Every now and then, somebody (usually in Florida) calls 911 for the wrong reason. Sometimes it’s a young lady calling because she is hornier than shit and looking for a quick bang sesh. Other times, it’s a meathead calling to let the dispatcher know that his biceps are out of this world. Hell, I’ve even heard of one guy calling 911 two times because his cab driver wouldn’t drop him off at a casino.
And let’s not forget about the woman who called 911 to complain about her drug dealer.
But 99.9 percent of the calls coming into a 911 dispatch center are true emergencies, and as an operator, that’s something that has to be front and center when it comes to dealing with the situation.
Well, it turns out 43-year-old Crenshanda Williams either didn’t get that memo, or she’s just a huge bitch because she allegedly “hung up on thousands of calls between October 2015 and March 2016 alone.” At least one of those hangups resulted in one death, as a witness at a gas station robbery had to call in twice to get help, and by the time police arrived, one person had been shot and killed.
This 911 Operator Repeatedly Hung Up On Emergency Calls Because ‘Ain’t Nobody Got Time For This’
Then there’s this:
“On March 13, a security guard called 911 to report two motorists driving recklessly at high speed as they raced each other on I-45 South. Again, police say, Williams was the 911 operator. The call was terminated before the guard could fully state his name.
In describing a recording of the call, investigators say Williams remained on the line after terminating the call and can be heard to say, ‘Ain’t nobody got time for this. For real.'”
The reason for all the hangups? You guessed it: “Williams very simply told police that ‘she often hangs up on calls that have not been connected because she did not want to talk to anyone at that time.'”
And that’s just awful.
