Charges dropped in sherry enema death case
Houston Chronicle ^ | Oct 3rd, 2007 | Richard Stewart

Prosecutors have dropped charges that a Lake Jackson woman caused her husband's death by giving him a sherry enema, leading to alcohol poisoning.

Tammy Jean Warner, 45, now of Texas City, had been scheduled to go on trial next Monday on a charge of negligent homicide. It was the sixth trial date set for the case.

Court records state that the case was dismissed Aug. 31 due to insufficient evidence.

Warner's husband, Michael Warner, a 58-year-old machine shop operator, died at their Lake Jackson home on May 21, 2004. An autopsy report said he had been administered an enema with enough sherry to get a blood alcohol level of 0.47 percent. That is almost six times the level that can lead to a driving while intoxicated charge.

Warner told the Houston Chronicle that her husband had been addicted to enemas since he was a child. She said he often used alcohol in that manner to get drunk.

Neither Warner's attorney nor Brazoria County District Attorney Jeri Yenne could be reached for comment.

I think being the person administering a 58 year old man an enema is itself punishment enough for almost any crime.

Negative. If it’s in your blood, it’s in your breath.

“addicted to enemas”: someone is missing out on a great band name.

Once a drunk reaches the point where he or she pukes everything up, it’s the only way to get drunk, other than direct injection. Of course, should the wife really be charged with murder? Is there such a crime as being an extreme enabler? That would be more appropriate.

He should have opted for the Pina Colonic instead.

“He should have tried Texas Pete.”

Reminds me of the guy who was going through a nasty divorce and spiked his wife’s vibrator with a fresh cayenne pepper.
