Wow. This one’s just amazing. A woman in Houston was indicted for criminally negligent homicide for the death of her husband….. um, by delivering an enema consisting of sherry. The detective on the case indicated that she delivered the equivalent of two 1.5 liter bottles of sherry up her husband’s poop shoot.

Warner, 58, was said to have an alcohol problem and received the wine enema because a throat ailment left him unable to drink the sherry, Turner told the newspaper.

Okay folks, can we all just agree here: if your drinking problem is so out of control that you *need* to have your wife feed you wine up your ass, it’s time to take a look at the bigger picture and maybe figure out what went wrong in your life and how to fix it.

“I heard of this kind of thing in mortuary school in 1970, but this is the first time I’ve ever heard of someone actually doing it,” said Turner, who led the lengthy investigation in the case.

Man, the kind of shit you must learn in mortuary school… God.

The woman admitted administering the enema, but denied causing her husband’s death, the Chronicle said.

That’s like that line in Collateral, which I just saw the other day (and which was awesome), where when accused of killing this fat Latino guy, Tom Cruise replies, “No, I just shot him. The bullets and the fall killed him.”

Wikipedia also has the following interesting item to add to all this:

Ritual enemas were practiced by the Maya and many other Central American and South American Indian tribes; some tribes have continued the practice to the present day. Substances used in the enemas include alcohol, tobacco, peyote, and hallucinogenic drugs. While the precise nature of the substances used by the Maya are unknown except from pictures of pots bubbling liquids, it is presumed these contained alcohol or other drugs.
