Langston: I don't know that he's there. I don't know that he made it to the hospital. He was driving himself.

Some seem to have missed that part - she was frantic to find out if he even made it there!

I’m thinking calling the hospital’s emergency room might be a better way to find out, than zooming through a 35 mph zone at 63, and being uncooperative with a police officer who tries to stop that dangerous activity. If she knew more or less what route he was taking, and learned that he hadn’t reached the hospital, the hospital could have sent an ambulance along his route quickly, and he could have gotten medical help as soon as he was found. What was she going to do if she found him stopped or crashed along the way? Call for an ambulance, I imagine. But people don’t always think clearly when they’re upset about something like this, and letting her off the hook was the right thing to do. I’m not sure the police officer shouldn’t have been let off too, but I haven’t watched the video. If the level of force he used would have been deemed inappropriate even if it HAD turned out she’d been lying, then he deserved the suspension.
