to Manila in May 2008, for example, five of the Navy officers attended a “raging multi-day party, with a rotating carousel of prostitutes,” at the Shangri-La Hotel, according to the indictment. The group allegedly drank the hotel’s entire supply of Dom Perignon champagne and rang up expenses exceeding $50,000, which Francis covered in full.

On another port visit by the Blue Ridge to Manila in February 2007, Francis allegedly hosted another sex party for officers in the MacArthur Suite of the Manila hotel. During the party, “historical memorabilia related to General Douglas MacArthur were used by the participants in sexual acts,” according to the indictment.

I imagine it's because good Samaritan protections don't cover people you just shot. Better to wait for the actual paramedics to get there, from a strictly medico-legal perspective.

They are certainly less litigious than alive people, but the jury awards and legal penalties tend to be higher. I highly doubt viability of the patient as a witness factors in to cops' procedures for rendering aid though.

I your shooting was justified, the guy can die and you're in the clear. OTOH, since you probably can't establish a meaningful patient relationship, if you try to treat the person you shot you likely open yourself up to civil suits for all sorts of malpractice (and their lawyer is definitely going to claim that whatever damages their client suffered were a result of your interventions rather than the bullet.) IANAL though, just suggesting what I see as plausible.

In Florida "A law enforcement officer, including a police officer, has a legal duty to provide aid to ill, injured, and distressed persons who are not in police custody during an emergency whether the law enforcement officer is on-duty or acting in a law enforcement capacity off-duty." Further, "A law enforcement officer rendering emergency aid to ill, injured, or distressed persons on-duty or acting in a law enforcement capacity while off-duty is acting within the scope of his or her employment" and is thus shielded from liability.

Now I can't speak to other states, but an officer here would be obligated to provide aid to the guy he just shot for no reason up to his level of competence and would be personally shielded from liability for any tort caused by said aid.

I feel like you're really jumping through some hoops to justify Big Country there shooting some dude in the gut for no reason, and then him and the rest of the cops doing the Circle of Death while he bleeds. Also, if they aren't supposed to help because "what if I get sued," why did that one cop glove up right before the EMS crews were arriving?

This is a bad shoot by a bad cop, that got excused for no reason other than that the guy has a badge. I'm sorry if this is really hostile, but my partner at work is a ridiculous police brutality apologist, sheepdog meme poster type guy, and this poo poo is all he can ever talk about.

If they weren't gonna do that I'd be okay with them throwing him some bandages and leaving him uncuffed. Or his hands cuffed in front. Or his fuckin' ankles. You know, anything at all rather than just letting a dude bleed out and forcefully stopping him from helping himself not die.

this is a step in the right direction. perhaps cops should be required to have some sort of base level emt cert as well, considering theyre way more likely to encounter people in need of medical attention than they are people who need to be shot

I know the answer is none at all. And the law only requires aid up to their level of competence, so it's partially by design. I agree with KFFF that they should be at least EMT basic level trained with a moderate first aid kit. I know in most places firefighters are also EMT certified and there's really no good reason for police to not be as well.
