EMTs Accused of Ignoring Dying Woman Get Suspended, Investigated

Two New York Emergency Medical Technician's employed by the New York Fire Department were suspended yesterday for failing to help a pregnant woman after she had collapsed. Instead, according to reports, they directed people to call 911. How's that for cold comfort?

Both mother and baby died. Results of the autopsy are pending.
Read the article here at Gothamist for a chilling account of indifference by people who are paid to help injured victims.
