That's called poisoning the well--attributing fame motives to honest rescue workers just doin their job. You will resort to anything to deny the obvious won't you?
How do you know they are honest?
What? Because they are police officers, they are automatically honest while doing their job? No one is perfect, MR. Some rescue workers even take selfies at
accident scenes. Then they post them on twitter. You know, for those few seconds of fame. A paramedic in Russia
took selfies with dying patients and posted them online.
So why do you think these officers are any different?
Oh, and the story of what they heard changed,
by the way..
“We could see a person in the front seat and then we heard a voice saying, ‘Help me, we’re in here.’ It was clear as day,” said Officer Tyler Beddoes of the Spanish Fork Police Department, one of four men who pulled an unconscious 18-month-old from a car — which had been submerged in near-freezing water for 14 hours — as her mother lay dead in the driver’s seat.
Amazing what came out of that chat all four of them had..
And finally,
the video of the whole rescue, as they stabilised the car to see who was inside, and then their panic and realisation when they realised there was someone inside, does not mention anything about anyone hearing anything. And the video is from one of the rescuers who arrived there when the car was still upside down and submerged, and then they tip the car up onto its side to check inside and then they all start screaming in panic when they realised there was a baby inside and they start calling out because there were no signs of life from the baby and it wasn't until they pulled her out that they realised she may have been alive. At no time did anyone even mention hearing anything through that whole video.
But their account to the papers was quite different..
Beddoes and his fellow first responders braved the chilly waters long enough to turn the red Dodge sedan, which was upside down, and pull little Lily Groesbeck out of her car seat, in which she had been suspended since her mother Jennifer Groesbeck apparently lost control of the car the previous evening.
“We could see her eyes fluttering so there was some life but as far as movements or consciousness there was nothing that we could see,” Beddoes told the Daily News on Monday.
The video that was filmed by the first rescuers on the scene clearly shows the police and the firemen calling to each other about how there were no signs of life and then you clearly see them pull her out of the car and they realise she is alive and they start screaming up the embankment for someone to give them a blanket as they bolted for the ambulance.
Considering that those
first responder's had to be treated for hypothermia afterwards, because they were standing in that water for too long getting her out, I would take what they believe they heard and then talked about before telling the media what they heard, with a large grain of salt. Actually, make it an ocean's worth of salt.
Do you want to know why?
Hypothermia can cause hallucinations and delirium.
If you still believe they heard voices from beyond..
I have a bridge if you want to buy it.
