Prosecutors in Germany have charged a doctor with
negligent bodily harm for declaring a 92-year-old
woman dead, only for her to awaken again in a
refrigerated room at a funeral home.
Essen prosecutor Birgit Juergens said the 53-year-old
doctor, whose name wasn�t released in line with privacy
regulations, could face anything from a fine to prison
time if convicted.
The doctor is alleged to have pronounced the seriously ill
woman dead in March after a caregiver found her
without a pulse and not breathing at a retirement home.
That Thursday evening, a worker at the funeral home
where she�d been taken to heard a scream from the
refrigeration room and discovered the woman alive.
Juergens says the 92 year old died 2 days later in a
hospital from heart disease unrelated to the incident.
