Trying to ‘survive this hell hole’: Alleged parent poisoner Raelene Polymiadis has ‘code black’ in cell

Are there "hell holes" in Australia?

 

[TootsieFootsie]

I suppose a prison cell is a lot different to being in your own home.

I suppose a prison cell is a lot different to being in your own home.

Being (allegedly) poisoned by one's own child is also "a lot different" to natural death

Trying to ‘survive this hell hole’: Alleged parent poisoner Raelene Polymiadis has ‘code black’ in cell


Behind a paywall. Putting it here for those who subscribe.

Thanks again, Tootsie.

RP needs her CPAP machine for her sleep apnoea - the (new) specialist said in court today that her not having the CPAP machine is exacerbating her diabetes. And he says that she needs insulin and regular blood sugar tests. He said it can be adequately managed in prison.

Remanded in custody again till a further bail hearing some time next week.
The judge has ordered a home detention bail inquiry report, but says that shouldn't be taken as indicative of what her determination will be.

Thanks South!

So give her a cpap machine.
Why are they giving in to all her whining....

Ms Shaw said that her client suffered a hypoglycaemic attack just before her hearing this morning after recording a "dangerous" blood-sugar level because she was unable to access insulin.

Strange because hypoglycaemic is low blood sugars, surely if not taking insulin then she would be hyperglycaemic?

The actual article says nothing at all about being forced to take (or being given) any medicine.
Presumably, they helped her out of her medical difficulties. So that she could attend court. Maybe they gave her some aspirin?

My goodness, doesn't this lady have a lot of health problems?! I wonder if her children are wondering if they should help her out, IYKWIM?

The authorities may be concerned that she might help herself out - to avoid a trial and to avoid facing the exposure of her (suppressed) motive for allegedly murdering her parents.

There seems to be a lot that they are not telling us at the moment, with so much suppression.

They may be being very careful how much they let her near insulin and CPAP machines.

Woman charged with murdering parents taken to hospital after medical episode

A woman accused of murdering her parents has been taken to hospital after an apparent medical episode in court.

Raelene Polymiadis, accused of murdering parents, taken to hospital after medical episode​

A bail review hearing for a woman accused of murdering her parents by injecting them with insulin has been postponed, after the woman suffered an apparent medical episode before the hearing.

 

[GoBuckeyes]

Had the daughter have been a bit more criminally smart, and had poisoned both her parents together, at the same time, it would've looked like a suicide pact or murder suicide.

I'm glad the daughter has been caught, and hope she hasn't killed any more people in her job as an aged care assistant.

Ironically, depending on how well she manages the diabetes, she may not be too far from needing a carer of her own. MOO

Perhaps he meant hyper?

What a terrible case.

None that I've been in anyway!

Raelene Polymiadis, accused of murdering parents, taken to hospital after medical episode​

A bail review hearing for a woman accused of murdering her parents by injecting them with insulin has been postponed, after the woman suffered an apparent medical episode before the hearing.

(Paywalled & paraphrased)

This morning the prosecutor supplied the court with RP's discharge papers.

The doctors at the Royal Adelaide Hospital had discharged RP - the discharge notes suggesting that there was no concern with RP's blood pressure or blood sugar. The just-before-court episode seems to be stress related.

Justice McIntyre will hear final submissions (it doesn't say when) and make her decision on bail in two weeks time.

Justice McIntyre said that she wants to bring this bail application to its conclusion, because they are at risk of setting a record in how long the hearings are taking.

Doctors attribute alleged poison murderer Raelene Polymiadis’ court collapse to stress – and not diabetes, court told

If she is indeed guilty of murdering her parents, her poor health might explain why she (allegedly) didn't want to wait any longer for her inheritance. Allegedly, etc, etc.

 

[minusfour]

So she had a panic attack before court? And the allegations of uncontrolled sleep apnea, causing high blood pressure and making her diabetes harder to control were more like speculations, which have now been proven to be incorrect ?

It's all very dramatic.

"Apparent" medical episode. Indeed.
