"According to the RATs, food deprivation is considered torture. So the state will provide food regardless of family."Tell Terry Schiavo.

Terri came to my mind immediately when I read that comment!If the person has a scumbag husband demanding that his wife be starved to death, the state is all for it.

Her family won't carry the body. They'll just stand back and b1tch about whatever anyone else does for them.
It's the same old same old -- the government has to help resolve a problem for someone, then get cast as the bad guy because it wasn't 'sensitive', or 'sufficient', or some other such nonsense.
How about if the coroner just stands back and says, 'Sorry, we don't have the equipment to take care of someone that size. Bring the body to the mortuary and we'll meet you there.'

The “outraged relatives” were the ones who shopped for the food, ordered the food, prepared the food, PUT THE FOOD IN FRONT OF HER...they should be charged with ABUSE.
SORRY, NO SYMPATHY FROM ME.

Can’t pay funeral expenses but can afford the massive amount of food consumed.

The only ones I feel sorry for are the people who have to come & deal with the aftermath.

I really don't understand why anyone would go through the trouble of posting the entire lyrics to a song and not list the title and artist...?

It’s sad. And its going to be real hard on the pall bearers
They were going to use a fork lift.

Great photo of a mortician doing his thing here. Now he can use the oversize casket.

The boyfriend was outraged over how her body was handled after her death?
And he has no paycheck and can’t pay for the funeral or anything.
He was probably living off her disability, ADC, Housing allowance, etc. No wonder he expects someone else to take care of her after death.

The pallbearers will probably be a fork lift.

No matter what anyone says, her relatives killed her. She was unable to get out of bed so someone had to bring her the food. Is this any different than bringing an alcoholic a gallon of vodka every time they asked for it?

Unless you’re someone like Terri Shaivo ... then being starved is “euphoric”.
To: Chet 99
How in the heck did they carry her out? She weighed about as much as a 6’ grand piano.

It makes you wonder how someone comes to this but I saw someone who was on her way last week. I was in the waiting room at a vet clinic and every time the 19 year old receptionist came back to the front desk she had a new chocolate bon bon in her hand and she popped it into her mouth. I waited about 15 minutes and in that time she probably had 6 chocolates. She was no more than 5 feet tall and easily weighed 180 pounds or more.
