State Returns License to Fired Dallas Paramedic Brad Cox, Who Kicked Mentally Ill Man in Face
As the state continues its investigation into Brad Cox, the former paramedic who was filmed kicking a mentally ill man in Dallas, the Department of State Health Services has decided that he can continue working.
