ROFLMBO. You cannot possibly be that stupid. You must be trolling for comments out of boredom.
But just in case: She wasn't sequestering the unconscious man, she was simply refusing to take blood from him based on a psychotic cop's demands, in violation of every hospital and police policy, as well as state and Constitutional law.
And, no, the cops could not drag him unconscious out of a hospital bed. They need things like probable cause, exigent circumstances, or a warrant... and they had none of those, and knew that they had none of those. She has every right to refuse to be coerced into committing a felony for them just because they demanded it.
Any free citizen can refuse any unlawful order from any policeman. It will likely make them mad, as it did with the ex-cop here... but that doesn't mean you are bound by law to obey there demand to commit a felony for their benefit.
Idiot.

Yea, I was probably just trolling this thread. I’m in a bad mood.
But, just as a point of correction, a citizen cannot refuse to comply with LE. They tell you to get out of the car and they have no good reason, get ready to be tased. And, perp or victim, the police can arrest anyone they want. It may turn out to have been an illegal arrest, but until it is decided by a court, they can do everything required to effectuate the arrest up to and including doing bodily harm.
Brutal, and deservedly so.
Nicely done.
