Ooops! I meant bambi08757

Donedidit: You sir or mam as it may be, nailed it! Well spoken. But now what worries me is his lack of being able to interpt such a simply written law. Like what or where did he study, G.I Joe comic books? This is kid stuff to any law student or any public for that matter.

Donedidit : You are quoting the law and that is a fact, however, you are not correctly interperting that statute. It does say that a Medical Professional will take the blood (not the officer), but that only means that it must be DONE by a Medical Professional but it does not protest to dictate to a hospital which Medical Professional must do it. If that hospital has a lab tech that normally pulls blood, then the officer would have to wait until a lab tech was available. To bad for his luck. He abused his authority of which he had none in that hospital. He was correctly punished for his abuse.

Anonemoose, try finish reading the rest of that statute you referenced, GS 20-139.1(c). Then answer your own question you posed. The General Statutes are not a smorgasbord of laws that you can pick and choose which parts you want to apply to support a case.

So how did this cop come to pick her, was she even qualifed most hospitals have the lab tecks do it. Someone may have to draw it but what law says her. Gestapo tactics, Hey U! in the white skirt, cause I said so! Hands behind the your back NOW!
