Damn... Just found out one of my best friends from grade school and part of high school just got sentenced to 15 years. I stopped talking to him 2 years ago in our junior year when he got into some pretty heavy drugs.
All 4 got 1st degree murder and armed robbery (even though only one had a gun, not sure if they all knew he had it though).
This seems so insane to me...

edit: I got it mixed up. 17 year old pulled a bb gun, dealer pulled a real one.
I'm kinda wondering why they got charged with homicide in that case...
Also very true what desert said. I just dont get the whole thing, including why you would rob a dealer with a bb gun..

So... apparently the night nurse and tech at my hospital are [Summer's Eve]. Good to know... and no... I might not forget you yelling at me for doing what my attending wanted. Go yell at the attending... oh, wait... your not that stupid on your little power trip.

If you are involved in a crime where a murder was committed all parties involved in the crime can be charged with the murder (doesn't matter who shot who).

At least I heard that on an episode of 48 hours on television so take it for what it's worth haha.

First arrest I witnessed after my arrival with the patient. Conscious V-tach with severe respiratory distress, one attempt at sync cardioversion, then onto a slow PEA>death. Poor guys last sensation was of me shocking the hell out of him, and his last words were answering me with his weight for the Etomidate dose calculation I never got to administer.

Pushed sodium bicarb on an arrest last night, I was trying to come with a way to "get orders from Rampart" for it but I just couldn't think fast enough.

We got ROSC but lost it pulling into the hospital. Pushed epi in the room and got maybe two seconds of vfib before asystole returned. The doc looks at the monitor and says "well she had a shockable rhythm at one point, pop her with 360." Whatever you say doc, Lifepak charging.

I had a patient yesterday who had a syncopal episode, possibly V-Fib arrest, while ridding his ATV who then crashed into an electric fence, got shocked, and then woke up. You can't make this stuff up.

I also had to bag a patient through a BiPap mask which surprisingly worked great.

Bagging a patient through a CPAP mask is great. It's already an awesome seal.

I hate those nights at work when you lay down fully exhausted praying for no hard work before daylight.

Murphy knows how you feel and calls in his henchman.
