Add to that, that the judge ordered not only pulled her feeding tube, but also that no one could try to give her water by mouth.

Which turns Judge Greer's order into one of assisted suicide, a crime punishable as manslaughter under Florida law, I believe.

The right to die law allows disconnection of a feeding tube, not being deprived of food and water by mouth.

That part of the order should subject Judge Greer to criminal prosecution.
