    This officer's actions are disgusting. Government officials need to respect the Constitution, the Rule of Law, and the people they serve.https://twitter.com/sltrib/status/903483992745193473 …

        Ppl keep saying "cops like this give cops a bad name" No. It's the guys standing there, hands on hips, giving cops a bad name.

        But without police, who will protect us against the nurses?

        Congress has the authority to eliminate or circumscribe qualified immunity that often lets cops like this off the hook. Food for thought.

        The officer completely, inappropriately loses his temper and any professionalism. What about his superior _telling him to arrest nurse?

        Superior should also be held accountable. I hope the nurse/hospital sues. Sometimes a financial penalty is the only thing that brings change

        No one was "dragged" anywhere. And it wasn't about the law, it was about hospital policy, which btw is not law.

        You're wrong. The Supreme Court has ruled that blood draws require a warrant or probable cause, and the officer admitted he had neither.pic.twitter.com/n5LFNsQTqv

        If an officer forced a blood test without a warrant, I would have a 4A lawsuit on my hands and the test would be tossed.

        Let's hope you never have to put that logic to the the rest cause I can tell you for a fact you will lose.

        I have Supreme Court precedent backing me, so that's very unlikely.

        All an officer needs is probable cause. Hospitals don't like it but usually comply. This nurse chose policy over a lawful order.

        The officer admitted on the scene that he didn't have probable cause. His order was not lawful.
