The distraught spouse of a guy from Long Island who died after being drawn inside an MRI scanner is accusing the imaging tech of being responsible for his demise.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Keith McAllister, 61, suffered severe injuries Wednesday afternoon at Nassau Open MRI in Westbury as his metal chain violently pulled him into the scanner.<\/p>\n

His injuries later claimed his life, Nassau County police said.<\/p>\n

Adrienne Jones-McAllister, his wife, requested that a technician call her husband in to assist her in getting off the table after she had just finished an MRI on her knee.<\/p>\n

The machine\u2019s strong magnetic attraction drew McAllister in as soon as he walked in the door, still wearing the 20-pound metal chain his wife claimed he\u00a0\u201cused for weight training.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jones-McAllister told\u00a0News 12 Long Island<\/a>,\u00a0\u201cI saw him walk toward the table and then the machine just snatched him.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHe went limp in my arms \u2013 and this is still pulsating in my brain.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

She claimed that in spite of the obvious chain, which had been worn during earlier visits to the same facility, the technician let her husband inside the room.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was not the first time that guy had seen that chain. They\u2019d had a conversation about it before,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0she said.<\/p>\n

\n

According to her, McAllister had many heart attacks following the incident and eventually passed away from his wounds.<\/p>\n

Samantha Bodden, McAllister\u2019s stepdaughter, agreed with her mother and blamed the technician for her stepfather\u2019s untimely demise.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile my mother was laying on the table, the technician left the room to get her husband to help her off the table. He forgot to inform him to take the chain he was wearing from around his neck off when the magnet sucked him in,\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0Bodden wrote\u00a0on Facebook Friday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, she refuted reports from\u2019several news stations\u2019 that McAllister was not permitted to be in the room.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cSeveral news stations are saying he wasn\u2019t authorized to be in the room, when in fact he was because the technician went and brought him into the room,\u201d\u00a0<\/strong>she wrote on a\u00a0GoFundMe page<\/a>\u00a0organized to help cover burial expenses.<\/p>\n

The Nassau County Police Department said in a press statement that McAllister entered the MRI room while a scan was still in progress and was drawn in by the metallic chain around his neck by the machine\u2019s powerful magnetic force.<\/p>\n

Jones-McAllister told News 12 that after requesting that the technician get her husband, she had yelled out to him.<\/p>\n
