The publicists for Nadya Suleman have quit because of the number of death threats that they have received. Their client had 6 children and was unemployed when she gave birth to octuplets on January 26.
Mike Furtney and his wife Joann Killeen, president of Killeen Furtney Group decided early Saturday to no longer carry Nadya Suleman. The couple was not charging Suleman.
The LA Times reports:
"They hope I die, they hope my business goes under, they want to rip her uterus out," Killeen said. "They say I should be anesthetized and put down like a dog."
Because of the threats both Suleman and Killeen were staying in a secure location last week before they returned home. The infants remain in hospital.
On Tuesday a web site was created by Killeen debuted. After the launch she received 55,000 e-mails. Most of those mailing were negative. She has also been given stacks of angry postal mail.
Police are saying that the threats are the worst they have seen since the O.J. Simpson.
