Action Alert: Charges won't be filed against trooper for stopping ambulance during an emergency run!
OKLAHOMA CITY, Oklahoma - June 5, 2009 - Charges won't be filed against troopers or a paramedic, involved in a scuffle near Paden. That's in Okfuskee County.
The paramedic's attorney, Richard O'Carroll, says, "We are disappointed the district attorney did not file charges against the trooper. While we understand his position politically, we believe it would have gone a long way in resolving the matter."
Video surfaced of the scuffle last month, and shows the men came to blows while a patient waited to be taken to the hospital.
The patient's son recorded the clash on his cell phone.
He says the argument started after the ambulance failed to yield to troopers en route to a call.
But the man says the ambulance driver was busy trying to avoid a car that slowed down, and wasn't aware that troopers were nearby until it was too late.
This is another case of the Good Ole Boys protecting one of their own. Haven’t you all had enough of this criminal complicity? How about doing what is Right, since the criminals in government won’t? Call the prosecutor that decided not to bring charges against the stupid criminal cop who interfered with an emergency vehicle in the process of bringing a woman to the hospital. Demand that he either bring charges or resign. If he refuses to do either, then find out where he lives and put the fear of the people into this worthless excuse for a government official. It is your land, your state, and your laws… TAKE ACTION NOW!
