> The police chased the victim instead of the perpetrator believing the hospital despite the hospital's obvious lies. They were told it was a medical emergency, and they had no information to contradict that. (Yes, obviously the parents said it wasn't, but the parents aren't trained medical professionals). Once they got conflicting information, they could back out of the matter—and did so.
