    Your link doesn't work. Here's one that does.

    But this is also an example of why we need universal health coverage, or Medicare for everyone. It would be CHEAPER on the system rather then people constantly using the ER.

    It would be appropriate if the FBI became the lead agency for this (murder) case. 1. The doctor(s) and nurse(s) hospital personnel file must be looked at for the following: discipline, training, and complaints. 2. Hours worked that day. 3. Whereabouts prior coming to work. 3. Credit card purchases. 4. Personal medical history file (prescriptions). 4. Forensics must be done on all home computers, some job computers, hospital phones in the area, and cell phone(s)/ home phone. 5. Investigate what religion and clubs the doctor(s) and nurse(s) belong to.
    The police officers should have called for a supervisor to respond to the hospital. No need to rush. Gather the facts before you react. Big mistake by the police officers. Could be charged with murder. It sounds like these doctor(s), nurse(s) and police officers stereotype / profiled this woman by guessing, not listening to Ms. Brown, and not following guidelines. The only way to stop this behavior is sending all parties involved to prison and the biggest lawsuit in history. (Remember some African-American doctors and nurse profile against other African-Americans.)

    News articles about former Vice President Dick Cheney's heart transplant and Anna Brown's death in St. Louis illustrate the great unfairness in medical and social treatment.

    At some point, Mr. Cheney complained of difficulty walking or standing, and his doctors discovered a "deep venous thrombosis (blood clot) in his left lower leg." Doctors used ultrasound to monitor his clot.

    Ms. Brown voiced the same complaints, stating that her legs hurt so badly that she couldn't stand. She gave the doctors her history of having 'sprained her ankle." There is no mention in the Post-Dispatch article of whether tests or X-rays were performed to provide a conclusive diagnosis of a sprained ankle versus a broken ankle, which can have far greater consequences.
