Dr. William McCormick said he reviewed records of Autumn Hills nursing home, looked at autopsy re sults on the body of patient Edna Mae Witt and did lab tests himself. “I think she died of renal (kidney) failure,” McCormick said. “I found nothing anatomically to suggest she had septicemia (infection).” McCormick gave the testimony in the state’s murder-by-neglect case against Autumn Hills Convalescent Centers Inc. and four of its current and former employees. They are charged with murder in the Nov. 20, 1978, death of Elnora Breed. The 87-year-old woman died 47 days after entering an Autumn Hills nursing home in Texas City. The defendants also are charged in Witt’s October 1978 death at Au tumn Hills. However, they are not being tried in her death. Prosecution witnesses have testified Witt died of septicemia. Defense experts claim she died of kidney failure. McCormick said state nursing home inspector Betty Korndorffer and prosecutor David Marks visited him sometime in 1979 to discuss the Witt case. Korndorffer testified earlier the nursing home was a “mess” in 1978 and that the state withheld funds from the facility because of substan dard conditions. McCormick said Korndorffer and Marks presented him with portions of Witt’s nursing home chart “and asked what my thoughts were and what I would suggest.” “The patient had significant renal problems and very likely was in renal failure,” he said. McCormick said he took “strong exception” to Bexar County medical examiner Dr. Vincent DiMaio’s testi mony that bedsores are the result of poor nursing care. DiMaio, a pros ecution witness, testified that Breed died of infection and starvation. “What Dr. DiMaio said was totally unjustified,” McCormick said. “I felt very strongly that Dr. DiMaio was wrong.” Warped by Scott McQ fWElL BE BACK WITH BRIEF rAOHEMT* OF T0HIGHTZ MOVIE AFTE* A LOT OF THESE L0/V0 ME^AOE^ * ...?0 CALLFOK iour earthworm stufffr N0VJ!

Mattox also announced that he has urged the Texas congressional delegation and other attorneys gen eral to support a report by the Na tional Council on the Handicapped that was sent to Congress and Presi dent Reagan. Mattox said the Attorney Gener al’s Disability Rights Advisory Com mittee might make recommenda tions to the 1987 Legislature on ways to strengthen laws for the disabled or might ask for new laws. “Our aim is very simple,” Mattox told a news conference. “First, we want everyone in Texas to under stand that disabled individuals are citizens first and foremost, and they should have every opportunity to be treated as such instead of being la beled as disabled first and citizens second. “To help reach that goal, my of fice will more closely scrutinize com pliance with state laws already on the books, such as our architectural bar riers law that says public buildings in our larger cities and counties and places open to the public like large shopping centers shall be accessible to disabled persons.” Mattox’s staff distributed copies of a memorandum showing the number of buses in various cities that are equipped with lift I handicapped. The memo said Daila buses, 85 with lifts, or 1 Fort Worth, Houstonandi : ‘ nio have no lift-equipps | according to the memo In Seattle, Wash.,howe'ifl 930 buses have lifts, orfiif and in Los Angeles, 1,691' buses are equipped with! is 59 percent.
