Ex-911 Operator Crenshanda Williams Gets Probation for Hanging up on Thousands of Callers

Ewan Palmer,Newsweek 7 hours ago

A former 911 operator in Houston who hung up on thousands of people contacting emergency services has been sentenced.
Crenshanda Williams, 44, was found guilty on Wednesday following a trial in Harris County of interference with emergency telephone calls after repeatedly hanging up the phone while working at the Houston Emergency Center (HEC) before she was caught and fired in August 2016, reports Click2Houston.
Suspicions were raised when an audit of 911 calls to the HEC noticed a high volume of “short calls”—lasting less than 20 seconds—which were taken by Williams.

According to prosecutors, documents from the review revealed thousands of short calls were attributed to Williams hanging up between October 2015 and March 2016, reports KTRK-TV.
One emergency caller, Jim Moten, rang 911 in 2016 to say he spotted two cars speeding on a highway where two people had recently been killed, only to be hung up on by Williams. Before hanging up, Williams is reported to have told Moten: "Ain't nobody got time for this. For real."

Other 911 short calls to Williams included reports of robberies and homicides. According to Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg, Williams said she hung up on the callers as she “did not want to talk to anyone at those times,” reports Click2Houston.
Following a three-day trial, a judge has now sentenced Williams to 18 months’ probation, and 10 days in jail as a condition.
“The citizens of Harris County rely on 911 operators to dispatch help in their time of need," Assistant District Attorney Lauren Reeder said in a statement. "When a public servant betrays the community's trust and breaks the law, we have a responsibility to hold them criminally accountable."

At the time, the HEC said the high volume of short calls from Williams were an “anomaly” rather than an issue with the center, reports the Houston Chronicle.
“This is just a very significant event,” HEC Manager Joe Laud said at the time. “And we feel that her actions do not represent all the call takers in this facility or call takers in general. They have a very specific interest in doing a great job in providing emergency response to people.”

You WILL be asked to leave.

You will NOT take a table from a paying customer.



That is called LOITERING.

Snowflake

Snowflake

A term for someone that thinks they are unique and special, but really are not. It gained popularity after the movie "Fight Club" from the quote “You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else."

Began being used extensively as a putdown for someone, usually on the political left, who is easily offended or felt they needed a "safe space" away from the harsh realities of the world, but now has morphed into a general putdown for anyone that complains about any subject.

Comedians have a hard time performing on college campuses anymore because of all the little snowflakes running around that get offended by just about anything they say

I am going to ask a question because I really want to know......

When you say something and another person gets upset and tells everyone to boycott you on twitter..... Why does that matter?


If you really believe what you said............. why would you want those that are boycotting........ to follow you anyway?


Social media is getting out of control, why are these people boycotting just because ONE person told them too? Sounds "cult-ish" to me.


I have my OWN MIND... I don't need a young child telling me to do something, and you shouldn't either. Makes YOU look very weak. 



Protesting just to protest. Some don't even know why they are protesting. 


Plus, you probably have never met most of the people on your own twitter. You only know what they are telling you.... (doesn't mean it's the truth lol)
