If she’s having a medical emergency, is she capable of supervising the prisoners? Seems to me like they were unsupervised whether she was there or not.
Exactly. Swap out the pregnant woman having pains with a man having a possible heart attack. Saying “sorry, but you can’t leave for to go to the hospital for at least 2 hours” would be a massive violation of that worker’s civil rights and would open the employer to a huge lawsuit.
Of course, the added “fetus’ rights” element just exposes the hypocrisy of the Texas government. When it benefits them, every fetus is a full blown person and doing anything that could hurt said fetus is murder. However, when it doesn’t benefit them, then the fetus has no rights and contributing to its death should have no legal repercussions whatsoever.
They don’t actually give a shit as long as there is an ass in a chair and a stamp in the logs. Unless something goes wrong, then it would have been her fault.
Yeah. This struck me as depraved and insane that an employee could not leave work for more than 2 hours for medical reasons. How completely bozotic.
Probably so understaffed to cut costs that her leaving would leave the prisoners unsupervised. Mammon rejoices.

Aka literally any security, police, EMS, or really any first responder work.
Too fucking right.
