Dead after 13 days of detox in granny flatDavid King | September 06, 2007
VECKO Krsteski was a sick man. He had chronic kidney disease and needed daily dialysis and medication.
So when he saw an advertisement for doctor and naturopath Jeffrey Dummett that said "Need a cure?" he jumped at the chance to be treated.
The NSW Supreme Court heard yesterday Krsteski, 37, had paid $3000 to enter a live-in detoxification program in the granny flat of Mr Dummett's home in Oatley, in Sydney's south, on February 13, 2002.
As part of the program he allegedly stopped dialysis and medication and died in that unit 13 days later from heart failure. He had lost 11kg in 10 days.
Mr Dummett went on trial yesterday for Krsteski's manslaughter on the grounds of gross criminal negligence.
Crown prosecutor Paul Leask told the jury Mr Dummett was not a qualified medical doctor, nor a qualified naturopath, and had failed to provide a duty of care for his patient.
"The crown case is the accused held himself out as a doctor and qualified naturopath, and was grossly negligent because of the things he did and/or the things he did not do while Vecko Krsteski was under his care," Mr Leask said.
"The crown case is the accused filled Vecko with false hope for profit."
Mr Dummett's defence barrister John Doris said a post-mortem examination revealed Krsteski had a previously undiagnosed heart disease.
The forensic pathologist who examined the body, Peter Bradhurst, had found Krsteski's heart was "severely diseased", Mr Doris said.
It was the forensic pathologist's opinion that the heart disease would have claimed Krsteski's life at a relatively young age, he said.
Mr Leask told the court Krsteski had shown Mr Dummett his medical history before entering the detox.
The jury heard Mr Dummett had spoken to police after Krsteski was found dead in his granny flat and had espoused the eight "laws of health".
The eight laws were: nutrition, exercise, water, sunshine, temperance, air, rest and trust in a divine power.
The trial continues.

Naturopath not guilty of manslaughterSeptember 21, 2007 — 5.21pm
A Sydney naturopath has been cleared of the manslaughter of a patient "desperate for a cure" for his chronic kidney condition.
Jeffrey Dummett's eyes welled with tears as the jury foreman delivered the not guilty verdict in the NSW Supreme Court.
In February 2002, the now 39-year-old naturopath had placed Vecko Krsteski on a live-in detoxification program at his premises in Oatley, in Sydney's south.
The 37-year-old security guard, who had chronic renal disease and lost 11kg over ten days while at Oatley, died there from a heart attack.
Crown prosecutor Paul Leask contended Mr Dummett was "grossly negligent" in his treatment of the patient, claiming his actions and omissions caused or contributed to the death.
In an interview on the day the body was found, Mr Dummett admitted he knew Mr Krsteski was "desperate for a cure".
Mr Leask claimed the naturopath filled his patient "with false hope for profit", charging him $3,000 for the seven-day course, which was then extended.
While he did not go into the witness box at his trial, Mr Dummett gave evidence at the 2005 inquest when he denied responsibility for the death.
He told the coroner he had only offered Mr Krsteski "lifestyle rejuvenation" and dietary education.
He said he did not tell him to stop taking his medication or promise him a cure.
"The hospital had washed their hands of this man," Mr Dummett said.
"Out of love and compassion ... I took him in and I cared for him.
"At all times Vecko was under complete understanding that we were not treating him for renal disease."
His barrister John Doris told the jury Mr Krsteski was a "walking time bomb" who could have dropped dead at any time.
"You may not think much of Mr Dummett and his ways but that's not the question," he said, adding there was no evidence he had maltreated or poorly managed his patient.
He said the crown had failed to do more than suggest Mr Dummett was "a bit of a fraud" who "didn't know what he was talking about".
The post-mortem examination revealed Mr Krsteski died from a heart attack and had a previously undiagnosed severe heart condition.
Mr Doris told the jury Mr Krsteski had failed to look after himself in the years before his death.
"Vecko, for five years before he came into Dummett's care, was treating himself like running a car on empty and without getting a service," he said.
But Mr Leask said Mr Dummett had pretended he was a doctor, whereas his qualifications consisted of a PHD he purchased from Sri Lanka for $850.
He said Mr Dummett's program - which included diet and nutritional supplements that were dangerous and dehydrating enemas - was only capable "of driving him into an early grave".
"Even though Vecko was a sick man, if his death was a day too soon that would be enough," he said, in urging the jury to find Mr Dummett guilty of manslaughter.
Mr Krsteski visited Mr Dummett after his sister found a leaflet or part of an ad in a newspaper about the naturopath's business.
The advertisement asked the question: Need A Cure?
At the inquest, the coroner asked Mr Dummett to explain his definition of a cure.
"As a medical evangelist, we would read Matthew chapter 10," he said, producing a copy of the Bible from his pocket.
"The word cure is a terminology that I use in a spiritual realm.
"I've always considered myself to be a gospel medical missionary."
He said people visited his practice to be "educated spiritually, mentally and physically".
Mr Dummett said he had told Mr Krsteski of the eight laws of health he believed in; nutrition, exercise, water, sunshine, temperance, rest, trust and divine power.
In denying responsibility for the death, Mr Dummett had said Mr Krsteski "was dying anyway".
"Because he died on my premises, that does not mean that I'm responsible for his death," he told the inquest.
"This court is trying to prove that a nutritional dietetic program killed a patient who had a degenerative disease, who was dying anyway.
"None of us know ... how far Mr Krsteski was away from death. Only God knows."

Court orders life ban on naturopathApril 4, 2008 — 10.00am
A SYDNEY naturopath acquitted of manslaughter has been banned for life from providing a range of alternative health services.
The Supreme Court banned Jeremiah Jeffrey Hunter, previously known as Jeffrey Dummett, from being involved in any business that offers sports medicine, osteopathy, blood analysis, nutrition advice and other naturopathy services.
The Office of Fair Trading initiated the case after it said he was advertising services in Manly he was not qualified to provide.
"From now on, Jeremiah Hunter is able to do little more than offer massage services," said the Minister for Fair Trading, Linda Burney. "While the life ban is a small win for the sick and desperate who turned to him for help to try and cure their illnesses, it will stop others falling prey to his dubious claims in the future."
As Jeffrey Dummett, he was acquitted last year of manslaughter after the 2002 death of Vecko Krsteski, 37. The security guard, who had chronic renal disease, lost 11 kilograms and died during a 10-day detoxification program at Mr Hunter's Oatley premises.
