Gary Coleman was MURDERED!!!!!

The woman (above) who authorized Utah hospital authorities to take Garey Coleman off life support was NOT his current wife(!!), they had been divorced since 2008, although it appears they were living together.

I would bring this bitch up on manslaughter charges, if not 2nd degree murder.
I'd love to see if this chick has a life insurance policy out on him.

RIP GC

 

Not saying he was murdered. But, I did find it strange that they switched his life support machine off so quickly.

 

Even if she wasn't wrong for taking him off life support, she doesn't deserve a dime. I hope his family, or somebody, sues to make sure that bitch doesn't get a fucking penny.

If you happen to hear her 911 tape, you'll understand.

 

I don't think the Drs. and medical personnel would take someone off life support without there being scans of the brain first. He had to have been brain dead and proven to be so before any decision would be made.

 

I don't want the ex-wife to get anything but fuck his family getting it, his adoptive parents took all his money he earned when he was a kid. I don't think he has that much money right now anyway.

 

True. What she said on the 911 tape that Chi mentioned was horrible though! Wow, your soulmate, lover, (ex)husband is lying there dying and you're too grossed out to put a towel on his head. Dumb bitch.

 

Do you know a site where I can hear/read what she said on the 911 call?

 

That's true Jordan, doctors won't recommend that unless they believe there is no hope for recovery, and they generally base that on EEG scans. They also don't just let anyone request that life support be disconnected. In some states you have to specifically name the person responsible for making that decision, and if they're named by you it doesn't matter how they are related to you, or if they are related at all.

 

I doubt Gary Coleman gave his ex-wife power of attorney(!!).

Simply put, as his former wife, she did not have the legal authority to allow hospital professionals to take him off life support.
If she misrepresented herself as his current wife, she's in BIG trouble.

 

It doesn't require power of attorney. Some states require you to specify who is responsible for making that type of decision. If he had something in place like that, or a DNR, then it doesn't matter who had power of attorney.

 

Agreed. I don't know the circumstances of how long it took before he died after taking him off of life support, but if he was on life support, the chances were a long shot anyway that he'd have pulled through and had normal brain activity again.

Like Espy said, I'm sure there was something in his current will that stated she had the right to have it disconnected.

It looks bad right now, but we might never know the whole story. In either case, I'm sure the doctors wouldn't have done it if there was hope that he could recover.

That being said, his money should go to someone deserving or to charity. His adoptive parents don't deserve it.

 

Terry Shiavo, enough said.

Look at the court battle that the husband had to go through to get his wife off of life support when her parents didn't want her taken off.

She clearly didn't have a DNR otherwise it wouldn't have been such an issue.

It sounds like everything is on the up and up in regards to Gary Coleman. But, none of us has any inside knowledge on this subject.

 

Good point Bookie! I think that's the main reason separate agreements indicating what you want done in a life support situation, and who is responsible for making that decision for you became a more common practice. There are hospitals that won't take someone off life support unless you can legally require them too, and there are cases like Terry Shiavo where several family members and next of kin can't agree for whatever reason. My mother added that as part of her will several years ago for precisely that reason, she knew that of her 4 kids only 1 of us would be able to detach the emotion from the situation and make a logical decision based upon the medical prognosis for recovery. I personally think that's a good idea, assuming whomever you choose to make that decision is okay with that responsibility and will follow your wishes. I think it takes the stress off everyone else involved.

 

What money does he have anyway. Wasn't he working as a Security Guard in California??

 

Good point.

 

Oh, I thought he was a celebrity?.

 

The 911 call:

From hater site: Take with a grain of salt.

Meanwhile Price must be feeling guilty about something, because she did an interview where she tries to justify taking him off life support because she didn’t want him to “be like Muhammed Ali”:

Wouldnt want a wife like her.

 

He was a child actor then later worked as a security guard.

 

must work diferently here as the doctors have the final say and can over ride the familys wishes

they placed a DNR order on my daughter when she was 5 months old and i was told specifically what they would and wouldnt do for her and nothing i said made a damn bit of difference

 

according to the link madiba posted she DID have the right to switch off the life support

“Mr. Coleman had completed an Advanced Health Care Directive that granted Shannon Price permission to make medical decisions on his behalf if he was unable to do so. An Advanced Health Care Directive remains in effect regardless of a patient’s marital status, unless modified by the patient. It is a private medical document which the hospital does not have permission to release. However, we received permission to confirm that the document was in effect at the time of Mr. Coleman’s death.

“Because of federal privacy laws, the hospital will not be able to provide any additional information.”
