In an incident caught on camera Saturday, a Houston hospital’s intensive care unit (ICU) nurse told a police officer that, if they ever came into her hospital, she’d let him and all his family members die - because "You're not that great a person."
Crystal Tadlock, a 35 year-old nurse at Memorial Hermann Greater Heights Hospital, was in the back of a police car and under arrest when she made the threat:
"I'm a (expletive) nurse, and when you come through my hospital, don't worry, I'll let you die."
"All your family members," Tadlock adds in the video.
Asked if she was serious, Tadlock replied, "Well, yeah" and explained her reason:
"I mean, you're not that great of a person. You think you can just treat me like this?"
When she was pulled over for speeding early Saturday morning, Tadlock failed a field sobriety test, Houston ABC affiliate KTRK reports. She was charged with DWI. Memorial Hermann Greater Heights Hospital has issued a statement saying that, after an investigation of the incident, it has fired Tadlock.
