More Revealing Info About Mike Schiavo 3-20-5

THEY NEVER SPOKE OF THIS! Yet now Michael claims that Terri's wish was to die of starvation and dehydration, and the infamous Judge George Greer rubber stamps it. Why?

A case for Criminal Investigation of Michael Schiavo:

1) Nurses' testimony: Heidi Law, Carla Sauer-Iyer, Carolyn Johnson have been ignored and dismissed without hearing; each testified that Michael was abusive to Terri and may have attempted to kill her by insulin injection and attempts to induce pneumonia by turning the thermostat in her room to 64 degrees.

2) Michael Baden, top forensic pathologist in country and interviewed on Fox News National Television broadcast October 25, 2003 on Terri's bone scan and injuries states that:

a) Terri's injuries are not consistent with a heart attack; no cardiac evidence to support it

b) Extremely rare for potassium imbalance on woman her age and in her good health

c) Injuries are consistent with severe trauma possibly caused by a beating

d) The injuries in medical records warrant an immediate investigation

3) Dr. William Hammesfahr, Nobel prize nominee and neurologist testified that Terri's neck injuries are consistent with only one type of injury: that of strangulation.

4) Terri's doctor, Dr. Gambone resigned; he had previously testified Terri would die within a few days of starvation/dehydration. Terri has an obvious will to live.

5) Michael has enlisted the services of a new doctor, Stanton Tripodis, who has 5 malpractice suits against him. Clearly, Michael is attempting to provide sub-standard care for his wife.

Case no. 97007946C1 filed 11-25-97 Case no. 94003739C1 filed 6-27-94 Case no. 95000873C1 filed 2-14-95 Case no. 96001434C1 filed 3-6-96 Case no. 98002289C1 filed 4-7-98

6) Michael is committing adultery by living with another woman who has already born one child with another on the way, thereby creating an obvious conflict of interest as guardian.

7) Michael has committed both perjury (2 counts) and insurance fraud by promising to provide care and therapy for his wife in exchange for the court award of 1.2 million dollars in 1993. No care has ever been provided to Terri.

8) Michael Schiavo has also prevented Terri from undergoing a barium swallow test, a procedure necessary to ascertain the consistency of foods able to be taken by mouth.

9) Co-conspirator George J. Felos combined and conspired with Michael Schiavo to arrange for Terri's "free" stay at Hospice Woodside as part of an "exit protocol" designed to advance Felos' self-perceived messianic mission of "helping" incapacitated people to die by categorizing them as "terminal," warehousing them, and depriving them of therapy and rehabilitation services. (Attorney Felos is Director of Florida Right to Die and has testified that he can ascertain a person's desire to die by "looking into their eyes and letting their spirit speak directly to him")

10) Investigate Insurance company established in Jan 2001 at the home of Michael Schiavo and his girlfriend/fiancee Jody Centonze. (Jerger and Centonze Insurnace Agency Inc.) Michael is listed on the Board of Directors for the corporation. Note: Insurance is deliberately misspelled in the State of Florida Corporate filing, possibly to avoid investigation.

11) Michael continues to deny Terri the right to receive Holy Communion as part of her Catholic and civil rights.

I am just so furious about this whole thing I can barely stand to hear about it at this point. This woman's only crime was marrying the wrong guy. I thought my ex-husband was a jerk, but this HINO makes him seem like a saint in comparison.

Hammesfahr was nominated by his congressman for a nobel prize, He isn't really a nominee. Or an official nominee. We have to be careful with throwing that phrase around.

As for him being disciplined in 2003- it was for overcharging a patient. That's it! He charged someone for services he didn't do.

He's still a well known neurologist.

More BS?

This isn't BS.


before our eyes we are seeing state sponsored murder. We are seeing the tyranny of a runaway judiciary. Our congress and the president have intervened, but their requests for a fresh look at evidence were ignored, shattering balance of power. Do you think it's BS that Terri cannot even be given communion by a catholic priest? Her parents cannot give her an ice cube.

Jeb Bush and Jaywalking !!!

If a little baby crawled out into a busy highway and sat in
the middle of the road, I'm quite sure that Governor Bush
would risk a jaywalking ticket to rush into the street and
save the child even if the Don't Walk sign was flashing !!!

Terri is an innocent and helpless child right now. Therefore, she
desparately needs someone to bravely risk arrest for jaywalking
to save her life from that evil mob of monsters who are blatantly
attempting to murdere her ... in plain view of the entire world !!!

Jaywalk NOW Jeb !!!

Becareful of lists like this, fact checking matters. The last point is wrong, Terri received the Viaticum the day they pulled the tube and started starving her to death.

Number 7 on your hit list is the most interesting and indicative of some of the 'True' intentions in play here.

During the malpractice trial M Sciavo or his experts testified that Terri's expected life span in the condition she was in at that point (Such condition unchanged up to the present?) was an additional 51 years. This number was used in the determination of the award amount and it would appear that, by doing so, and accepting the actual award he was committing to the use of these funds for maintenance of Terri for a period approximating 51 additional years.

It is a fact that, after the determination of the award and actual payment of these funds he then took steps to shorten the maintenance period by removing any support and ceasing all therapies. At the same time, and after the malpractice trial and award of maintenance, he then recalled Terri's expressed desire to not live further in a vegetative state.

On the one hand he sues and collects money based on an expressed commitment (And monetary requirement) to maintain Terri for 51 years while, on the other, he collects the money and then takes steps to shorten the period of required maintenance to as short a time as possible.

At the minimum, if I was the insurer or the person who paid these damages I would demand repayment of the amount awarded in contemplation of long term care to the extent that M Sciavo actually shortened it through his actions.

IMO, this inconsistency only casts further serious doubt on his assertion that Terri would wish to have her life shortened. It is an obvious lie of convenience that underpins all of the rulings by Greer.

Well, charging someone for services not performed really establishes his credibility and integrity with me. (/sarcasm)

Check this out...

Doctors for Michael Schiavo have said that an MRI and PET are not necessary for Terri because PVS is primarily a “clinical” diagnosis, that is, one arrived at on the basis of examination of the patient, rather than by relying on tests. And the neurologists I have spoken to agree on the clinical nature of the diagnosis, while insisting that advanced tests nonetheless are a necessary part of it. But the star medical witness for Michael Schiavo, Dr. Ronald Cranford of the University of Minnesota, has repeatedly dismissed calls for MRI testing, and his opinion has prevailed.

Dr. Cranford was the principal medical witness brought in by Schiavo and Felos to support their position that Terri was PVS. Judge Greer was obviously impressed by Cranford’s résumé: Cranford travels throughout the country testifying in cases involving PVS and brain impairment. He is widely recognized by courts as an expert in these issues, and in some circles is considered “the” expert on PVS. His clinical judgment has carried the day in many cases, so it is relevant to examine the manner in which he arrived at his judgment in Terri’s case. But before that, one needs to know a little about Cranford’s background and perspective: Dr. Ronald Cranford is one of the most outspoken advocates of the “right to die” movement and of physician-assisted suicide in the U.S. today.

In published articles, including a 1997 op-ed in the Minneapolis–St. Paul Star Tribune, he has advocated the starvation of Alzheimer’s patients. He has described PVS patients as indistinguishable from other forms of animal life. He has said that PVS patients and others with brain impairment lack personhood and should have no constitutional rights. Perusing the case literature and articles surrounding the “right to die” and PVS, one will see Dr. Cranford’s name surface again and again. In almost every case, he is the one claiming PVS, and advocating the cessation of nutrition and hydration.

National Review

More at the link, this isn't the first diagnosis he has made like this. Their so called medical expert is a nutcase.

Did she, in fact? I heard that, but i wasn't sure. Last time, she was denied it. (November 2003)
