I feel so sorry for her kids. They will have to grow up without their mother. The whole thing is so pointless.

Yeah the reporting for this has gone off the rails. We need more facts, but I see too much blame coming down on the pranksters over this.

I don't know... its a total **** thing to prank medical professionals or emergency personel. You just don't do that.

Well they should be punished, I'm not denying they crossed the line. But they are in no way responsible for her death.

It's a tricky one, and of course based on an assumption in the first place. 

But accepting that assumption, what if they'd hoaxed someone they knew to be emotionally vulnerable? I think most people would agree that they would bear some culpability in that case. And since such pranksters can't know what state their victim is in, they were taking a risk. If it turns out that the risk went bad, I would say they must bear some blame for what they did.

If they'd been calling someone who's job it was to filter incoming calls (a political aide, say), that would be different. But this person was a nurse, on duty in the small hours when the regular staff were not about.
