Do you remember the case of the ER nurse (former Olympic skier) who was arrested for refusing an unlawful demand by police officers to turn over a blood test without a warrant? She was not only within her right, but also under a professional duty, to maintain confidentiality of patient records. The cop did not have a court order for the records. So he arrested her for obstruction of an investigation.
Yep, Salt Lake City PD.

On July 26, 2017, she was unlawfully arrested for “obstructing justice” while on duty as a nurse at the University of Utah Hospital in Salt Lake City. The incident was later made public via the officers’ body cameras. The arresting officer, detective Jeff Payne of the Salt Lake City Police Department, demanded that blood be drawn from an unconscious patient, but Wubbels stated that doing so would be a violation of hospital policy, which required that the patient be under arrest, or had given consent, or that the police were in possession of a warrant (either a printed copy or an electronic one). The patient was the victim in a car crash and was not under arrest, but was unconscious and therefore unable to consent, and the police had not obtained a warrant.[7] She followed hospital policy and refused to allow the officer to draw blood, and the arresting officers proceeded to forcibly put her in handcuffs and into the front passenger seat of their cruiser.[3][8] The year-old hospital policy related to blood draws reflects the legal position in the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), as well as the Supreme Court of the United States’ ruling in Birchfield v. North Dakota and had been agreed to by the police department.
Wubbels was later released without charge.[9] The arresting officer was fired on October 10, and his supervisor was demoted two ranks from Lieutenant to Officer.[10][11][12][13] On October 31, 2017, Wubbels and her attorney announced that Salt Lake City and the University of Utah had agreed to settle the incident for $500,000. She said that part of her settlement will go toward efforts geared to making body cam footage more accessible to the public.[14][15] The incident was one of the reasons Medscape put Wubbels on its list of the best physicians in 2017.[16]
