Man claims caffeine insanity in wife's death

[Laura's Babies]

Well, if 3 cups of coffee is overdose, then I WAY overdose myself every single day. I drink a 12 cup pot every morning.... however mine is not thick and dark like some people drink it. Mine is a medium to light color.

Those energy drinks CAN mess you up bad, so can sleep deprivation and then he was taking pills on top of all that? The part that got me was he was trying to stay awake because he was afraid she would leave him? Hummmm?

I don't think he should walk away scott free, he IS an adult and he had to know what he was doing in taking all of that and going without sleep and the effects of those two things. Nobody twisted his arm and forced that down his throat.

I agree, Laura - it's like a drug addict committing a crime. I think he has to get help AND punishment in equal measure. Why would any sane person try to stay awake in fear his children would be taken away??? Alarm bells there!

Peace to that poor woman, and especially to her children. They have lost the dad they thought they had.
