Australian woman who went missing for 4 days. She was then found, barely alive in the back in her automobile on February 13, 2005. She was in a coma, before relapse into post-coma non-responsiveness. She was the subject of controversy in Australia in the year 2005. According to their perspective the public has characterized the issue as being related to the right to die or human rights and the protection of those who have disabilities.
On February 16, 2005, the police charged Joe Korp, 47, as well as his mistress Tania Herman 38, for attempts to murder Korp as well as conspiracy to murder and deliberately causing serious injuries. Both were arraigned the next day in the Melbourne Magistrates’ court and were detained for a week. On April 28, 2005 Korp was appointed as the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal appointed the Public Advocate of Victoria, Julian Gardner as Korp’s legal guardian.
On 26 July 2005 Victoria’s Public Advocate, Julian Gardner, announced that the feeding tube to Korp would cease to be used for providing artificial nutrition and hydration, that palliative care would be implemented and that she was expected to die within 7 to 14 days. Korp died on 5 August 2005. Her husband’s mistress, Tania Herman, pleaded guilty on 8 June 2005 to attempted murder, and was sentenced to 12 years’ imprisonment; husband Joe Korp, also charged with her attempted murder, committed suicide on the day of her funeral.
The story was portrayed in the 2006 book The Maria Korp Case: The Woman In The Boot Story by Sunday Herald Sun journalist Carly Crawford. The book was later adapted into a 2010 television movie called Wicked Love: The Maria Korp Story, starring Rebecca Gibney as Maria Korp, Vince Colosimo as Joe Korp, and Maya Stange as Herman. It is narrated by Korp herself, from her point of view, as if from beyond the grave, detailing the events from the Korps’ wedding to the beginning of Joe Korp’s affair, and its consequences, while postulating the theory that her husband was involved in her death.
The anti-euthanasia activists threatened legal action in order to help save Korp in August 2005. They staged peaceful protests at the Melbourne’s Alfred Hospital to demonstrate against Gardner’s “inhumane” decision by Gardner to stop feeding artificially Korp with artificial food. Her artificial nutrition as well as hydration program was stopped on July 27, based following the decision of Gardner who declared that all doctors who examined her (including an outside specialist from the hospital that was arranged by Gardner) had advised her that any further treatment beyond palliative treatment was not a good idea and she had no chances of recovery. Gardner decided on the basis of the medical evidence and an evidence-based basis that substantiated her convictions and values that continuing therapy was in no one’s best interest.

As per the ABC Radio report Gardner said that she and her husband spoke for several months with those who were familiar with her and her priest to discover what she believedin, and also sought out the advice of “an expert Catholic ethicist”. Gardner was provided with the specifics of the evidence medically proven and was asked to decide if the evidence of the medical conditions she was suffering from, the discontinuation of other treatments other that palliative care could be conforming to the decision made concerning this issue issued by the previous Pope during April 2004. He decided that it would be. Many of her relatives were opposed to the removal in life support. Their motives were not publically stated apart from the fact that the doctors were in error and Korp was not dying. Korp did not die. That was the basis for the statements made from a family member in Portugal. It is possible to speculate if the reason for their opposition was to prevent Joe Korp being charged with murder, or if they saw the removal of the life support system as an act that could be considered euthanasia, which is considered to be a sin within The Roman Catholic Church.
