funcoscott

It was a combo of Halloween and Presidents Day weekend.

I dont know if any one posted on the Bronco that rolled over on that girl on Sunday night Prez weekend?

I hope the girl is OK she is friggen really tuff. Unbelieveable how she stayed really calm.

We were camped right below the accident. Two boys on quads came haulin a$$ into our camp and told us a Bronco had rolled and a girl was hurt really bad. So we followed the two boys to the Bronco and girl. She was about 15 feet from the Bronco laying on the ground. She broke both femurs and other injuries. I called 911 what a joke that was. They told me to have someone go to hi-way 127 and meet the ambulance. I tried telling the 911 operator that their was a Sheriff sub station out their, to connect them with me. I had the GPS cordinates. Or she could call them. We sent a friend to the sub station for help. The KEYSTONE Sheriffs showed up what a cluster %^$* that was. With the paramedics. The camera crew was there filming the injured girl. (Court TV). and the whole fiasco!!

I think every sheriff was there with no vehicle to transport her out. That old vw beam car with no way to haul her out. With the raise in the fees $40 per vehicle you would think they could afford a vehicle to get to and injured person out. Besides a quad so they can lookie loo. After they got her on the gourney they looked at our Rhino and said can we haul her out on that. We told them you can use it for what ever. At least a Glamis they have that Funco with a gourney spot on the passenger side. They carried her a good 1000 ft. up a hill and down the hill and put her in the back of a pickup truck in the bed. She was in some serious pain!! WTF. They drove her to the sub station in the back of that rough truck. She got air lifted from the sub station

The whole emergency escort was friggen stupid. I hope the Sheriffs department gets a hold of that video for some serious training.

Again I hope she is doing alright.

Dont blame the Sheriff deputys I was with them on several rescues and they do an excellant job of stabilizing the victims and getting them out of the dunes. The problam is they dont have the proper equipment and that is not the deputys fault. I know they are trying to get funding for more equipment. Those deputys have the job of both the police and the fire department and I think they do the best job they can with what they got.

your not understanding my point.

i agree that she was in the wrong.

i agree she deserved some sort of punishment.

i disagree with why the rangers treated her like sh*t because of the camera.

other people had been caught for this same offense and got a ticket and nothing more.

she got taken away in handcuffs like she just shot somebody because the camera's were there.

thats my issue.

the camera's have no business being there, and the rangers shouldnt be influenced as easily by them.

I heard your friend was 15 and uncoopertive

Sheeesh!

Ok......let me generalize then. The film crew was in the Funco that was owned by some law enforcement agency.....that is paid for by the public. That is a waste of public funds.

The Funcos following around the sheriffs are privatly owned cars hired by the production company not a dime of public funds were used.
