... WOW. I cant believe what i just read. I would have started beating some ass. And of course leave it to the LA police to try and arrest her as she is vomiting blood. Probebly a Traffic warrent. Fucking assholes.
Someone should go beat the shit out of all of that hospital staff and then go over to the 911 dispatcher and kick the shit out of them.

In actuality, I just remembered a story about that hospital a long time ago, they were trying to shut it down because there were a LOT of people that would go there without insurence (Mainly hispanic, nothing against them but this is what the story said) and they would be treated for an illness or something and then wouldnt pay up when the bill came. So the hospital was in dire need of funding but the government wanted to close it down. They never did, but it looks like they should have.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther_King_Jr.-Harbor_Hospital found this on that hospital.

Fucking close the hospital already or restaff the whole thing.
Quote from link above
"On August 22, 2003, the Los Angeles Times reported that two women connected to cardiac monitors died after their deteriorating vital signs went undetected. In December 2003, DHS closed the cardiac monitoring ward of King/Drew after a third patient died under questionable circumstances. A consulting group was hired to help fix issues with the nursing staff, with DHS spending nearly $1 million.

In a January 13, 2004 report, the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) determined that King/Drew was out of compliance with minimum requirements for receiving federal funding, citing the work of government inspectors who identified five patients who died at King/Drew after what were determined to have been grave errors by staff members. By March, CMS declared King/Drew patients were in "immediate jeopardy" of harm or death because of medication errors at the hospital, citing numerous mistakes and threatening to pull federal government funding from the public hospital. An example in this report cited a meningitis patient receiving a potent anti-cancer drug for four days. In June CMS again stated that patients were in jeopardy, citing the use of Taser stun guns to subdue psychiatric patients. Yet again, it threatened to pull federal funding but backed away; federal funding makes up over half of King/Drew's $400 million operating budget.
