Neuologicablog is the first good review of the reporting and the likely facts of the case I've seen. This case has been parroted all over the internet, and I'm too furious at the lousy reporting and medical inaccuracies to even go into the issues that neurologica has already nicely summarized.

If someone was lying around for 17 hours with no circulation, they're not going to wake up.
