So there's this guy in Australia who is fighting in court to keep his wife on life support. She may or may not survive if the ventilator is removed; but she will surely die if her feeding tube is removed.
Terry Schiavo in reverse? The husband fighting to keep his beloved wife alive, against all odds?
Well, not exactly.
The reason the lady in question is on life support is that said husband tried, and failed, to strangle her to death. She was found, days later, locked in the trunk of a car.
And if she dies, he faces murder charges, rather than attempted murder.
And here's the capper, folks; and if you have a drink in your hand, put it down now:
According to his attorney, Mr. Husband is fighting against letting her die "for religious reasons."
*sigh*

Ah, I see he belongs to the Church of Lesser Charges.
Religion is the last refuge of the scoundrel.
