The heartbroken wife of a Long Island man who was tragically killed after being pulled into an MRI machine is blaming the imaging technician for his death. Keith McAllister, 61, was critically injured Wednesday afternoon at Nassau Open MRI in Westbury after being violently drawn into the machine by the metal necklace he was wearing.  He later died from his injuries, according to Nassau County police. His wife, Adrienne Jones-McAllister, had just completed an MRI on her knee and asked a technician to bring her husband in to help her off the table.

A '"20 lb metal chain" that he wore around his neck? What the heck, this is like a section of logging chain. That's nuts.

What on earth was he doing wearing a 20lb chain to a MAGNETIC resonance imaging appointment, even if he wasn't the one getting the test??? Every time I've had an MRI, they have made me use one of the available lockers, remove EVERY piece of metal jewelry, keys or any metal object and lock them up before they allow me ANYWHERE near the exam room. And if my clothing has any metal on it, like a bra clasp, they make me remove it and wear a hospital gown. Mr. Weight Lifter should have had better sense and I strongly suspect that there is more to this story.

You're supposed to remove ALL metal objects before those scans, even little pins and rings. Tragic stupidity.

Socialized medicine: You just can't get good help these days. In a good hospital, you can't get within 100 feet of a magnetic resonance imaging machine without first removing all metal. They show training videos of what happens if a housekeeper mistakenly brings a floor buffer into the room with an MRI machine. The thing gets stuck on the side of the machine like a kitchen magnet.

How many people wear a 20 LB chain necklace around their neck? Just one. The husband, whose wife called her husband into the room, instead of asking the technician to help her up. The husband and the wife are idiots and should take responsibility for their actions -- but they won't, because they are idiots, and want money.

Grifters gotta grift. There's no way this clown was admitted into an MRI room to "help." It's a straight out money grab. The Daily Mail doesn't even know how these machines work. Their previous article described the MRI as a "rapidly spinning machine." MRIs don't spin. They just sit here.

I've had several MRI scans. Every time, the technician or nurse helps with the getting on and off the table. Absolutely no one else comes in the room until the scan is complete. Either there is more to this story, or this is the worst run MRI on God's green earth. Is suspect that state licenses and certifications are going to be revoked very soon.

This story stinks like a whorehouse at low tide. A twenty-pound chain? Around his neck? That’s akin to slinging two loaded hunting rifles around your neck and walking around. How could it possibly be used for “weight training”? Methinks this was a scam by Shaniqua and DaJuan to sue the hospital. Since the stunt got him killed, she can now pick up some quick cash via a GoFundMe account, with contributions from those on the left side of the bell curve. Whoever believes this story is going to look pretty silly in a few months.

I recall an MRI machine being the mechanism of death in one of the Final Destination movies. This is nuts. I believe an MRI machine has a powerful magnet in it that is enhanced when the machine is active. Is the magnet enhanced when the machine is powered on as well? The test was over. Did the machine malfunction? Final Destination indeed.

From an ER doctor: "If this was a chain that was wrapped around the neck, I could imagine any kind of strangulation injuries that could happen, asphyxiation, cervical spine injuries if the patient was slams against the MRI, you know, any kind of blunt force trauma that we can think about could happen," said emergency medicine Dr. Payal Sud. https://abc7ny.com/post/man-dies-being-pulled-mri-machine-wearing-metal-chain-nassau-county-long-island/17184517/ The magnet would have pulled the chain into the MRI machine and his body with it.

When I had an MRI the technician also asked me if I had any hair clasp or bobby pins and I was told no pierced earrings or jewelry of any kind. No one came into the room other that the technician as it was not open to family, friends or anyone else.

#5, I have photographed dozens of MRI rooms and while I do empty my pockets of keys and other metal objects, my camera and tripod frequently get to within about 20 feet of the business end of the machine. Usually there are clear markings on the floor that represent the point at which a ferrous object starts to be an issue. Shoot, the control rooms are full of computers and magnetic media and only about 15-18 feet away.

Never before in American history has a departing president connived to sabotage and destroy the man who would replace him. Newly revealed documents show that in 2016 then-President Barack Obama and his national security team "manufactured and politicized" phony intelligence to help frame Donald Trump as a Russian asset when they knew it was untrue. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard who unearthed and released the declassified documents on Friday described it as an "egregious abuse of power" that amounts to a "treasonous conspiracy."

A new poll suggested that democratic socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s sheen may already be wearing off among voters. Mamdani’s support appears to have dropped 14 percentage points from less than a week ago, based on a previous poll, while Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa’s surged 12 percent. Mamdani shocked the political world by winning the Democratic primary, defeating former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. He now faces Sliwa and Cuomo, as well as current New York City Mayor Eric Adams, in the general election. Cuomo and Adams are both running as independents, assuming they each decide to stay in the race.

ISRAEL says some of Iran's highly-enriched near weapons-grade uranium stockpile survived US bombings during the 12-Day War last month. Doubts remained about whether Iran quietly removed 408.6 kgs of uranium from its most sensitive sites before the strikes - potentially hiding nuclear material elsewhere in the country. The uranium in question is enriched to 60 per cent - way above levels for civilian usage but slightly below weapons-grade. That material, if further refined to 90 per cent, would theoretically be sufficient to produce more than nine nuclear bombs.An Israeli official told The New York Times some of the uranium stockpile survived the US and Israeli bombings last month

The U.S. has closed its southern border again to livestock imports, saying a flesh-eating parasite has moved further north in Mexico than previously reported. Mexico’s president was critical Thursday, suggesting that the U.S. is exaggerating the threat to its beef industry from the parasite, the New World screwworm fly. The female flies lay eggs in wounds on warm-blooded animals, hatching larvae that are unusual among flies for feeding on live flesh and fluids instead of dead material. American officials worry that if the fly reaches Texas, its flesh-eating maggots could cause large economic losses, something that happened decades ago. The U.S. largely eradicated the pest in the 1970s

Federal judge James Boasberg advised Chief Justice John Roberts and some two dozen other judges that his D.C. colleagues were “concern[ed] that the Administration would disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a constitutional crisis,” according to a memorandum obtained exclusively by The Federalist. That Judge Boasberg and his fellow D.C. District Court judges would discuss how a named Defendant in numerous pending lawsuits might respond to an adverse ruling is shocking. Equally outrageous is those judges’ clear disregard for the presumption of regularity — a presumption that requires a court to presume public officials properly discharged their official duties.

An off-duty Border Patrol agent was shot in the face after being robbed by a moped-riding illegal immigrant in a New York City park — but he shot back and wounded his attacker, according to sources. The suspect has been identified as Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez, a 21-year-old Dominican national with a lengthy rap sheet in New York as well as a deportation order, according to sources — but he was let go each time he was busted. Mora entered the US illegally via the southern border under the Biden admin, the Department of Homeland Security said Sunday.
