Does anyone know how old Terri's parents were at the time of Terri's collapse? If they were 60 yrs or older, then it could be possible to charge Michael with exploitation of them, when he got them to sign sole guardianship over to him.

Also I would think it could apply to Michael or Felos or Greer or Lazzara for the way they have knowingly treated Terri. See 825.103 below:
