After the PR group that was representing her stepped back due to death threats, Nadya Suleman – the mother of octuplets – now has a an agent.
The agent is Wes Yoder. He also arranged book and music deals for the McCaughey septuplets about ten years ago and took care of publicity for Pastor Rick Warren.
The Killeen Furtney Group, who had been representing Suleman for free, decide to end it after receiving more than 100 e-mailed threats and even more voicemails.
"They hope I die, they hope my business goes under, they want to rip her uterus out," said Joann Killeen, president of Killeen Furtney Group.
"They say I should be anesthetized and put down like a dog."
Killeen said that, after creating a Web site for Suleman, she received 55,000 e-mails, most of them negative.
Meanwhile, two publicists who were working with Suleman backed out after receiving similar death threats.
Nadya Suleman was heavily criticized after she gave birth to octuplets via in vitro fertilization (IVF). She already had six other children conceived through the same method. She was criticized for using fertility treatments and receiving state aid although she has been unemployed in the past couple of years.
All the children were conceiving through IVF using the sperm from the same donor at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Bellflower.
The mother of 14 felt o threatened that she stayed at an undisclosed location last week, before returning home. Her octuplets are currently in hospital receiving treatment.
