So many ignorant, non-empathetic people here who does not understand the issues at hand.
You clearly don't understand the complexities of mental health issues and addiction.
You don't understand that the police shouldn't have responser at all.
She should have been taken to the hospitals by paramedics.
If only they did that instead, this wouldn't have happened.
By the police responding at all, they're to blame.
She's clearly extremely sick, and her illness is valid.
You wouldn't to that to any other patient. As soon as there's talk about someone struggling with addiction and/or mental illness(es), police respond, regardless if the person is violent or not. When an addict/mentally ill person is violent/erratic, paramedics should've responded with maybe an officer or two for backup if needed to protect the paramedics.
This wasn't a police case in any way, and they shouldn't have responsed and abused their powers. They're not properly trained to handle sick people. She's a patient, not a criminal. Get it in your heads people. You're too ignorant, acting like you know what's up.
