Yahoo! News - Wife Of Man Killed By Sherry Enema Surrenders A Lake Jackson woman charged with killing her husband by using a sherry enema surrendered to police Monday.
Tammy Jean Warner, 42, turned herself into police Monday on a charge of criminal negligent homicide connected to her 58-year-old husband's May 2003 death.
Investigators said she gave her husband, Michael Warner, a sherry enema even though she knew his health problems made it extremely dangerous for him to consume alcohol.
Michael Warner died of alcohol poisoning. Officials said he had a .47 percent blood-alcohol level.
"The negligence comes from the fact that she provided the alcohol in large quantities to him and that he absorbed it and died from it. She knew and he knew that if he continued to absorb alcohol -- drink alcohol or absorb it any way -- it would kill him," Lake Jackson Detective Lt. Robert Turner told Local 2.
Police also charged Warner with fraudulent destruction of a legal document for allegedly burning her husband's will about a month before his death.
She was released from the Lake Jackson jail Monday night on a $30,000 bond.
