I would look into the nobody has the key answer because that is not the way the system of AEDs are put in and people trained. There is definitely more to that "story". I am only speaking from the training and routine that we went through when we put the AEDs in our neighborhood.
I am not doubting or challenging the word of the OP........I would just like to know more about why the AED routine did not work as intended.......

You are right, I should have said I was disappointed in the situation, not TV. I am disappointed in the fact that no one could get at the AED. I do not know exactly why as I was with the gentleman on the green. When I got back to the starter, I mentioned that I was surprised the AED was not brought out there and I was just told by other people that they "couldn't get at it, it was locked up". I would think that any time an ambulance is called for unknown reasons (not a broken leg or some other obvious reason), that the AED would be brought out IN CASE its needed. Better to have it and not need it.....they are self explanatory so even non medical people can use them. They have directions for putting on the pads and it talks to the person and tells them what to do. They should be easily accessible.
