Oklahoma Highway Patrol fight with EMT - media training presentation training

[possumverde]

As for calling the man a scum bag for leaving his patient, that's bullshit. Once the ambulance driver was called out of the bus, the patient is going nowhere. By getting out of the bus to attempt to resolve the issue, the supervisor is doing what he can to speed the trip to the hospital. The longer the cop's temper tantrum lasts, the longer it takes for the patient to be seen by a doctor...The cop was the one showing no regard for the patient not the paramedic.

[onabreeze]

watch the dash cam before you comment.

[onabreeze]

He left his patient what a scum bag. people who are anti police are the ones who get caught by the police. Infact the watch dash cam vid police are recorded all the time and they knew they were being recorded but the ambulance guy in the back who wanted to get in on the action was out of line patient first if it werent for him there wouldnt be any altercation between no one . the cop had lights on sirens the ambulance shoudl have had it lights on to show the cop he was also in a hurry FACT!!

[possumverde]

@onabreeze The man in the back was supposed to get involved, he was the supervisor on the rig. Whatever happens , be it with the driver or the patient it's his responsibility. I agree that the whole thing could have been avoided had the driver flipped on his lights, but that in no way excuse's the officer's action. As soon as he learned there was a patient in the bus, he should have let them go and filed a grievance. Instead, he grabbed a guy by the throat. Not exactly standard procedure.

[trotskiii3]

Just imagine what isnt caught on tape. ?

makes you wonder looking around at these video's on you tube.

it just shows the dangerous tactics officers in the US are using against US citizens.

police are there to uphold the law. and protect people, not kick the shit out of them.

and by the looks of the officers in the US. They are NOT protecting US citizenzs.

there has to be more proffesionalism. there acting like scum, there acting like animals, thk fuk i dont live there. rouges

[trotskiii3]

nothing needed to be changed here you dick.

the cop was simply unjustified in how he acted and acted like a propper prick.

there could have been an emergency right there and the cop didnt give a fuk.

the guys simply out of order.

and your simply talking shit

[ArrestAJudgeKit]

Good insight!

[Charles195th]

Only a moron would "automatically" support the police. this is what they do every fucking day...obviously they aren't used to it being recorded...yet !

[savemorecash]

This however, should not have been video taped! Waist of my time, There are enough videos of this mess on the internet already,

[ArtManVX]

I 100% agree

from now i'll take small cam withe me > yahooooo

[66belvedere]

What's the point to this video.This guy needs a hobby?

[Wax1]

So cops shouldn't treat like this because it is wrong or someone could be filming them with a video camera????

[wasjunk]

like we are not smart enough to know when some one is out of line.....cops like this is the norm

if that had been any one but a cop,he would have been

tazed ,spayed, and hauled a away

thnx for cameras that show the true way OKLAHOMA

is OK with this kind of behavior

[captaincookiemonster]

The most disturbing thing about these videos is the people who continue to support the police officer; even when they shoot people in cold blood. Notice I didn't say criminals. A guy is face down in handcuffs and a cop shoots him in the back and there are still people who will say things like "the guy had it coming". They actually condone execution. In the minds of these people a)the cops are always right and b)when the cops are wrong see a). When cops get killed I have no remorse. KARMA.

[mikebott]

what is sad about the replies i see to videos about this incident is that some low- IQ posters will continue to defend the cop even after a) knowing that the state law makes what he did a serious felony, and b) finding out that he had been fired from another LE job for the same kind of behavior.... knowing these things but keeping up the support is craven bootlicking.

[thstheman]

cameras don't lie they don't forget they and they don't hurt innocent people they show it as it is, for no lies to cover up the truth. It's my right to film and you can't take that away. Ya'll don't like it because the cameras show the whole story.........................­..............................­...........

[tharblin]

Cops will never admit they are wrong. One time They arrested me for driving without a license. Come to find out It was for car insurance but I had two overlapping policies. The judge said just pay a fine and we'll call it even. By this time I was still sitting in jail for three weeks. I don't know why Gov't thinks this is normal treatment towards it's citizens though looks like money got them off my back. I don't trust Gov't people at all.They are the sleaziest group I gave ever ran into.

[boamuro]

Uhh, thanks for stating the obvious, Mr. Texas TJwalker.

And for your info, only "puppets" immediately support towards the police's defense.

[StinkFingerr]

Smile officer,you're on candid camera!

[lkcthp104]

Well TJ, the cops posted their video too. The cop video was clearer and shows more. Cop was wrong, but the crowd was really wrong. You don't run into an event. Document and watch but don't jump in...unless you too want to ride to the lockup.

[dellmac1]

cops sucks

[mykidsdad36]

first if you watch the dashboard cam of the police car,you can tell the ambulance driver had just went around a car when the cop car run up behind him.The EMT did not hit his brakes til the cop started around him,because like he said he did not see him til then.I mean he was watching traffic in front not behind and inside the ambulace is noisey with scanners etc.... The cop was clearly out of line and choking that EMT was brutality 100% and he should be put in jail himself,if it were us," JAIL"

[Austin2161]

@Gyolape26 i'm not trying to bash you but I hope you don't become a kings shit cop like martin just cause you have a badge and a gun.but any way like testiculus1 said martin should be brought up on charges and placed in jail.

[Gyolape26]

you are right I am student of criminal justice and in the academy they teach the future police officers of the power they have with the gun or they actions

[flynbryan41]

thanks professor!

[marcc74]

i'm wondering what part of putting your hands around a paramedic's throat is justified? i dont care what "angle" it's filmed from.......jackhole.

[marinegirlfriend233]

@marcc74 its not justified BUT the medic shldnt have fought, and the COP shouldve waited to "arrest" confront the medics, BUT the medic was warned to get back in the ambulance numerous of times, as an emt i understand the medic wantin to get to the hospital BUT he shldve got on the radio and called for assistance

[jerryg65]

1:10 of my life that I will never get back

[tej123451]

uh....thanks for wasting my time dumb ass!

[stowles1]

is this TJ Hooker's cousin? i already can't remember what he said and i just watched it...oh my

[mecroman1]

because he didnt really have much of a point or make any sense untill the end

[GoodImp0A]

As I stated in a previous post, I believe both parties are at fault. The EMT's should've had their emergency lights on and the officer's behavior. They should be disciplined, not fired.

[testiculus1]

They don't flash their lights if they are just transporting a patient. The officer needs to be FIRED period. You cannot pull over another emergency vehicle for not yielding if there is room to go around, which there was.

[DJVOLLMERSTHF]

hey dumbass if a cop is on your ass with their sirens on you better move over no matter what

[OneTruFu]

No matter what?? What if I am a COP too dumbass?

[crapatio]

AYE AYE SIR!!!!!

[Normwicks]

cops tghink the citizens are stupid. we see what is going on . we dont need to have it iterpreted for us .halfe of the cops i ever met , are sadistic jerks with a gun to back up thier scared light asses. there is no reason to choke a citizen . this cop went after the emt only because the cop didnt like t6he emt telling him to not talk to his driver in an abusive manner. cops do that alll day long because they have an attitude. did any one see the emgcy the cop was going to an emcy?

[AppA]

"...people reflexively support police..."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

no.

[jojowhiskas]

Hey TJ..Zzzzzzzzz....Zzzzzz.....Zz­zzzzzzz.....

[Pack6Joe]

The only crimes I saw was committed by the "law enforcement" guy. What crimes did you see?

The officer intentionally delayed emergency medical providers by peace officers of the state of Oklahoma. That is a crime. See Oklahoma State Code §21-650.3. Delaying, obstructing or interfering with emergency medical technician or other emergency medical care provider

[pmarceau]

Pack6Joe: Am I correct to assume that as soon as the Trooper was informed there was a patient in the ambulance, He should have followed them to their destination, and then resolved the situation? Or even just let them go on their way.

Failure to yield doesn't seem like a life and death situation, unless it results in a collision.

I am sure everyone has heard the term "Serious as a heart attack"

[Pack6Joe]

Exactly, my friend.

[marinegirlfriend233]

@Pack6Joe the very true, BUT the medic shldve gotten back in the ambulance and the cop shldve followed them to the hospital, they BOTH were at fault, the medic faught back and resisted arrest (granted i wouldve too) but alot of this couldve been avoided.

[thinKnova]

T.J Walker you suck. You have taken a major issue, a interestingly damaging situation,... and have made it more boring than watching an old man fart and sleep for hours.  Do not quit your day job, and if you don't have one get one you opinionless ass.

[evelmassa]

I say to the cops to keep being smart asses and tasing grannies. Do it enough to create a rage against your very existence. Do it until that badge becomes meaningless and doesn't protect you anymore.

[zendingo19]

thats one minute and ten seconds of life gone....... i blame you tj walker

[robinall]

Duh.......

[loisannfisher]

T.J. will waist your time, telling you what you already know.

[CzReese]

Dam shame!

[nstanaway]

There is nothing wrong with accountability. These officers can and absolutely should be charged. If the family decides to sue they would win, as would the Paramedic. Your point is valid but you need to truly understand this video before you assume it "just looks bad" for the "criminal" which in this case are actually the officers.

[nstanaway]

If you were educated on the laws regarding EMS and our job you would know that in fact what the police were doing here is the crime. You cannot touch an EMT or PARAMEDIC while they are caring for a patient. It is against the law and in fact in another month in Oklahoma will be a FELONY.

[walterfireson]

medical care is priority. fuck these pigs.

[bbvivertube]

this is not "crime on the streets". This is a paramedic (another emergency personnel) attempting to do his job, NOT A CRIMINAL. Get a grip!

[lilcoco77007]

Thank You! Well said...

[Lungyao1]

Been making that point for months now.

[johnathan343]

Good video Mr. Walker
