[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2746646, member: 9374"] Should we also talk about how many false injuries and ailments end up in the Emergency Room while in custody? Or how many times someone has a health problem they have ignored for days, weeks, months or even YEARS, yet suddenly becomes an emergency problem as soon as they are booked into the jail? Sure... there are both real and not real. Suffice it to say that officers must by necessity decide who needs to be treated and who doesn't... otherwise every inmate and every officer will be waiting at the ER for evaluation. Tons of inmates will do and/or say/claim ANY kind of ailment if it gets them out of the cell for a few hours. And the more you cater to it, the more the others will see it works. It's a tough line to walk, honestly... trying to decide what's real and what's not. That being said, I have gotten inmates pulled out of the jail system because they were at too high risk of something bad happening, or the system was not providing for their valid medical needs. It sucks both ways, no doubt... [/QUOTE]
