Octuplets mother's publicist resigns after death threats
The president of a public relations group that has represented octuplets mother Nadya Suleman says it is stepping down because of death threats.
Joann Killeen also said today the mother now has an agent: Wes Yoder, the same man who arranged book and music deals for the McCaughey septuplets a decade ago and publicity for controversial pastor Rick Warren.
Ms Killeen said the Killeen Furtney Group was ending its free representation after receiving at least 100 graphic e-mailed threats and swarms of nasty voicemails that went to the Los Angeles agency and even to some of its other clients.
Word that the 33-year-old single unemployed mother is receiving public assistance to care for the 14 children she conceived through in vitro fertilisation has stoked furore.
