No Florida law recognizes this situation as murder, therefore your question is invalid and denotes a serious misunderstanding of the case. Michael Schiavo is Terri's guardian, and under Florida law, he has the right to discontinue her treatment, and yes, the feeding tube is considered treatment under Florida law. The reason it made it to the courts was due to the parents, God bless them, fighting for Terri's life. I do not blame them. The brick wall they ran into was Florida law.....period. The word murder that you seem to enjoy throwing around is irrelevant to this case, but may sum up your personal feelings on the matter. Your personal feelings will not save her.

No personal feelings involved in asking about the Florida laws in question. Another poster has provided the information I was interested.
