Thor, I guess that you must know the woman personally, given that the article states that it was the son-in-law that commented on the possibility of suing. As has been pointed out this is a woman who has lost her father and grief is a powerful emotion. There's no suggestion from what I've read that this paitent assaulted or attempted to assault the crew, just that he became aggitated and combative when they tried to put him in the vehicle. Did they do anything wrong? Not from what I've read but this bloke just got pissed up and then got stroppy at being put in a vehicle, hardly worthy of his own death, let alone the abuse he's getting here. If you're looking for someone to blame then look no further than the solicitor who tells the family they have a case, they're the real leaches on society. DSO
