A Costly Mistake

Can you imagine rushing to the hospital to see a dying relative, only to be held up at gunpoint outside the hospital? Well, that happened to Ryan Moats in Dallas today. Officer Robert Powell held up Moats and his wife at gunpoint while Tamishia Moats' mother died.

This story is disturbing on so many levels. I understand that the officer wanted to do his job (Moats ran a red light), but a nurse and security guard confirmed that Moats' mother was dying and the officer still wouldn't let them leave.

Disturbing to say the least. I, for one, hope this cop is fired. He showed no compassion and I hope the Dallas Police show him the same.
