rescued, and who could very easily have caused the death of the officers. [ applause ] when garrett couples climbs up from the shore, the crowd gives him and steven lloyd a round of applause for the choices they made that day. but while the onlookers are impressed by what garrett couples did do, he can only think about the fact that a man lost his life and wonders what else could have been done. i think it came down to lack of training, no protocol, and no plan of action. i don t think i ll ever truly accept the fact that i did everything i could, because i m always going to look back on it and say, you know, was there something different i could have done. coming up a routine traffic stop. escalates fast. you re going to tase a 72-year-old woman?
now finally, help is on the way. but it s not a policeman or fireman. like garrett, it s just another person who was out in the park that day. when he went under water, the clock s ticking instantly. and that s why i went in the water. steven lloyd is a 46-year-old registered nurse, but unlike garrett couples he s not a lifeguard. in fact, steven lloyd says he hasn t been swimming in ten years. he s trying to do something. i just asked him, do you have any training? i gulped some water and said i m exhausted. i said, okay, well grab him under his arm and we re going to tow him to shore. it s been more than four minutes now since matthew buford went under when garrett couples reaches the shore. but if he expects help to be waiting, he s in for another surprise. come on. come on. get him over. i expected them to have everything possible to save this
