Cook reveals chicken dinner SI wife-killer choked to death on

This chicken is to die for!

The sister-in-law of cable-loving wife-killer Thomas Scala yesterday whipped up the same poultry dinner that he choked to death on — and even said he complained about her cooking.

“He said he was hungry. I said dinner was already made,” Mary Scala, the widow of Thomas’ brother, told The Post. “He said, ‘Oh, chicken? You serve a lot of chicken.’ We talked about how he should be happy to have a chicken cutlet.”

Despite his gripes, the toothless 58-year-old was so hungry that he didn’t bother to cut it into small bites — and wound up gagging to death.

That final act of karma came on July 12, just days before the lowlife was to get a wrist-slap probation sentence for killing his wife because she refused to pay $5.75 a day for cable TV in his hospital room.

That night, Mary cooked the chicken cutlets in her Tottenville home, where the retired longshoreman was staying while he recovered from a hospital stay for a hernia.

Mary — who wisely paid for his cable during that hospital visit — made her signature chicken-cutlet dish, which included a hint of parsley and onion.

Thomas was late to the fateful dinner, and sat down after Mary and her two kids had finished.

“He took a couple mouthfuls and said he had to use the bathroom. Then I heard, ‘Oh, no!’ and he came out of the bathroom, and his face was a little red. I looked at him, and he was just sitting there and he looked surprised.”

Yep! She accidentally drowned a drunk and drugged guy by putting a big bowl of chicken soup in front of him.

a rather bizarre story - and the writing is even worse.

(And Yes, I would expect ‘fowl play’ but justified fowl play. And if the law there couldn’t find him guilty of even manslaughter after deliberately throwing an object at his wife, killing her - how can they now turn around and charge the SIL with ANYthing. She just cooked him supper. As the son said - justice is done.)

I’m still not sure this isn’t “the Onion”
