Re: Arrested for drunk in charge when actually Hyperglycaemi
Sorry
But if you want anybody let alone a police officer to treat you with any degree of respect and courtesy, then you must be courteous and respectful to them! Which by all accounts it sounds as though you weren't!
Your reactions to everything seems to be based around 'having' too much to drink! And not the claims of reacting to hyperglycaemia concerns!
You were aware that you had no meter, before you started your meal (lunch time business meeting) you are arrested sometime after 9pm, going by you were being booked into the police station at 10pm! You don't mention whether you injected any insulin to cover the meal you had... But you had plenty of time, to either go find a chemist, purchase a cheap meter to use, or even visit a A&E department... Even when you finally arrive at your car, you still don't take any actions to resolve the apparent, medical emergency you are in/heading for! So can't have been that concerned about it!
The police officer that arrested you, would have initially given you the benefit of doubt! It's likely he's clocked you at some point leaving the train station and heading towards your car! There would have been something in your body movement that indicated something was afoot with you! He would held back to see what actions you took when you reached your car to give you the benefit of the doubt... You actions indicated there was a very high probably that your intentions were to drive your car, when clearly for some reason you weren't fit to do so!
It's no wonder when you tried to explain your woes, about your diabetic concerns he didn't take your word, as if there was any real substance to your tale of concern, the first thing you would have done after unlocking you car, would be to retrieve the meter that still sat in your Glove Compartment!
At the police station again, it seems that apart from being effected from the alcohol you've consumed, you showed no other signs in being in immediate medical danger! Your responses were consistent with a unreasonable individual who's consumed alcohol... You aren't showing a degree of confusion or unresponsiveness, no complaints of stomach pains, now shallow breathing etc all indicators consistent with a diabetic requiring emergency medical help!
The police called the Duty Doctor, even requested him to visit! The duty Sargent has no control to the time spam involved concerning when the doctor decides to attend the prisoner!
You were monitored, but again didn't show signs of a deterioration of your diabetic original presentation on health grounds, so nothing to warrant an emergency response from a paramedic, a case of keep monitoring and await the doctor!
You then decide to gain further attention, that you would fake a 'suicide attempt' you set this into motion, get the response, didn't anticipate the fact is, when this happens the officers will go into a set and well trained/drilled protocol of actions, to restrain you to prevent you from harming yourself! Which is also designed to maintain their personal safety! And now moaning about being put on suicide watch after this event!
A doctor visits at 3am, to check you over explains that sorry, no background insulin available, but this doesn't matter as you can be treated with your quick acting insulin, as to no ketone test well, if you'll not displaying any other symptoms of DKA, then it's very likely that standard treatment of providing a correction dose is all what's required!
You are again checked 9am by another doctor, who decides that your BG levels even though remain highish, would be considered to be out of danger etc, the doctor would have taken into consideration your probably alcohol level, using the reading from breathalyser, and it seems that because they didn't carry out a formal interview until 11am, that at this point you would still have some alcohol left in your system.. Which would make an correction dose without food of some concern of pending hypo...
I think that as you were able to walk out the police station at 1.30pm, that at no point from your arrest that you were in any real danger... And that any assumption that any police officer made concerning your welfare could be considered as correct!
Except what's happened, and that you've going to lose your driving licence, and making claims against police officers failing in their duty of care, isn't going to change that fact!
I would also learn a lesson from this, just in case you ever get arrested again, arguing, kicking off, being rude, abusive or aggressive towards a police officer, either at the time of your arrest or while you are being held in custody will do you no good at all! Remaining polite and amicable at all times, will lead you being treated with understanding and respect!
