In 2012, the 35-year-old Brooklyn woman's hands and feet had to be amputated after a hospital sent her home with a diagnosis of kidney stones and FDNY medics refused to take her back to the emergency room the following day. By the time she returned to Brooklyn Hospital Center, she had developed a sepsis infection and gangrene spread to her extremities. In a settlement, Mullings was awarded a whopping $17.9 million — $9.4 million from Brooklyn Hospital Center and $8.5 million from the city.
