Brian Smith says he raised concerns about addresses being flagged as
dangerous for first responders based on potentially erroneous
information
By Daniel Beekman
SEATTLE —A former manager at Seattle's 911 call center says he was
wrongly punished for speaking up about problems at work, including a
practice that remains in use more than a year after allegedly leading
to a man's heart attack death.
Brian Smith says he raised concerns about certain addresses being
flagged as dangerous for first responders based on potentially
erroneous information about residents — and did so before the practice
caused medics to wait for a police escort and needlessly delay
treating heart attack victim William Yurek.
