It sounds like Yantis was totally incapacitated yet they evidently neither attempted aid themselves, or tried to get paramedics to. Nor did they allow his family to aid him. That's what the story is thus far.


That's right..Each of the deputies were required to have a first aid card that included CPR certification!
