Only in Texas - Not really funny, just wierd Phyxius: LAKE JACKSON, Texas
A 42-year-old Texas Gulf Coast woman is charged with criminally negligent homicide after her husband allegedly died from a sherry enema.
Police say Tammy Jean Warner administered the sherry to her 58-year-old husband, Michael Warner at their Lake Jackson home last May. She also allegedly burned his will.
A Brazoria County grand jury indicted the woman last week, and she turned herself in to authorities on Monday. She's free on 30-thousand dollars' bail.
Lake Jackson police detective Robert Turner says investigators believe Mrs. Warner administered at least two large bottles of sherry to her husband.
A toxicology report shows the husband had a blood-alcohol level of point-47 percent when he died. That's six times the legal standard for intoxication. Turner says a person drinking alcohol will usually pass out before getting a lethal dose.
Neighbors say the man had a history of alcoholism and was seriously ill with liver disease.
Well, that's one way to do it, I guess... ::)
