Overdose

VIDEO – PLAYING DEAD –

Jan, 11, 2024 –  Disturbing bodycam footage shows a man’s final moments suffering from an overdose at a hospital before a doctor handed him off to police and suggested they bring him to a bus stop before he later died. A hospital security guard asked for police at 9:45 p.m. to remove man from the emergency department for “being difficult” and refusing to leave. Police reported seeing him “groaning and drooling” and appearing incapacitated.

Footage released by the Milwaukie Police Department shows Descamp slumped in a hotel chair with scabs and sores covering his legs, the Daily Mail reported.

“There is no medical reason for him to be here anymore, and it’s all behavioral,” one staff member can be heard telling officers, according to the clip.

An emergency department physician said DesCamps was “playing possum” and that “the officers should just drop him off at a bus stop,” the DA’s memo said.
