LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Two medics who mistakenly declared a woman dead who was alive will not appeal the suspension of their licenses, according to The Associated Press.
Little Rock paramedics Brandi Johnson and Pat Bajorek are serving 34-day suspensions given to them by the state Health Department, according to reports.
Both Johnson and Bajorek declared Pamela Harper dead while leading two separate ambulance crews when she was found in the yard of a Little Rock home.
However, a detective noticed she was breathing, which was later confirmed by the coroner. She was taken to a hospital but later died.
An autopsy found the cause of her death to be due to a drug and alcohol overdose. Allegedly, earlier care would not have saved her, according to the article.
