The nurse clearly wasn't stupid. She was professional.
If being inflexible and getting yourself arrested, after making an invalid and unnecessary argument, is professional.
She was a typical female demonstrating why women make poor leaders. Women are sticklers for following the rules, without regard for progress. Men care more about the progress than with blindly following rules. The male officer was more concerned with progress in protecting the man in the coma than with following unclear rules.
WTF? Look, once more, there are 3 ways to legally collect blood for evidence.
1) Consent from the patient.
2) A warrant
3) The patient is under arrest.
That is it. Just because a police officer stamps his feet and has a temper tantrum is not on the list.
All the officer had to do was place the patient under arrest. He didn't. Why? No cause for arrest. So no cause for forcibly drawing blood. The officer in question is trained to draw blood and would have known this.
As for the woman in a leadership position, she is obviously better qualified than the cop. She followed the rules.
