"The Brooklyn District Attorney's office is looking into the actions of two emergency medical technicians accused of refusing to help a pregnant woman who collapsed in the coffee shop where they were taking a break."

"Witnesses, first speaking to The New York Post, said the EMTs told employees at the eatery in downtown Brooklyn to call 911 and then left when they were asked to help Eutisha Revee Rennix, an employee who had collapsed."



Nice work New York!

Hi Acumen,

I know you don't live in NY, but generally, do states have laws that may allow a prosecutor to bring criminal charges against those two? I hope so. That was cold!!!!

I would think so.  From a job standpoint, I'm not sure they can do anything about that.  But from a state standpoint, they should be able to revoke their EMT licenses.  And if they can do that, then the employer would fire them because they've become useless.

Or the Big House. For *ahem* 'sensitivity training' from the guys with pregnant women on the outside.

Typically, it takes 15 to 20 years to develop the callousness that those EMTs demonstrated in that shop.  And yet these EMTs had a combined 10 years on the job.  I can pretty much guarantee that they will be finding a new profession after everything is done and over with.
