Trooper Daniel Martin v Maurice White

View Comments

Patricia Phillips of the Oklahoma Crime Examiner has posted up some great new news about Trooper Douche Bag Daniel Martin. He has been suspended FIVE WHOLE DAYS without pay!!!! Whoooopeee! You’ve gotta read the letter she has posted.

Martin Letter

Fox23.com also has news up that Mr. White is suing Trooper Martin. Dumb ass. Read the letter and head over to Patricia’s story to leave a comment. Tell her I sent ya! The letter is hard to believe. I will post up a comment or two in the morning!

FOX23 has new information in the case of the now infamous confrontation between an Oklahoma Highway Patrol trooper and a paramedic.

The paramedic, Maurice White has filed a civil lawsuit against Trooper Daniel Martin; accusing him of using “unreasonable force.”

Nearly two months later Trooper Daniel Martin remains on administrative leave.

The trooper pulled over the ambulance after he says the driver failed to yield to his cruiser, and he was upset, accusing the ambulance driver of “giving him the finger.”

He is seen grabbing Maurice White and putting his hand around his neck while a patient was screaming inside the ambulance.

The paramedic, upset that the Highway Patrol has taken no action against the trooper is now suing him for damages in excess of $10,000.

White’s attorney tells FOX23 “We just want a reckoning and accountability”.

Fox news reports Trooper Martin has offered an apology to the family of the woman who was inside the ambulance at the time.

Martin’s future with the highway patrol is still in question. His case, in the hands of the Chief of the Highway Patrol.

Or is it just one of his buddies from the OHP trying to cover his ass?

From the post: Daniel Martin, Oklahoma Highway Patrol Moron of the year

ANONYMOUS seems a bit miffed. And confused. We’ll examine his comments, and those of my dearest friend Rogue Medic in response. My comments will be italicized. You’re stupidity in bold.


First of all, you need to get an education. It is “seen” not scene. (2nd sentence)

If you are going to use quotes on one “word”, you need to use it on the other “word”.

Secondly, it DOES NOT violate OHP policy to have a passenger on board.

EVEN while responding code 3? What is the purpose of this passenger? What about the dangers of responding code 3 to this passenger? Did this passenger have a waiver on file with the OHP? I bet the citizens of the Great State of Oklahoma would disagree when it is their tax dollars paying the bill because some jackass killed his passenger while driving code 3.

Also you state that the officer pulled the ambulance over because he “felt insulted“..

I can only assume you meant to put a space where the period went. Maybe my EDUCATION failed me, but I doubt it.

No, the ambulance broke the law, that is the reason. (Trooper Martin also makes ref to the hand gesture on the video)

Hmm…. improper abbreviations, no period, and bad comma usage. Oh Snap! I did it too!

As we have all been taught from an early age, you do not ever get out of your vehicle when you are stopped by the police. Maybe years ago this was the norm, but not in recent memory. If the medic would have stayed in the ambulance and let the trooper deal with the driver this would have ended very quickly. But instead the medic gets out of the ambulance and slams the door shut. He bows up and tried to take charge. He was interfering with the trooper doing his job. Once you lay hands on an officer, you are bought and paid for.

How does “bowing” fit in here. Further, are you trying to imply that you can “buy” an African American? Sounds like it. How was this trooper doing his job? What duty to the people of the state of Oklahoma was he fulfilling by holding up the transport of a patient to the hospital.

It amazes me how ignorant some are.

I’m sorry, but if you are silly enough to try and come into MY blog and school ME, try and check for simple typos. Especially when you start out by pointing out mine.

I’ll let Rogue Medic finish you off:

Anonymous part I,

First of all, you need to get an education. It is “seen” not scene. (2nd sentence)

You go, girl! You educate him.
Secondly, it DOES NOT violate OHP policy to have a passenger on board.

Also you state that the officer pulled the ambulance over because he “felt insulted”..No, the ambulance broke the law, that is the reason. (Trooper Martin also makes ref to the hand gesture on the video)

Oh great educator, how does the ambulance break the law? According to Daniel Martin’s lawyer, Paul Franks did not pull over more slowly than the drivers of many other vehicles seen earlier in the video. These drivers are not dealing with multiple emergency radios, a passenger up front, a patient in the back, a loud diesel engine, and a box that blocks much more of the view to the rear. According to Daniel Martin’s lawyer, giving the finger to Daniel Martin is not probable cause.

As we have all been taught from an early age, you do not ever get out of your vehicle when you are stopped by the police.

You make a statement that you seem to want to prove your opinion, then you contradict yourself.

Maybe years ago this was the norm, but not in recent memory.

Which is it? We have all been taught this, or this is only in recent memory? Or is it not in recent memory?

If the medic would have stayed in the ambulance and let the trooper deal with the driver this would have ended very quickly.

Haven’t we all been taught that when a trooper pulls over an ambulance and finds out there is a patient on board, he should act as if he is a responsible individual and tell the driver he will meet them at the hospital? If only OHP had some sort of motto that pertained to this.

Not continuing the fraudulent traffic stop would be a quick end to the delay in patient care. We have no way of knowing how long Daniel Martin might have kept everybody there. Yet you claim to read minds.

How do we know that Daniel Martin would not have kept them there for hours? Because that is what he says after he was caught.

Daniel Martin never checked on the patient. He opened the rear doors, but only to lie to the patient. He told her she would be on the way to the hospital quickly. At the same time he was arranging to delay her transport even more by arresting the only person there authorized to take care of her. I guess the educators you describe do not care about sick or injured people. What if this had been the family member of a trooper?

But instead the medic gets out of the ambulance and slams the door shut. He bows up and tried to take charge.

Excellent example of the kind of writing you were so picky about, only worse.

Send him to the slammer for being a slammer. That’s the kind of get tough on slamming language we need. The medic is in charge of patient care. Daniel Martin cannot relieve the medic of that duty, no matter how loudly he throws a tantrum. n>

He was interfering with the trooper doing his job.

The trooper was interfering with EMS personnel doing their jobs. Any sensible trooper would have taken this up at the hospital or through appropriate channels. Not Daniel Martin.
Once you lay hands on an officer, you are bought and paid for.

Bought and paid for? What kind of juvenile statement is that? I guess the DA needs to be educated by a smarty pants like you. If only the DA would realize what an excellent educator is available to him.

It amazes me how ignorant some are.

Daniel Martin demonstrated profound ignorance, when he interfered with patient care. You are defending that ignorance. You should hope that you do not do something similarly stupid on camera. You criticize a minor mistake, but are guilty of many similar mistakes. You are a hypocrite.

Stop trying to give honest LEOs a bad reputation.

Trooper Martin’s lawyer said he either didn’t hear the paramedic say there was a patient in the ambulance, or the information “didn’t register”.”

Wtf. A LEO trained to handle high stress situations where he makes decisions to use deadly force didn’t hear Paramedic White state it over and over? Good job… Buddy.

Now the police dashboard version has been released, with Trooper Martin’s lawyer claiming it “vindicates a decorated war hero”.”

VINDICATES? It makes him look like a giant asshole. 4 star asshole, for that matter. I applaude Trooper Martin for his military service. I do not permit him to use his service as a get out of jail free card.

“Ultimately, Mr White was not arrested, as his county would have been left without a paramedic if he were taken off duty.”

NO. This is misleading. He wasn’t arrested because there was no valid charge. The act of arresting him would have left the county without a medic, but that was NOT the reason the district attorney advised him to not arrest. He advised him to not arrest because he realized he had already become part of a giant media disaster–which I intend to continue until Trooper Daniel “DIckhead’ Martin is removed from his position as Highway Patrolman with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.

Trooper Martin has proven that he is only in this for his ego and is unable to comprehend that their are other branches of public service. Because of this, Trooper Martin will always be remembered as the jackass who threw a temper tantrum because an ambulance driver hurt his feelings.

Rogue Medic pointed out this video. I’d like to point out a few discrepancies. Trooper Daniel Martin’s lawyer states the ambulance would have scene the trooper behind him for 24 seconds. I counted 14. Further, those who have been in an ambulance will be able to tell you just how great those mirrors are. Can you see anything directly behind you?

The lawyer doesn’t seem to understand that the issue is two fold… He pulled the ambulance over because he felt insulted. Because he had his ego stepped on(allegedly). The lawyer also doesn’t understand that this medic was pissed off because this was BS and he was interfering with patient care.

“he has a right to make a traffic stop on an ambulance that is not running code because it is NOTHING MORE THAN ANY OTHER VEHICLE”.

So because I don’t have my lights and sirens on(and I opt to not do so on many patients than are borderline critical, because I believe that lights and sirens can be more dangerous at times than running “not at code”) my patient is not important?!?!? Should I instead run with lights and sirens all of the time so that I have no fear of retribution from the police?

This lawyer proves how little he understands about EMS, and that Trooper Daniel Martin and the Oklahoma Highway Patrol only care about feeding their ego(all while violating OHP policy with a passenger on board) rather than cooperating and taking care of the citizens of the state of Oklahoma.

Back peddle. Back Peddle. Stop. Drop. and Roll. “If we allow people to get out of vehicles and try to handle the traffic stop other than drivers… that’s chaos”

While I try to keep a good relationship with LEOs, simply because I might need them one day… They should do the same. One day when Trooper Martin is calling out “ten-double zero, ten-zero zero! Officer DOWN!” Over his radio… who does he expect to come to plug the holes and save his life? I sure Hope it isn’t Paramedic White…

Oh, and for the record. Every EMT-B student even knows that sirens are effective to 55 mph. It is very possible that the ambulance crew would not hear the sirens inside the back of the ambulance until they were literally on their ass.

If you have been hiding under a rock up to this point, head over to STATter911 for a full update on this.

I only have one question. Why did the medic exit the ambulance right away when the dumb ass Oklahoma Highway Patrolman pulled up behind them?

Further, vengeance is a piss poor tool for LEO’s to use when deciding who to pull over. How many times does a cop have somone “fail to yield”? Does he freak out and pull every one over? How often do motorists Fail to yield to ambulances? I think we should be authorized to do the PIT manuver on vehicles that take longer than 3 seconds to yield.

An ego can be a dangerous thing.
