Salt Lake City Detective Jeff Payne is a control freak asshole. He's now on administrative leave.
Payne tried to force the head nurse of a hospital burn unit to let him draw blood from an unconscious patient, which is against the hospital policy and law. Payne didn't have a warrant and the patient wasn't under arrest.
The nurse calmly explained why she couldn't let Payne draw the blood. She also called her supervisor and put him on speaker phone so Payne could listen.
Not getting his way, Payne lost his shit. He forcibly removed the nurse from the area and arrested her. It was all captured on hospital surveillance and police body cam.
This happened in August and is now going viral. The police chief has since apologized publicly. And, the hospital changed its policy to forbid police officers from entering patient care areas without going through a management administrator first.
