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

Posted on 10/03/2007 2:26:50 PM PDT by cajunman

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 it's all a misunderstanding. He said "This BUD'S For You." She misheard that, and also his exclamation "It's Killer Time!"

Truly inspired. You have a special gift.

It occurs to me that such a thing would be really, really cold. Yikes.

I wonder if there’s a 12-step program for enemaholics? Step 1: We admitted we were powerless over enemas and that our lives had become unmanageable. How could anyone read that and keep a straight face?

Okay, a colleague had a patient show up in the ER back in the 80’s when the “coffee enema” was being touted as a holistic health aid. This Bozo read about it somewhere and decided to try it ( without checking out the details). So the guy dissolves an ENTIRE jar of freeze dried coffee in a quart of water and gives himself the enema.

Shows up in the ER an hour later, shaky sweaty and with a pulse rate of nearly 200 from his freakin massive caffiene OD.
Spent several days in the ICU but lived.

One way to beat a breathalyzer.

It would still show up on a breathalyzer. Well, not after he's dead.
