Remember those a*s clowns who let Eutisha Rennix die at a sandwich shop this past weekend?? Hopefully they will soon be fired and facing criminal charges:

Two EMTs accused of callously refusing to help a dying, pregnant mom during their coffee break became the target of a criminal probe by the Brooklyn DA’s Office yesterday — as the FDNY moved to fire them.

Prosecutors met to determine whether EMTs Jason Green, 32, and Melisa Jackson, 23 — who sources said are romantically involved — had a legal duty to aid Eutisha Rennix, 25.

The criminal investigation began as the Fire Department suspended Green and Jackson without pay for allegedly ignoring the frantic pleas of Rennix’s co-workers to help her after she suffered a seizure Dec. 9 at the Au Bon Pain shop in 1 Metrotech Center in Brooklyn. That’s the site of FDNY headquarters and where the pair work as dispatchers. Rennix, who had a 3-year-old son, died at Long Island College Hospital after being transported there by a paramedic crew. Her premature baby was delivered at the hospital but died two hours later.

Sources said the FDNY wants to boot Green, a six-year veteran, and Jackson, who has four years with the department, over the debacle, a story that The Post broke Sunday. But two are fighting back, unleashing a union rep to defend them yesterday. “These are people that are not in the field,” EMS union exec Jeff Samerson said. “They have not had patient contact in years.” Still, even Samerson had to concede, “they could have acted better.”Fire Department officials have already referred the case to the state Health Department, which could revoke the EMTs’ certification.
