In Utah, nurse Alex Wubbels has won a $500,000 settlement after being violently arrested by police at the hospital for refusing a police officer’s demand that she draw a blood sample from an unconscious car crash patient. Police body cam video shows the police attacked Wubbels, arrested her and forced her out of the hospital and into an unmarked car on July 26. After the footage surfaced, the hospital said police would no longer be permitted in patient care areas, such as the burn unit where Wubbels was working that day.
