"The court" you speak of so highly consists of a judge, George Greer, with extreme conflicts-of-interest. There was no jury, no panel, no compromise.

I believe strongly in living wills and an individual's right to choose their own death process. However, when we move into the gray area of disabled individuals with no living wills, it is critical that the judge should be impartial and have no affiliations whatsoever with the involved parties, including pro-euthanasia organizations.

This case is not representational of the pro-life v. pro-death debate. This situation does, however, provide a glimpse into the corrupt world of the death-mill hospices.

Remember the lesson we have learned from so many recent events in history: If you want to fathom the motivations behind unbending positions of corruption, just "follow the money".

The appeals court disagrees:

Despite our decision that the appropriate standard of review is abuse of discretion, this court has closely examined all of the evidence in this record. We have repeatedly examined the videotapes, not merely watching short segments but carefully observing the tapes in their entirety. We have examined the brain scans with the eyes of educated laypersons and considered the explanations provided by the doctors in the transcripts.
