I was watching Oprah with my daughter, and have told her very little about this case. "He did it." That was her reaction. She thinks he is lying. I will explain more about the malpractice suit and the potassium reading which was the basis for the settlement. In other words, if he really did do it, that lawsuit (1) probably couldn't have gone forward without looking into it more, and (2) if he did do it, that lawsuit was a smokescreen and he would be liable to repay all the money and other negative consequences.
I hadn't told her about some of the doctors speculating on possible strangulation and the bone scan.
Oprah did a good job with the story. She showed quite a lot of Terri's videos and gave Terri's family a chance to tell us a little about Terri.
