cop pulls over pregnant woman whose doctors thought she was having a miscarriage and STOPS her going to the ER for 20 minutes- because her panicked husband honked at him and his partner for blocking the hospital entrance
daily mail ^

A pregnant woman who feared she was having a miscarriage was stopped from going to the emergency room for 20 minutes by an officer after her husband honked at him for blocking the hospital entrance with his car.

Kevin Enciso was driving his pregnant wife Sabrina, 32, to Jackson Memorial Hospital in Florida on doctor's orders because she was in pain from a car accident she was involved in the day before.

But as they approached the hospital in 100F heat on July 28, they found two Miami-Dade cop cars blocking the parking lot entrance as the officers had a chat.

Father-to-be Kevin, 28, decided to honk at the distracted deputies in a bid to rush his wife inside. One officer swiftly moved out of the way while the other decided to conduct a traffic stop.

And despite behind just a few hundred yards from the hospital entrance and in the middle of a medical emergency, the couple were instead interrogated by the officer for 20 minutes - who brushed off Sabrina's concerns since she was still 'breathing.'

It was only after first responders took tearful Sabrina's blood pressure, which was 'sky rocketing,' that the police officers let her pass through and enter the emergency ward.

Sabrina told DailyMail.com that at the time, she was only seven weeks into her pregnancy and had suffered a miscarriage just last year - hence her panic and urgency when she was rushed to the hospital.

After spending multiple hours in the ER following the ordeal, she found out that she was thankfully still pregnant and was in fact expecting twins

Note the one cop was a decent guy. The other had the all-too-common ego trip.

Yeah but, I would not have waited. I would have told the officer it was an emergency and I was taking my wife to the emergency room NOW! SCREEECH.

I will guarantee you that that cop passed his psych eval with flying colors. Psychs are frauds and cannot detect such aholes as this cop. Chances are the shrink is one too.

“So being inconvenienced might have rendered her NOT pregnant?”

Ahh...so you don’t know the meaning of “miscarriage”.

But, to answer your question. Yes, she could’ve been rendered NOT pregnant.

You are wrong. There is absolutely no reason for police to be blocking an ER entrance. No reason at all. I am a retired nurse. What this patient needed was an OB doctor and nurses. Not the EMS the police called.

Cop on ego trip,”How dare you honk at me”, even though the cops were breaking the law. Just sitting there blocking the normal flow of traffic.

Would the stupid cop have done the same thing to an EMS vehicle?

In case anyone ever wonders why the police have the attitude they do, they should just read this thread.

Blocking the entrance to a hospital emergency room to chat?

Some FReepers got an excuse for that.

They really do see those who wear the magic blue clothing as their betters.

Remember their names.

Because these are the people that will turn you in for wrong think.

And pat themselves on the back afterwards.

On doctor’s orders! Those words would automatically trigger some common-sense action by the police.

My son was a federal police officer and sprung into action when on two different occasions, a nearby person had a heart attack. No questions asked, just action by my son and his partner.

Unfortunately both men died due to the severity of their attacks (I survived cardiac arrest when my son got me thru rush hour traffic to an alerted hospital and while I was DOA at the door, the emergency room doctor gave me immediate defibrilator shocks and brought me back to life). It was those few minutes that my son gained for me by his actions that saved me, as well as the quick action by Dr. Dixon).

No delays, no 20 Questions, just common-sense and good professional actions.

I did something similar when two people next to me or talking to me had petit mal seizures. At the Library of Congress, at least 5 staff and visitors immediately attended the man while one called for EMT service. The man was okay.

In the other case at another government research facility, one of the staff that I was talking to suddenly seized up and dropped to the floor. Only a foreign visitor from Germany and myself rendered any aid, not the building police, the nurse was just as useless, nor any other staffer. It was only when I yelled at the staff to get an ambulance did someone finally act.

The staffer eventually recovered but was taken to a hospital for a full check-up. He had to leave his job because of the severity of his seizure problem. A nice young man, too.

Time is of the essence when a medical emergency is involved.

To paraphrase the quote from “Aliens”, - “Get them to the hospital now, just to be sure” that they are okay.

Capish!

It used to be that if your wife was in labor and you were pulled over for speeding as you were headed to the hospital, the cop would instantly assess the situation and tell you "follow me."

He'd then run back to the squad car, turn on his lights and you'd follow him at speeds up to 90mph all the way to the hospital. The cop would radio ahead and hospital workers would be waiting outside to rush your wife right into the delivery room.

At least, that's how it used to be.

“… BTW, AFAIK, at 7 weeks pregnant, there would be nothing that the hospital could have done to “save” a pregnancy besides just telling her to rest....it was not an emergency IMO..…”
******************************************************

Hmmm….l her doctor, who presumably knows her physical situation better than you, told her to go to the ER. So who to believe?

“Obviously the officer who did this needs to be suspended.”


Fired. Jerk has no business being a cop.

"you haven't heard the rest of the story and you've already put the cop on trial!"

If the story is accurate and if I were on the jury, I would push for execution. Blocking someone from the E.R. in an emergency that leads to innocent death is murder.

Give extraordinary powers to any group and you will find some members will abuse them. Of course, some groups are corrupt from the top down and corrupt the whole group. Think about J. Edgar Hoover.

Once again, a miscarriage at 7 weeks isn’t viable, and can’t be saved, nor is it life threatening.

I had one and the doctor made an appointment at the office the same day, and this lady had been bleeding the day before. I was sent home to miscarry, and so I had to wait for the process to complete. Nothing an ER could have stopped.

The doctor was too lazy to make an appointment and directed her to the ER since the woman is most likely is on free medical care.

If that was my pregnant wife and cops delayed treatment, it wouldn’t go well for them.

I guess you’re a cop? They can do no wrong?
