The jury shorted Terri $2.8 million on the settlement and the quality of life has suffered to the point where she would want to be dead. The jury held her 70% responsible for her own condition and lowered the settlement. He had no idea that would happen when he gave testimony.

Interesting logic, and a point of view I'd not heard articulated before. Might be somewhat compelling if Terri's husband had spent the $700K she was supposed to receive on her care, and only sought to end her care when the money ran out. But when at least $300K has been spent on a lawyer who's trying to get her killed, it's clear that the $700K hasn't been spent for her care or rehabilitation.

Her parents publically told the murdering husband that he could have ALL the money if he'd just divorce her and they (her parents and her siblings) said they would foot her bills and care for her. Her husband wants her dead to finish off the job he originally tried 13 years ago as evidenced by the X-Rays of her injuries sustained. The judge has a conflict of interest in his own personal financial gain in the matter (hospice). Terry Shiavo is being murdered.
