WAUSAU, Wis. - The Chicago Tribune reports: The frantic 911 call to the Marathon County Sheriff's Department from the home of an 11-year-old Weston girl who died from untreated diabetes was made by friends of the girl's parents, authorities said Thursday.
The callers hadn't previously been identified.
Randall and Althea Wormgoor each spoke to a dispatcher as chaos and cries could be heard in the background at Dale and Leilani Neumann's home in rural Weston on Sunday afternoon, said Capt. Scott Sleeter of the Everest Metro Police Department in Weston.
Madeline Neumann died Sunday from an undiagnosed but treatable form of diabetes as her parents prayed for her to get better. Her mother, Leilani Neumann, said she never expected her daughter, whom she called Kara, to die. The family believes in the Bible, which says healing comes from God, Leilani Neumann said.
The sheriff's department released tape recordings Thursday of two calls related to the girl's medical condition.
One was from an aunt in California on the department's non-emergency line, Lt. Jason Plaza said. She reported the girl was in a coma and needed medical help because the family "believes in faith instead of doctors."
As a great piece of legislation, the article goes on to say, “"recklessly causing the death of another human being." … carries up to 25 years in prison.
But Wisconsin has laws on the books that say a parent cannot be accused of abuse or neglect of a child if in good faith they selected prayer as a basis of treatment for a disease,” PRAISE AND GLORY! (my outpouring)

Instead, Dale and Leilani Neumann prayed over the telephone Saturday with the founder of a religious Web site named AmericasLastDays.com.
The stunning detail was revealed Thursday by David Eells, whose Unleavened Bread Ministries operates the Web site that focuses on religious healing and the apocalypse. Leilani Neumann, who lives in the Town of Weston, wrote two posts on the Web site.

The lesson here is that false priests lead people astray – the girl child Kara (not a very Biblical name) is now burning in the fires of Hell, with her only comfort being that her parents will join her.
Contrast this if you will with the heart-warming lesson from Judges 11 where the daughter ends up equally dead, but in Heaven in the arms of a compassionate God:
J'g:11:29: Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead, and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over unto the children of Ammon.
J'g:11:30: And Jephthah vowed a vow unto the LORD, and said, If thou shalt without fail deliver the children of Ammon into mine hands,
J'g:11:31: Then it shall be, that whatsoever cometh forth of the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, shall surely be the LORD's, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering.
J'g:11:32: So Jephthah passed over unto the children of Ammon to fight against them; and the LORD delivered them into his hands.
[…]
J'g:11:34: And Jephthah came to Mizpeh unto his house, and, behold, his daughter came out to meet him with timbrels and with dances: and she was his only child; beside her he had neither son nor daughter.
[…]
J'g:11:39: And it came to pass at the end of two months, that she returned unto her father, who did with her according to his vow which he had vowed: and she knew no man. And it was a custom in Israel,
J'g:11:40: That the daughters of Israel went yearly to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in a year.
