They aren't going to let him die on their watch....induced coma they can feed him intravenously.

Unless he’s fasting from water too. No water will cause death much sooner; although in a coma after three days sounds very unlikely unless he was extremely malnourished already.

My guess is that he would have resisted an IV drip, so they had to put him out in order to rehydrate him. My guess is there is a difference between sedating and inducing a coma. YMMV.

If this is how it went down then they got some real problems. You don’t induce a coma except in very extreme circumstances, and I don’t think three days of fasting qualifies.

awww, I am torn, pump some fluids into him and force him to live, or just let him go.....justice either way, cheaper to let him go.....such a dilemma.

If he also denied himself water over those same three days, then maybe.

So you can stick a tube down his throat and feed him and hydrate him without him fighting or causing trauma. Now why the state of Texas should want to incur the expense, boggles the mind!

If a convict wants to starve them self to death, I don't see a problem here.

There are a lot of variables.
Typically when a person fasts, or someone goes on a hunger strike, they continue to ingest fluids.
Three days without hydration is very dangerous, three days without nutrition usually isn't.
If they can induce a coma against his will then I would think they could also insert an IV against his will.
And he IS going to die on their watch, it's just a question of when.

Why would you give drugs to a person who is in a weakened state? Good question. Almost like an "assisted suicide".

Just heard on local radio that he was hospitalized in Tyler due to this “hunger strike”. Wrong place for him to get much sympathy.
Turn him back into General Population, hunger will be the least of his worries.

That crazy supporter of Ron Paul, Robert Morrow calls Jeffs' "family" a peace loving, homeschooling family.
Morrow said the WORST thing Perry ever did was to prosecute Jeffs.
We need no better reason to support Perry than this.

“source close to Jeffs” pretty much means this is crap
