back room.
.
.you know.
.
.where she can be.
.
.you know... away from all -the hoo ha of the Emergency Room and
get upset. The last thing she needs right now is... you know.. .to..
.
to get upset about being in a hospital setting”. So he goes “That’s okay, I’ll take care of
|
|
|
it”.
|
|
Det.
|
Sudler:
|
Was there any discussion of meningitis at that point?
|
|
Johnson:
|
|
No.
.
.no.
.
.she didn’t look that sick.
|
|
Det.
|
Sudler:
|
Okay. Where did that come into..
.
into play.
.
.that
|
|
|
|
meningitis was possible suspect?
|
|
Johnson:

|
Well, I was trying to find some explanation for how
|
|
|
|
she could have gone downhill so fast.. .1 mean.
. .1
was
|
|
|
|
like shocked.. .1 was just “What?”.. .you know.. .how...
|
|
|
|
how could this have happened. So.. .1 mean.
. .

-county. And I thought’ oh no.
.
.this is.. .is this what

|
|
|
we’re -looking at here.
|
|
Det.
|
Sudler:
|
Yeah. From what I understand, it does move pretty

Johnson:
