Dayna Kempson Schacht Death Video Denounced by Parents - Video

A video of dead Dayna Kempson-Schacht recorded after her car crash is prompting outrage. The “death video” of Dayna Kempson-Schacht, a mother of two, was recorded by her ex-brother in law, a Georgia firefighter. On the Today Show Tuesday, Dayna Kempson-Schacht’s parents called for changes to law enforcement policies.

Dayna Kempson-Schacht had crashed her SUV July 17. She immediately perished. The 23 year old’s ex-brother-in-law was dispatched to the crash scene. He immediately pulled out his cellphone and began recording a video of Dayna. That is where the problem began, says Dayna’s father. Dayna Kempson-Schacht’s parents claim that legislation should be enacted barring law enforcement from carrying personal cellphones on the job. They claim that, by having access to personal digital devices, police can digress from the call to duty and engaged in misconduct. “Any responder on any scene at any time who’s allowed to have his cell phone could take these videos.”

The Spalding County Sheriff’s office has yet to conclude its investigation. But it confirms the video was recorded by a personal cellphone.

The firefighter’s antics didn’t end there. He later took the cell to a local bar and replayed the video for drunk patrons. Not yet complete, the firefighter started texting the video to others. It remains unclear who uploaded the video online. And despite logic, the firefighter once called to the scene never attempted to rescue the deceased Dayna. He simply stood there and recorded her.

    You can't rescue someone who is obviously deceased.
