Putting aside the evidence that Terri may have been the vistim of foul play at her hubby' hands, she was the aggrieved party who won $1,6 million-dollars to mollify her pain and suffering.

The hubby paid half the award to a scumbag lawyer who saw to it that hubby wouldn't have to blow the wad on his wife...just put her in the Hospice where she could receive minimal care and fade away. He hid the remaining money and presented himself as indigent to the state to receive government medical payments, with the lawyer's (and probably some insiders at the state offices..or their hands were tied) help. Complaints by the family were addressed by a judge who has a conflict of interest. Hubby stands to collect a large sum of insurance money upon Terri's death. She won't cooperate. He can't divorce her, and he can't relieve himself of custody--give her over to her parents--without losing his shot at megabucks.

The issue here is not right-to-die claptrap: it's an issue of criminal conduct under the rubric of "compassion".

Clearly, there is substantial evidence for this scenario. It must be investigated. Apparently, this scheme is is a regular feature sold by the hospice provider and this attorney, Falos, to "suffering families".

If the above is all BS, there is time to put it away; but the actions of the parties who stand to be indicted are telling me that there's fire under the smoke.

Terri has the right to live, her parents have the right, to care for her: some folks pay to freeze themselves hoping for a day where they can be re-animated. The allegorize, Terri is a "wanted child". There's also a price on her head.

If the husband were truly compassionate, he'd divest himself of interest, divorce Terri, and get on with his life. If, as it is stated, she is PVA, she's not suffering, and will not suffer. That's a load of crap.

If, as is countered by medical docs and testimony of folks who have worked with Terri, she is aware...this is an injustice most vile.

None of your responses to my comment have convinced me that Terri Schiavo is not in misery, and has she apparently been so for many, many years. And, none of you have convinced me that you do not delight in trying to sustain her misery.

Further, as is typical of many who comment here on this matter, you have mostly decided to attribute statements and thoughts to me which I have not made nor had. To say nothing of your propensity to label and name call without basis.

I see you all as the opposite of the 'kind souls' that you apparently think that you are.
