The 911 call / Let's Go Back To The 911 Call
« on: November 30, 2009, 12:30:30 PM »
Here is an interesting comparison.

Remember the questions about the 911 call dispatcher hanging up before the paramedics arrived at Carolwood Drive??  I think we all came to the unanimous conclusion that it is NOT the norm for the dispatcher to hang up before the paramedics arrive so take a look at this part of the 911 call from 25th June:

DISPATCH: We're on our way, we're on our way. I'm just passing these questions on to paramedics who are on their way there.
CALLER: Thank you, sir. He's pumping, he's pumping his chest, but he's not responding to anything, sir. Please.
DISPATCH: OK, we're on our way. We're less than a mile away. We'll be there shortly.
CALLER: Thank you, sir. Thank you.
DISPATCH: OK, sir. Call us back if you need anything else.
CALLER: Yes, sir.


Compare it to this part of the 911 call made following Tiger Woods car crash outside his own home:

Caller: We're just trying get the police here right now. We don't know what happened. We're figuring that out right now. I'm on the phone with the police right now.
Dispatcher 2: Your phone's breaking up. Can you hear me though, sir?
Caller: Yes.
Dispatcher 2: While we have paramedics on the way, I'm just gonna stay on the phone with you. If you find out further just let me know. I'm going to stay on the phone, OK?
Caller: Hello.
Dispatcher 2: I'm here.
Caller: Yes.
Dispatcher 2: OK. We got paramedics on the way, but I'm going to stay on the phone in case you find out further.


Notice the difference?  Now I appreciate that one call was in LA and the other in Florida but I am certain that the procedure is the same regardless of which State you're in.

Just further proof that the 911 call on 25th June is a load of hocum!!  ;)

Hi all,

finally made it over here to the new forum.

Good work Souza.  I know it's not easy maintaining a forum especially with so many members and a database busting at the seems.

I'm sure we'll all be OK now but I'm glad that the other forum is still available as read only and that none of our precious threads will be lost.
