[quote:Anonymous Coward 74797622:MV8zODM0NTgxXzY4OTcxMzE0X0U5NDAxMDkz] [quote:Anonymous Coward 58931283:MV8zODM0NTgxXzY4OTcxMTE2XzRDQUE1RDE=] Again, Reed: "...they spent a significant amount of time assessing the victims...they assessed all the victims that did not have apparent fatal injuries." According to Billups, that was most of the victims. How many are we talking, then? Who, specifically, did not have apparent fatal injuries? It was more than one, more than two...but what if it had been only one?? If only one child could have lived, but died due to failure to declare an MCI, that is as significant as it needs to get. We all know it was more than one--but one is enough. [/quote] Was Billups there on scene? Unless he was there, he has no idea what the condition of the victims were. [/quote]
Original Message
John Reed, one of the paramedics brought in to determine death,
said in his own report that
many injuries did not appear to be fatal
.
" ...there were a substantial amount of casualties and
they spent a significant amount of time assessing the victims...Reed stated they assessed all the victims that did not have apparent fatal injuries
...they decided that all victims with obvious non-life sustainable head wounds would be checked with the cardiac machine. Reed stated they re-assessed the victims in the rooms utilizing the cardiac machine." (00002358)
Read that very carefully, and then read it again.
Reed assessed all the victims who had no apparent fatal injuries, and it took a long time because a substantial amount of victims had no apparent fatal injuries.
The injuries were so inconsistent with fatality, that they re-assessed all or the majority with the cardiac machine
in order to be able to justify a determination of death.
Reed's conclusion is supported by Dr. William Billups of Anderson & Rush, who stated, "A lot of these children's injuries were not immediately lethal." [
