The EMT workers who let an innocent pregnant woman and her baby die should be charged with manslaughter. I hope they go to jail where their cries for help will be ignored!
Thank you Art Hastings for taking the time to dig deeper into this story before rushing to judge. The workers were not medics and their advice to call 911 was correct. If they had tried to work on the patient without proper expertise there is a huge probability that the patient would still have passed on but then the "big story" would be "emergency workers who were not fully trained in medical procudures took it upon themselves to play hero and caused a woman and her unborn baby to die." There is no "bad guy" in this story.
