Wapo gives it in Oct. 1984; NYT is supposed to be March, but I haven't found the online article yet. Xasodfuih ( talk) 16:05, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
I cannot find any reference that calls the ensuing regulations "Libby Zion law" or "Libby law". This appears to be WP:OR. Xasodfuih ( talk) 21:19, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
Gosh, No mention of cocaine? working from memory, but she had cocaine in her system but it was below the legal limit upon admission, she had friends visit while in the hospital and there was suspicion she did cocaine with them. Drug test after death was not entered as evidence at trial but there was residue in her nose indicating that she *did coke while in the hospital*. A lot of the evidence was either destroyed or suppressed, but it was very clear that cocaine was a likely contributor.
Turns out the real story was an influential parent of an irresponsible child was unable to face responsibility when bad things happened. Blamed interns, blamed system, blamed anybody he could. Changed law.
US drug companies and medical system -- GUILTY. Drugs made in a hut in Colombia, adulterated in a warehouse in Mexico, and sold on the streets of Spanish Harlem,... no so much. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.146.118 ( talk) 12:33, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
Yes, this entry seems incomplete or there needs to be another entry with a medical analysis. I'm not an expert, but I found a source that seems to go deeper into the discussion on Libby's medical state before entering the hospital and up to her death. Not sure about the reliability of the source, but at least it starts to give a bigger picture. key words: Cocaine, inconclusive cocaine tests, Demerol and Nardil interaction, Nardil and Actifed interaction, sepsis, pneumonia, infected tooth, erythromycin, Streptococcus, petechiae (small hemorrhages)... There may have been a lot going on in that poor girl's body. http://www.med-malpractice.com/Zion27.htm
Could the use of "spell" be glossed? I think I get it from context, and it's directly from the Washington Post story, but it's a jargony or unusual way to write this. Does it mean to relieve the other person for a while? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.228.171.4 ( talk) 04:25, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
