Another Sleeping Dispatcher Incident Emerges

CNN’s Nancy Grace ran a story today about the case of a Memphis (Tenn.) dispatcher who snored and apparently fell asleep during a 911 call. According to the story, the dispatcher and a supervisor were fired only after a local TV station requested a copy of the logging tape of the 911 call. Watch the CNN video here. Also view the original WDEF-TV report that sparked CNN’s report. According to that report, the 911 caller is actually a public safety dispatcher, too, who works for a different agency.
