Okay. WTF is this now?????
Article is skimpy on details.
The story is poorly written and atrociously displayed on a laughably cluttered webpage, typical of the confused, directionless conservative media attempts to somehow mount a challenge to the MSM monopoly.
Unless somebody thought the Doctor was touching the victim inappropriately, I can’t see why he was treated that way, except for one reason. Somebody knew this Doctor is a Friend of Donald Trump, so they had to find some way to give this man a hard time, even though he was trying to help someone.
My second career is as a pediatric outpatient nurse. My #1 patient is a seizure prone 17yr old. Getting attention in the first minute or two is critical. Valtoco is a nasal spray that stops most seizures instantly. One dose up each nostril. As an ER physician he would know this and if the deputies had not been such tools, he would probably could have made sure of her safety and had the deputies contact her parents to find out if she had had prior seizures and was on any meds. I’ve never heard of law enforcement handcuffing docs except in larger city ER’s where the doc’s and nurses want to see a searh warrant before taking samples from a patient. Crazy , just Crazy
Next time just walk away. It doesn’t pay these days to be a Good Samaritan, or a physician offering help. No good deed today goes unpunished. Let some other sap step forward next time.
There’s little trust in America today. Take that anyway you want.
Small town of about 1000, about thirty miles east of Amarillo.
Being a small town where everyone knows everyone, there has to be some political animosity towards the Doctor/Politician to cause this arrest.
Unreal. Nearly a certainty this was a cop on a power trip. Guaranteed Jackson was doing normal doctor stuff for her.
There are a lot of crazies out there who should be locked up. The cop didn’t know who Ronny Jackson was. He could have been one of the crazies who have no right to be involved in a medical emergency.
Jackson should have presented ID first, called 911 (in case current medical assistance was incompetent) and given advice, and assisted if allowed to.
Cops aren’t mind readers and fail also.
If the kids OK, that’s all that counts.
