Bingo! Bump!

How long will this "probe" take? Unless it is put on emergency track (meaning NOW), I don't see how it will stop further injustices by the liberal FL judiciary.
To: T'wit
Terri needs an ombudsman
And that "ombudsman" is not this Dr. Wolfson, who is already essentially on record against Terri's right to live. How can a judge name a guardian ad litem who is already biased against the "ward"? Only in FL, I guess.

Do we need a new federal law here, just because some folks won't heed the existing laws? Yes. I think we need a right to life amendment to the US Constitution spelling out absolute minimums for protection of innocent lives without implying that these are maximums.

>>They didn't mention the bit about Greer's wife being on the board of Felos' hospice, I note.
THAT would be a most serious offense if it is true. I'd even
say CRIMINAL, if Greer failed to recuse himself under that
kind of situation.
To: Budge
Greer said, he is under specific orders from the 2nd District Court of Appeal to schedule the removal of Schiavo's feeding tube. If true, that would help explain why all appeals are quickly turned down. Another abuse of power, it sounds like. Either that, or blatant corruption.
To: sweetliberty
For those who keep pointing out that MS has used none of the money for therapy or what would be considered normal care of Terri, remember that the contention of the pro-death squad is that she is not really alive anymore and hasn't been for 13 years. Allowing therapy or anything other than leaving her lying untended in her bed would be an acknowledgement that she is still alive. Any act of care would contradict that.

Still, it's a tough argument for them to support when they are at the same time talkiing about protecting Terri's privacy and forcing her to suffer by continuing to feed her. I mean, if she is already dead, she can't possibly be suffering, right? And why would they be concerned for the privacy of a dead person? Especially given the "indelicate" (to say the least) way that Michael was talking about very private matters on national television!

We've had considerable discussion over whether this was true or not. I read it in a post way early in this whole dispute, but many other people have said they have seen no information about it. It's very possible that I was misinformed.
If she was on the board, I'm sure it was before this case started. However, it would mean that she knew Felos, who has always been involved with that hospice, and that the judge therefore should have recused himself.
Someone suggested checking under her maiden name, but I don't know what it is. If anybody does, they should check the non-profit filings of the hospice, where the board members would be listed.
Where's a good detective when you really need one?!
