Man kisses sick wife and tosses her over balcony
KANSAS CITY, Missouri (AP) -- A man threw his seriously ill wife four stories to her death because he could no longer afford to pay for her medical care, prosecutors said in charging him with second-degree murder.
According to court documents filed Wednesday in Jackson County Circuit Court, Stanley Reimer walked his wife to the balcony of their apartment and kissed her before throwing her over.
In the probable cause statement filed with the charges, police said Reimer was desperate because he could not pay the bills for his wife's treatment for neurological problems and uterine cancer.
According to Jackson County Probate Court records, Criste Reimer had been in ill health for several years. Her weight had fallen to 75 pounds and she was partly blind.
According to the court records, she had no health insurance to pay for medical bills that ranged from $700 to $800 per week.
The Probate Court documents were filed in April, when Stanley Reimer petitioned to be allowed to sell personal property his wife owned in Wheeler County, Texas, for $20,000.
The documents listed her assets at approximately $6,700, with monthly income of $725 from oil royalties and Supplemental Security Income.

I can understand his motive, but couldn't he have done it a little less grisly?

All the more reason for our govt. to provide universal health care.
Exactly what I was going to say. That is disgusting, but I also blame the government for not providing health care for all.

I coudln't agree more. People actually steal to help pay for medical bills. Some people get this desperate.
I don't agree with killing her but if she was admitted to the hospital, she could at least get care and he could worry about the bills when they sued him...years later.

Re: Man kisses sick wife and tosses her over balcony
that is so sad. i really don't know what the answer is bc i think universal health care sounds like a great idea... but has its own pitfalls.

Re: Man kisses sick wife and tosses her over balcony
i don't get it, would he rather be in jail than bankrupt? If so, do another crime- don't kill your wife! doesn't make sense to me.

Re: Man kisses sick wife and tosses her over balcony
That he kissed her before sending her to her death makes me stop to wonder how grief and fear played into this sad decision. NOT that I agree with what he did.
Answered my own thoughts by finding his pic:
I don't see grief or fear in this face...that poor woman. Plus according to the Kansas City paper didn't confess to police...took time to figure it all out.

Universal healthcare is not the answer.

Re: Man kisses sick wife and tosses her over balcony
I can not evan fathom the idea that someone could attempt to justify that !!
It sickens me to think this man threw his sick, suffering WIFE off the balcony of their HOME because he 'couldn't pay her medical bills' - I couldn't do that to a stray dog, much less my DH !!
I would live in a box on the street corner fro the rest of my life if it meant caring for my DH !!
That poor woman spent the last year of her life sick, in pain, and suffering only to have it end by her HUSBAND throwing her off the balcony ?? !! - That is just disgusting !
