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.

Perhaps, but in this case, the beverage was used improperly, and Sherry was his Worst Enema.

“Charges dropped in sherry enema death case”
There should be a FR Rubbernecking Award. You know, for a story title that just forces you to slow down and read its article, no matter how much awfulness it portends.

How’d they get a mug shot of him if he’s dead? Oh, and she looks like she’s the one getting the enema (or drunk)

Prior to administering the enema, did she say “bottoms up”?

Did she use a bottle like that for the enema? Wow. That’s gotta leave a mark. Do you screw it it?

Sherry is roughly 17% ethanol...It would take about 1600mls to get a level of >400

One of the old docs that was getting senile when I went into nursing used to order Milk and Molasses enemas.

He should have opted for the Pina Colonic instead. You owe me a monitor. Pay up.
