Daniel Brohm, 23, Decapitated While Vomiting

wire that decapitated his passenger, then drove 12 miles home and slept
in his bloody clothes, leaving the headless body in his truck, police
said.
A neighbor walking with his young daughter Sunday morning discovered
Daniel Brohm's headless corpse in the truck in John Kemper Hutcherson's
driveway and called authorities, said Cpl. Dana Pierce, county police
spokesman.
Officers found Hutcherson asleep inside his home. He was visibly drunk
and his clothes were bloody, authorities said. They later found Brohm's
severed head at the crash site.
"It's hard for one to imagine that you would drive miles from a crash
site to your home, turning in various directions, and yet not know what
has happened to a passenger sitting next to you," Pierce said.
Hutcherson, 21, was charged with vehicular homicide, driving under the
influence and failure to stop at an accident with death or injury. He
was jailed on a $100,000 bond; it was unclear Monday whether he had an
attorney.
Police said Hutcherson and Brohm - friends since high school - were
drinking at a bar Saturday night and left after Brohm said he felt
sick.
Brohm, 23, apparently was leaning out of the window when Hutcherson hit
the support wire about a mile and a half from the bar.

So Mom was right when she warned us not to stick our heads out the
window.

I was wondering that myself. If the vomiting continued (and I don't
see why it shouldn't, since all of Mr. Brohm's vomit-capable parts were
still inside the truck), did it just sort of keep spewing out his neck
like a fountain? And does Quentin Tarantino know about this?

You guys are sick, sick, sick ;)
On things for sure ... I'll bet that truck is a mess. I'd hate to be the one
who either repos it or gets the job of cleaning it up.

The vomit mechanisms are still down there, but I am guessing that
"vomit control" is in the brain. So, it would depend on what the
mechanisms are prone to do when their controls are removed. Do they
go on strike, or do they have a vomit heydey?

I was wondering, if you get a decapitation like this, are you obliged
to send some kind of video evidence to Al Jazeera? Or can you just
send it to ogrish.com and expect it to be picked up from there?
Not that I have anything, but you never know, right?

I would guess that the heart stopped almost immediately after the head left,
and the vomiting stopped immediately after the heart stopped, eh?

While the brain sometimes decides to make the body vomit (for instance,
some people are set off when they see other people vomiting), I think
once the process starts, there is no stopping it. It is autonomic --
peristalsis in reverse.
Of course, the brain controls autonomic functions, so perhaps a man
without a head cannot vomit, after all. In the Navy, of course, a
sailor would do well to throw up *in* the head.
You know, this is getting very complicated. I throw up my hands.

There's a ton of companies doing this work. Just google "crime scene
cleanup" or variations. Here's the lead paragraph from an L.A. Times
article on the profession:
--
Mike Nicholson can stomach the most gruesome of death scenes -- from victims
of violent crime and suicide to decomposing corpses -- without so much as a
grimace.
He even brings a grim sort of humor to his work -- such as his account of a
man who shot himself in a sporting goods store.
"There were parts of him everywhere," Nicholson said of the 1999 suicide.
"He did it at the sporting goods desk, but he made it all the way to
fishing."

I'm not a doctor, heck I don't even play one next to the tv, but
wouldn't the heart keep pumping until there wasn't enough blood volume
to keep it going? Otherwise wouldn't decapitation be rather bloodless,
and haven't we all seen enough Kurosawa to know *that* isn't how it works?

Actually, his name was Francis Daniel Brohm, and he was a native of
Louisville. Look at that I just found on one of the local news website:
(LOUISVILLE, August 31st, 2004, 4 p.m.) -- A 21-year-old Georgia man
remains jailed on charges of vehicular homicide and DUI after a
passenger in his car, Louisville native Francis Daniel Brohm, was killed
instantly in a bizarre accident near Marietta, Georgia. As WAVE 3's
Craig Hoffman reports, family members of both victims are relying on
faith to see them through this ordeal.
Police say 21-year-old John Kemper Hutcherson was driving drunk when he
hit a telephone pole support wire that decapitated Brohm as he leaned
out the passenger window. Police say Hutcherson then drove 12 miles to
his suburban Atlanta home and slept in his bloody clothes, leaving the
headless body in his truck, police said.
A neighbor walking with his baby daughter Sunday morning discovered
Brohm's headless corpse in the truck in Hutcherson's driveway and called
authorities.
Police said Hutcherson and Brohm -- best friends since they attended
Pope High School together -- were drinking at a bar Saturday night and
left after Brohm said he felt sick. Brohm had been hanging his head out
the passenger seat window when Hutcherson swerved off the road about a
mile and a half from the bar.
Officers said Hutcherson appeared remorseful after they found him
sleeping inside his home Sunday morning, still covered in blood and
visibly inebriated. Police don't think foul play is involved.
Frankie Brohm's family believes faith and prayers will get them through
this devastating time. "It doesn't all make sense to us now," says
Frankie's uncle, Tom Goodin. "It doesn't seem fair at times. I am a firm
believer in His will will be done."
Goodin says his nephew was full of life, zest, and love. He planned to
see him at the family's annual labor day camping outing this weekend.
"Even though they moved to Atlanta, they always made a point to come
back."
Frankie left Louisville in 1997 when his father took a job in Georgia.
But family and friends say his heart was always here. That's why he'll
be laid to rest "back home."
Theresa Webb says news of her nephew's death ""breaks my heart -- the
only thing, the comfort we can take is he didn't suffer. But it's such a
preventable accident."
Frankie's grandmother, Elizabeth Goodin, says her daughter, Kathy, and
Hutcherson's family are very close. "He's got a tough road ahead of him,
and his (Kennedy's) mother, she came over to Kathy -- was hysterical --
said: 'Kathy, how are we going to get through this?'"
The answer? "Our faith will get us through it."
Brohm spent grades one through eight at St. Bernard's Catholic School,
where he was affectionately known as Frankie, a student everyone liked.
Although he has been gone several years, his teachers and fellow
classmates remember him well. They too are struggling to cope with the
devastating news.
"When it's somebody that you know it's almost as if a piece of your
heart has been removed," said Cathy Bingham, one of Brohm's former
instructors. "That wasn't just some young man -- that was somebody that
we knew and loved."
Principal Don Matlock says counselors are on hand for anyone who needs
help. "We have people who taught to the young man in preschool, all the
way up to eighth grade. Many of our families had children in school with
him. So it has been a shocking event for everyone."
Ratterman Funeral Home in Buechel is handling arrangements. A service is
set for Friday, September 3rd at St. Bartholomew in Louisville, and a
memorial will be held September 7th at St. Ann's Church in Marietta, Ga.
Meanwhile, Hutcherson remains jailed in Georgia on a $100,000 bond
awaiting additional court appearances.
A memorial fund has been set up in Brohm's name. If you'd like to help,
send contributions to the Frankie Brohm Memorial Scholarship Fund, care
of St. Bernard's Catholic School, 7501 Tangelo Drive, Louisville, Ky.
