Contrary to AP, Terri Schiavo is not comatose or vegatative

Yes, Schiavo boasted years ago "I'm going to be rich!" He is angry that it has taken him so long to murder Terri and get the money though. He HATES Terri and delights in her last-day suffering. He actually sees HIMSELF as the victim for all the trouble she has caused HIM for the past 13 years!!!!

He is a brilliant criminal -- more diabolical than Doyle (Sherlock Holmes) could have ever visualized. Truth is stranger than fiction!!!!

Except for one thing: there are three others who will probably have proof of his having committed murder. I would be surprised if they can all go ten more years without any of them turning on each other.

Did Doyle ever devise a story where the criminal had the government commit his crime for them? I don't think so, but I am no authority by no means on Doyle.

Sherlock Holmes said: "When one has examined all the possibilities, and only one remains viable, then that one must be the truth." (Not exact words, but the meaning is consistent.)

I'm not positive, but I believe he did actually. If I weren't getting tired and ready for bed I'd see if I could find Doyle's stories on-line. I expect they've probably been Gutenberged.

Oh well, at least Doyle's novels made more sense than some of Agatha Christi's writings. Ever seen Toward Zero?

Why would they turn on each other when they need to protect each other? Actually the former series "Matlock" had an episode once on that very topic, but I of course do not recall the details.

They won't all need to protect each other once Terri's dead. What they will need is for the others to keep quiet. And of course, who keeps quiet better than the dead? Remember, all three members of the Schiavo Triumvirate are quite capable of committing murder if it suits their interest.

Kangaroo courts and the Executive Power / Terri's will to live
10/18/03 -- Jeb's Emails to FR poster, summer, today, re: Terri. (And, a Message to Michael Shiavo)

To: Lawdoc; dixiegrrl; supercat; Pegita

Rumours have been flying aroun the internet and people are getting things mixed up. This summary on one page seems to be the most accurate.

"Judge George Greer: Ruler of the Kangaroo Court set on killing Terri Schiavo. Impartial? Not in the least! Worked side by side as county commissioner with Barbara Sheen Todd (county commissioner) for eight YEARS. Barbara Sheen Todd is on the board of the hospice. Also, Judge Greer's fellow judge, Judge John Lenderman is the brother of Martha Lenderman (also on the hospice board! See the Hospice Board members! Greer accepted as the basis of his rulings, the questionable testimony of Michael Schiavo (and his family) that Terri would wish to be killed, yet Michael never stated that before he got about a Million Dollars to care for Terri forever. Greer also accepted as the basis of his rulings, the "opinion" of a third doctor who just happens to be the brother of a close associate of George Felos, right-to-kill attorney, and very significantly, former CHAIRMAN of the hospice board! If there ever was a rigged court, Judge Greer's is it!"

The war for Terri Schiavo's life- some links

Ok. Sorry. Yes she is conscious but Jeb needs to do something straightaway as she has gone without food or water since Oct. 18 at 8AM.

Jeb has the duty to uphold the laws of Florida. He has been notified that a murder is taking place in his state on his watch, to a defensless diabled person. She is being starved and dehydrated against her will, upon the false testimony that she is brain dead and wants to die. She is not either.

This case has reminded me to once again for about the fiftieth time, let my family know that under no circumstances ought aritifical means be used to keep me alive.

Really? Any and all artifical means? Suppose you had throat cancer as a friend of mine. She was unable to take food or water by mouth and had to have a tube much like Terri. Other than the tube, she led a perfectly normal active life. Another friend relied on dialysis for many years, but graduated from college, married, and raised a family. Both of these people would have died without artificial intervention. Now, do you still stand firmly by your statement?

Maybe he could just get a divorce

With a divorce he won't get the $$$ and won't have the power he obviously (imo) craves over her life and death. He also risks her getting better which let the cat out of the bag on why she collapsed 13 years ago. He would also give up the right to have her immediately cremated so no autopsy can be done. Nope, he MUST remain married to her.

_ Nov. 1992: Terri's husband, Michael, wins malpractice suit that accused doctors of misdiagnosing his wife; jury awards more than more than $700,000 for her care, Michael receives an additional $300,000.

I've not seen it answered anywhere, but what was the malpractice? The doctors assumed her heart stopped from low potassium; is the potassium in question or what? Other doctors say her full body xray at the time showed multiple trauma and healed boned fractures that were inconsistant with possibly falling when she "mysteriously" collasped. Her friends claimed she wanted a divorce because he mentally abused her, her family says he physically abused her. I'm thinking this may be related but we'll never know especially after she's cremated.

"The settlement came from a malpractice suit filed by Michael Schiavo against Terri's doctors, who failed to detect the low potassium levels that caused her heart attack."

There has to be more to it than that. Bottom line is he only sued the doctors because they didn't detect the potassium level AFTER the fact? Them detecting it would not have changed her condition. Seems he had his eyes on the money back then too. My question would be what else the doctors failed to detect especially with that full body xray showing old fractures.
