Police manhandle woman in drug bust, ignore her heart attack
Fresh from Drug War Rant:
Militarizing Mayberry at The Agitator. Standard knock-down-the-door-slam-the-residents-to-the-floor-and-cuff-them drug warrior approach for 2.5 grams of marijuana. And sure, ignore the fact that the woman is having a heart attack. When it comes to busting marijuana, who cares about human life, anyway? The woman survived and is suing.
Police refused to give her two baby aspirin or call an ambulance. Later, during questioning, she complained of chest pain again and was rushed to the hospital where she was told she needed surgery.
But on the bright side, they’re charging her with possession of 2.5 grams of marijuana (about a teaspoon full). F’d up? I think so.
