Exactly what offenses should she have been charged with? Protecting her patient from illegal search and seizure? Telling a bully "no"? Resisting being manhandled when she did her job? At what point do we fear authority rather than making certain it is kept in check? As a conservative I am aghast that some on the right here think this was in any way something she should have allowed, and I respect her for standing her ground. Imagine the consequences if no one did? Why, you outlined them yourself. People could be unjustly imprisoned for protecting the rights of others. To that even I say "Resist".
