UnknownXxTHEOxX he was waiting for him to die .
Dispatchers are meant to keep asking questions while they're sending the ambulance (to keep contact with the caller). Most likely the ambulance had been sent. I'm not saying what he did was right, but the woman should've acted better to someone trying to help.
@@MultiChantal22 Her friend was literally on the verge of dying. You can't expect her to be rational at a moment like this. (In her mind ) He could have probably given her advice on how to buy time, but (again in her mind) he was just wasting time asking the same question that she literally just answered. A good operator would understand this and be a little more patient, but he let one little swear word get to him which in my opinion is the most petty thing you could possibly do when someone's life is on the line.
Luis CR you do realize that the quality of the girl talking is terrible and without the captions I don’t think anyone would be able to distinguish what she’s saying. Also,I agree she really should’ve been a bit more respectful to someone trying to help her.Also in an emergency you’re supposed to stay calm, you’re not supposed to be acting the way she was.
Luis CR and would you rather have him say nothing at all?
The dispatcher shouldn't just be fired from his job. He should be arrested.
Yes. He should go to prison. Acting like a little bitch, hanging up cuz chick got frustrated w him, all because he clearly didn't know how to do his job.. HES BARELY BREATHING.. what part of that did u not understand? Idiot.
Honestly whoever hired him should be looked at as well... how many other idiots did they hire to answer emergency calls?!..
Tyler Irons im with her this is bullshit the fucking guy hung up on her when he knows someone is in danger and because he was insulted while this woman is panicking and keeping a boy alive this is actually bullshit that guy should be in jail at the least
trigolis why did you have to turn it into a race thing?
+trigolis dont spread hate buddy
trigolis true XD yea I kinda agree
The fact that he's on administrative leave instead of going to jail or minimum being fired immediately is sickening
AGREED!! 😡🤬
Before I even watched the video I said to myself that he should be in jail.
He's probably related to whatever dem politician got him that job.
this was uploaded 8 years ago, would be nice to have an update but that dispatcher's life has probably moved on and hopefully this keeps them up at night
@@ixxxxxxx If that boy was still with us today, he would be 25 years old. It's sad to think about how this could've been avoided so easily. Shame on that dispatcher.
That is insane. The lady wasn't even trying to be rude, she was just frustrated having to repeat herself in a critical situation knowing her friend didn't have long left. If you can't handle that, definitely don't be a 911 dispatcher.
I agree. I didn’t find her rude at all. She was in a panicked state, and was acting pretty normal for this situation. Even if she was rude, it is on the operator to pay no mind to that and assist. The rudeness is not personal. People are at their worst in an emergency, we all are, so if a dispatcher cannot remain calm and be in “help/support” mode then they need to leave. I’ve seen people who take calls for the suicide hotline forget that that they’d re supposed to help de-escalate people who are in a highly emotional state. Bottom line is people need to be educated on their duties and what is expected of them because none of these situations are acceptable.
Seemed like a c*nt
@@tiahnarodriguez3809- She was definitely snappish/rude. It must’ve been a trigger for him to hang up. I wouldn’t have been like that but I’m not her, or him. The dispatcher will keep anyone calling on the line while they send out rescue personnel. Plus collecting info. Even if it means repeating yourself. *“How many fucking times do I have to tell you”.* A strange outburst like she’s ordering at fast food.
@@empyrean196 she blatantly told him he's barely breathing. then dispatcher says 'is he breathing?' she just told him, is the dispatcher deaf or just stupid
@@empyrean196 He definitely just didn't want to do his job.
Why get a job where you know people will be screaming and crying and cursing over the phone if you just hang up on them? What the hell?
ikr
Yeah, when he thinks that's offensive or negatively upsetting and hang up just like that, then he would've known first that it was normal that people tend to cuss when they're in panick. He's not even considered beyond an amateur dispatcher if he doesn't know that.
Romans 10:9
If you declare with your mouth,Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Such teaching is now "standard policy" in many private businesses and governmental agencies -- often tied to their precious "anti-harassment/anti-bullying" policies. I REALLY and truly HOPE that people actually read those damned things before they sign away their right to equality in the eyes of their employer.
If you agree that there are "special groups" worthy of "extra protection" you are tacitly admitting that it's OK for you to be treated as a lesser person unless you can somehow gain admission to one of these "protected groups". And good freakin' luck with that if your "immutable characteristics" (ie Group Identity) have already classified you as a justified "lesser" group.
Which is neo-Marxist Critical Group Theory, that Trump banned in the government but Harris/Biden cannot wait to bring back. (The fake news media framed it as "Trump canceling 'Sensitivity Training'").
@@Brichanise.Nicole Well at least YOU'RE not a 911 dispatcher.
"911, what is your emergency?'
"My son got a big gash and is bleeding fast from his leg, what do I do?"
"Pray with me."
"Hey lady don't cuss at me."
"Someone is dying!"
"Yeah well I'm more important than that dying kid, bye."

Wasnt even an insult, she was just mildly impolite due to her situation and he went fukin nuts about it.

"Why did you hang up?"
"She was mean to me :( "
there's no such thing as being an asshole out of "pure concern".
"God I was being an asshole out of pure concern. Hopefully that excuses me being an asshole"
She pushed someone to their breaking point and now she's partially responsible for her "friend" not getting the help he needed.
@@cornelialibritanniaprincess If you cannot handle high stress situations, pick being a stay at home husband or gardener instead. No need for incompetency in the workplace. Would you say the same thing if a doctor neglected to take care of a patient because she used the word "f*cking"? Disgusting that you're trying to pin this on the friend and not the useless, useless operator who was too busy throwing a hissy fit instead of doing his damn job.
@@pvtspringles I absolutely do place blame on the “friend” being disrespectful to literally her only choice for help.

The dispatcher is on administrative leave? Why has he not been fired? Why has he not been CHARGED? What he did was DESPICABLE, and it led to a man’s death. He should be CHARGED.
Absolutely yes!
Fire them
They should sue
@@charleynewman4783 where I'm from if you don't help someone whose life is in danger then you'll go to jail. When you witness an accident and start filming and refuse to call 911 when asked for help for example. At least here I'm sure the dispatcher would get a few years rightfully so. What he did is basically like a doctor in a hospital not helping a person that's been stabbed because he was asked to hurry. Should be at least 5 years jail time and a big fine idc if they get bankrupted.
@erikfassbender4754 In most situations, if someone's life is in danger, the best/only thing you should do as a "civilian" is call the appropriate services.
Recording is fine, evidence Is quite useful for legal situations. But of course, context and situation are more important.
If a person is beating their partner or child, I'd expect everyone to try take action even though I understand its difficult.
But if there is massive car accident or there is a gun or knife related crime, stay out of the way, and call the authorities ASAP.
A month go my husband had a massive heart attack at home and I experienced what it is like to call 911. The dispatcher was on the line with me the entire time as I administered CPR for 8 minutes until paramedics arrived. Despite everything, my husband did not make it. I later learned he had died instantly. If a dispatcher cannot handle the emotional roller coaster of an emergency caller, they need to seek another job. Trying to do CPR, talk to a dispatcher, answer questions, and make sure the front door is unlocked; while seeing your husband die in front of you is devastating. My pulse was at 179 bpm and my blood pressure so high I never heard the sirens or the paramedics entering the house. The reality of an emergency is that the caller’s world is shattered and they are just trying to hold it together. Everyone I dealt with that day was professional and courteous, from the dispatcher, to the paramedics, sheriff department and judge. No one should ever have a loved one die because a dispatcher is on a power trip. This dispatcher should be fired and charged with failure to render aid.
I'm so sorry about your husband. My condolences.
❤🤗I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m so happy you had the right people with you during this tragedy.
Im so sorry honey. You are so strong. I hope u are blessed ♡
I'm so sorry both for the loss of your husband and for the pain of those moments.
If he's that offended, as a fire/emergency dispatcher, by somebody saying Fuck, then he's probably in the wrong job.

This indirectly murder. Why would you do that to someone.
Truthfully it wouldn't have mattered either way, he was gonna die regardless. And the girl could have just called 911 again after this
HybridBlueDream He was gonna die anyway, seriously? Its that dispatcher’s duty to help in emergencies which is a priority to everything else including his feelings. This pisses me off
@@HybridBlueDream fuck off u heartless monster
You wouldn't say that if he's your brother
HybridBlueDream Okay so I know you’re right, but many humans have connections to other humans and emotions, it may be hard to understand, but just accept it. Just act like you do too, and as if you understand it, it might take a while to blend in, but you can do it.
@@abd6333 what he said it's correct though he still would of died but obviously the dispatcher should be fired
The dispatcher's name is Matthew Sanchez, formerly of the Albuquerque Fire Department. Was he fired and charged? *NO*. He was allowed to resign. He accepted a job a year later with the Bernalillo F.D., from which he was fired days after being hired. Then, he sued the BFD for, *get this*, wrongful termination! And he won(sort of) a settlement of $25,000. A figure this low, however, is considered a "nuisance settlement" and is paid just to get rid of the plaintiff. If anyone knows where he is now, please fill us in. I feel like there is no justice.
So the quick take away is, he's a POS person, in general, not just in this one tragic instance. Got it. 👍🏼
Truly frustrating.
Some dispatchers are absolutely useless.
Yes some dispatchers are in the wrong job
Why are you guys still commenting on this? It’s kinda the callers fault not the dispatcher.

This is infuriating, something similar happened to me, my mom was having a seizure and being the first time I watched that event I was in panic trying to follow the dispatcher's instructions but when I asked for an ambulance he said ''I dont have time to deal with your mom'' I was speechless and angry and helpless so I hung up on him. After 15 minutes he called me back and say if I wanted an ambulance and I finally snapped, he sent a police car instead 🙄 the police officer called the ambulance and they came quickly. Then I discovered my mom had a brain tumor, and she's recovering right now but I can't wrap my head around how some people have the audacity to work in such a job when they lack empathy.
Im so sorry for the boy 😥
I really hope you reported the dispatcher… because he really tried to backtrack

Another example, people get offended too quickly and easily. He felt that his feelings were more important than a life of a person.

@@jonasnielsen2914 yes, but your spelling is sicker
I remember my call to 911 after seeing two pit bulls run past my porch and attack a 3 month old baby who was in a child seat sitting on the porch next door. The screams of the grandmother will always be in my head. I was frantic and REALLY pissed off being asked the same question over & over. I could hear the dogs chewing on the baby, I was not about to go outside and "see what was going on" while I had my own infant inside, but was asked to. I remember being yelled at to calm down. Probably more than warranted as I was hysterical. But asking the same thing over and over just made me angry. I wish the operator had at least acknowledged that she knew I had already answered and had given me reassurance that help was on the way. That little bit would have gone a LONG way.
Did the baby live?
But they should give good feedback such “that is good” “we are coming” “is he still breathing” “check again for me if he is breathing”, “is he breathing NOW?” “Great”. They are stupid.
This guy pretty much said "you're being rude because you're stressed and your friend can die". He should be charged for murder.
They should charge the dispatcher for negligent homicide.
manslaughter at MINIMUM
We’ll see
Life in prison and throw away the key
Throw the book at that dispatcher
I don't know but you might be 5 years late
He didn't hear her the multiple times she said he's barely breathing but he heard the f word loud and clear the first time.
I've seen many videos here on RUclips from 911 calls and the dispatchers all seem not to pay very much attention to what people are telling them and keep asking the same question again and again. Sometimes really stupid and irrelevant questions that are not intended to help the person who needs immediate assistant (police, ambulance, etc.). I could never work as a dispatcher, because you need to be very calm and controlled to deal with the incoming calls and this guy loses his nerves after the first "F" word from someone in real exceptional circumstances? He is absolutely unqualified for this job!
@@RioMuc to be fair a lot of the time when they’re asking irrelevant or stupid questions it’s to keep the caller calm. Or if the caller is injured to give them something else to focus on to help them stay awake. Most of the time the 911 operator has already sent the cops/paramedics and is just trying to keep the person alert while they wait for them to arrive.
@@RioMuc you also ask for the location and you send someone before you keep asking a lot of question so you don't take valuable time
He was checking in on him to see if he was still breathing and she shouldn’t have treated him that way, but hanging up is disgusting
EDIT: if there are any more closed minded people out there that are about to respond, I am simply being open minded and looking at both sides. I know if my friend was dying, I know I would be upset, but if I was a 911 dispatcher, I would be upset too. But hanging up is pure evil and he should’ve told her to calm down or something.
@@the1b219 she didn’t have to “treat” him any special way when her friend is dying. He should have more decorum in life or death situations. Grow a pair.

@Thecarkid 11 If I told you I was going to murder someone, and you did nothing about it, you would get charged as if you actually committed the murder for aiding and abetting me because you kept what I told you a secret, so if that can get you a murder sentence, asking yourself “should I let this person live” and saying “no” definitely should count.

All because she swore at him? She did because he wasn't listening!
Technically, she wasn't listening. But I don't blame her. And dispatcher needs to keep better cool.
Why the hell would someone get a job as a dispatcher if they couldn’t handle someone in distress
The same reason anyone becomes a nurse assistant, a nurse, a doctor, a therapist. They think they can handle the stress that comes with the job, but they just can't. Then they end up acting out in a completely inappropriate and perhaps illegal way after months of compounded stress. I can almost guarantee that this outburst wasn't built up over one day, but over many incredibly stressful days and long hours. No one, I believe, becomes a 9-1-1 dispatcher because they want to be an asshole. Everyone has a breaking point. Maybe you would have done the same thing, if you had his day or year. You don't know until you're there. I'm not making excuses for him. What he did was unacceptable. But if you want to know why he likely did what he did, or why someone else might, that's probably why.

I don’t blame her for cussing like that
Yeah dispatcher sounded like one of those people that makes you do something that almost kills you and then turns around and says "yeah but did you die though? No just paralyzed for the rest of your life you'll be fine."
Close your eye's and listen again. You will realize that it is harder to understand what she is saying. So i could be that he didn't completely understand it atleast what she is saying after barely. So ge wasn't sure and asked it again.
(Note that you did read the text before so . Ut is easyer for you to undeestand it than for the man)
@@zorkija4376 True, however, he shouldn’t have just hung up. He should’ve told her to stay calm and that he’s trying to help.
@@mayafudgeshy5298 agreed. Getting offended because of an F word is no way near worth of losing somebody's life. That guy dispatcher is a pure douche that caused a teenager to lose his life. Hope he sleep well at night
@@zorkija4376 Oh yeah, he didn't understand the last words of a sentence, but he must've got the idea that the person she was talking about is in a very bad situation but thats less important bcz he thinks that he can refuse to serve like its some kind of private restaurant that he opened
How did he get a job as a 911 dispatcher in the first place?
Bloody ridiculous! Here in the UK this dispatcher would be behind bars for a long time, as its a felony
Woman: Swears because she’s stressed out
Dispatcher: That’s where I draw the line
"language, bye"
@Total Confusion stfu
@Total Confusion the point of a dispatcher is to do YOUR JOB AS ONE, you need PATIENCE, he clearly couldn't do that, and it caused someone their life. How dumb can you fucking be?
Mate, imagine you were in her shoes. Your best friend has just been shot, he’s on the ground, bleeding heavily and BARELY breathing and needs medical help, fast. You phone the police, no doubt your mind is in an absolute panic because at any moment you best friend could die. You tell the dispatcher what happened, you tell them, he is barely breathing, while at the same time trying to help your friend as he is slowly dying. At that moment every single seconds counts for your friend.
Only for the dispatcher to then ask once again “is he breathing?”
Of course You be frustrated at that especially when you already told him he’s BARELY breathing. no one is going to be calm during this situation, of course they are going to swear there. Especially when there friend is dying after being shot!
This isn’t dealing with a Karen at McDonald’s. this is a life and death situation here, where the people are depending on the dispatcher to get the help they desperately need.
Now the dispatcher should then ask. “Where is the Location.”
“Where about are you”
Or at least try to support and try calm her and her friend until medical help arrive.
But instead the dispatcher did the most immoral and selfish thing possible. He hangs up and left that poor boy to die in his friends arms.
Why?...because he was feeling stress out when a panic, scared girl yelled at him after her friend was just shot...
@Total Confusion Oh my god you're so "badass" with a line like that? Keep it short like the guys life? So "cool" shut your little bitch ass up, probably some 8 year old who thinks it's funny to make fun of people dying, get a fucking life idiot

@@0banai_Igur0 ikr, they even blamed the girl for letting her friend die by not being polite, like, do they not know how panic works?
This is so sad, the girl was trying so hard & was doing a great job for her friend.
“I’m not going to deal with this, okay?” That’s literally your job to calm down the situation and work with the caller so you can further communicate.
@Brazilian WavEment well, if someone was dying, and instead of asking the same question 3 times, you send help, that would be useful. It might be frustrating to work as a dispatcher but the woman who was having a usual day and came to a point where he has a boy dying infront of him and a dispatcher who asks the same question again and again is in wayy more stress, not to forget that a life is on the line too
@Brazilian WavEment True, so many jobs being taken by people that rather get paid then work. While the younger generation is struggling to get jobs to support themselves.
@@preen9212 He clearly wasn’t stressed out. He just didn’t want to work out the situation. This girl is having her friend die in front of her. Is the girl at blame for “panicking”. The dispatcher is trained to work with their caller until the medics come. I understand they’re at work day and night but that doesn’t give you the right to just leave someone to care for their dying friend.
@@Munchael05 so? did i say the opposite?
@@preen9212 honestly, I was either tripping or you’re all over the place. I wasn’t sure if you were against my opinion or not.
_Its like saying “Just stop being sick” to a person who has cancer._
(Edit: Why are there likes on this? w h y?)
or saying "stop acting dead" to a dead person
“If you’re homeless... just... buy a house”
i know this is wrong but i laughed at this
“you see someone having a seizure? just tell them to stop having a seizure.” like wtf this dispatcher triggered me so much, how did they even get hired in the first place
Or stop being suicidal *to a suicidal person*
Regardless of her swearing, he should have consulted the mam whose friend was dying on what to do in order to help and save her friend.
Someone's curse words or insults may hurt you, but as long as you are a 911 dispatcher, you gotta be ready,calm and cool for any situation.
She was saying that under panic and mental pressure. Even though she meant it, it doesn't deny the responsibility of consulting, helping and saving people. People are different. They are not the same. Very sad to see this.
He should be charged for murder. Not just fired...
Imagine how the caller felt. Just seeing that her friend is dying. With nobody's help.
And they're kids at that!
Its her fault
It was her fault cus she couldve called again
She should go to jail cus it was her fault the guy died
Shes such a 3/tch the dispatcher was just trying to help
The dispatchers name is Matthew Sanchez. The parents later sued him in 2017. He got hired as a dispatcher in another county but got fired literally 3 days later. thank me later 😕
Do you know why he got fired again?
Brianna Stachowiak i have no idea but i feel like they might of found out about his past
he got fired, sued the county and received a $25,000 settlement!!! WTF!! 🤬 this man needs to be in JAIL! I was so sad to read the update story.
Do you know what happened as a result of the parents' lawsuit against him?
Something similar happened here in Hamilton, Ontario last year. A man was shot, and when the EMTs showed up at the scene, they refused to believe that he had been shot, despite all the witnesses at the scene telling them that he had been. They told him to walk to the ambulance himself, and accused him of pretending to be more hurt than he was when he was unable to do so. It took them so long to finally take him to the hospital that he died. The case is still pending, but the EMTs were criminally charged.
Terri MacKay damn! i’ve never heard about that story, but to answer your question, no. i have not heard anything further about the parents lawsuit yet.
She really did answer his question directly. And if that wasn't enough, he had heard several seconds of her coaching him through the next breath. How can that possibly need clarification?
Former dispatcher: "This guy keeps trying to grab my a## in the shower."
Prison Guard: "Deal with it yourself."
being fired is not enough, that dispatcher must face consequences
He actually sued the county for firing him and got $25,000

God Jesus The Holy Spirit love you and be with you forevermore amen God bless amen :) :)
When you see someone you love dying, you won't be calm. You'll swear, you'll cry, you'll shout and you'll feel like nothing is right. But damn that 911 operator should go to jail for negligence resulting in death. He really left that girl alone in the worst day of her life.
I agree, he should go to jail
Thankfully the victim’s parents did sue, and got $25,000 out of it. The dispatcher got his license revoked and is no longer eligible to work as a dispatcher ever again. Sadly he didn’t go to jail.
really well said. i was looking for a comment like this
i try to stay calm ( and i had succeded) , usually nothing good comes from getting emotional in a moment of emergency
You're a lousy excuse for a friend if you can't get to the point ASAP for help to arrive as quickly as possible. Fall apart when the friend is out of danger ! !
He should be prosecuted. There must be a law for something like this. If there isn't there should be.
Being a dispatcher is a vey hard job, but taking offense to someone who is in fear and distress and telling them to deal with it themselves??? F No!! Disgusting

@@auntjenifer7774 Legit no one gives a fuck
It's a disgrace but to be honest it does sound like poor training or a poor system is partly to blame. It sounds like he's following some sort of script on his computer that only has the options "yes" or "no", not anything in-between. I'd imagine that's why he asks the question multiple times, because he can't get to the next step in the system without the caller definitively giving one of these 2 answers. When she won't give one he throws his toys out of the pram.
