sorry grandma, child molestors go first , now she's dead

The family of a woman who died after being moved out of a trauma room to accommodate the ailing Michael Jackson plans to sue both the hospital and the star.
Manuela Gomez Ruiz, 74, was transferred out of the main trauma room at the Marian Medical Centre in Santa Maria, California, when Jackson was rushed in suffering from "flu-like symptoms" last week.

Her family claims she was taken off a machine ventilator and her breathing was instead assisted manually by a handpump.

Mrs Ruiz was being treated after having a heart attack but suffered two more that day before she died.
Her daughter-in-law, Anna Ruiz, told ABC News she saw Jackson come into the emergency unit.

"He walked in," she said. "When I saw him, he was walking unassisted."

Daughter's objections

Mrs Ruiz's daughter Maria Elena Ortiz was also in the hospital and objected when her mother was moved.

"Why does she have to be moved if he's coming in for a stomach flu?" she said.

"I said, 'My mother just had a heart attack and I think it's more critical than a stomach flu'. They didn't say anything."

The family claims the chaos caused by Jackson's arrival distracted staff. They said equipment had to be crammed into the smaller room and they were limited to two visitors at a time.

Those visitors could not then leave because the hospital restricted movement in the corridors when Jackson arrived, the family claims.

Relatives allege that the hospital's policy "needs to be changed" if a patient with flu can take precedence over someone with a heart attack. They have hired a lawyer to sue the hospital and the star.

Jackson's publicist Raymone Bain issued a statement saying: "Michael Jackson sends his condolences to the family of the deceased.

"However, it is outrageous that Michael Jackson's name would be invoked into a situation of which he had no authority or control. It appears that ABC is deliberate in its attempt to circumvent Michael Jackson from receiving a fair trial."

Jury selection in Jackson's child molestation trial was delayed while the singer recovered from the flu. Opening arguments are scheduled to begin in the Santa Maria court on Monday.

it really sucks to be Michael Jackson right now...

but it sucks even more what was done to that lady, if my mother was laid up having just had a heart attack i'd be damned if I would allow her to have second rate treatment just because she isn't famous, I doubt i'd sue MJ cause it really isn't his fault, but i damn sure would sue that hospital and especially who ever is in charge of the trama dept.
