“Doctors make mistakes but don’t go to jail”, unless they are charge criminally. Watch “Dr Death” or read the magazine article. Officer Potter made a grave mistake. Very different than the story I have referenced.
My husband and I were discussing this just last night. Police officers would benefit from this type malpractice system in their profession, too. If their actions rise to level of criminal than so be it. I do have sympathy for this woman but will say this was a shockingly rookie mistake for a 26 year veteran. Unless you do “life and death” everyday, it’s really difficult to have the skill set to empathize w what split second decision means. It’s different when you can converse about it than when you are in the situation.
