The statement made by Mr. Richard LaBelle in this article must be some sort of cover up too. Mr. LaBelle must be afraid of something to have made this recent statement, explaining the reason for his stonewalling.
My Reply: Something is definately "up" with this Advocacy Center. I e-mailed them back and said, without giving any details can you at least give me a percentage of how far along the investigation is. Is it 50% complete, 80% Complete? he answers this question in the e-mail below.
Here is the e-mail I received on September 27, 2005
From Paul Finch
Finch, Paul [paulf@advocacycenter.org]
Hello Ms. XXX-
As a Program Specialist here at the Advocacy Center, I am only able to provide what information I have been instructed by Management to provide and am not personally involved in the investigation. The only % status I am aware of, is that the investigation and case is still open and the main attorney involved is still gathering expert testimony and opinion. I wish I was able to provide more detail Ms. XXX.
Board members e-mail contacts are not provided to staff to distribute, but many of the members were originally cc'd on your first e-mail and those Board members can relate your concerns about the Schiavo investigation to others on the Board that you requested.
Why not send her home with the parents? Fifteen years of institution tub feeding is way too long.
scoop1 has at least three more stories up there today, since I last looked.

Besides the fact that it is a 4:3 ruling against Watts (better than the other cases for Terri), the first one has an interesting part about Watt's filing:
" Watts also took issue with the fact that court orders only spoke to the feeding tube, but that parties removed both the feeding tube and also denied natural food, the latter a felony under chapter 825 state laws."
I think this is an excellent point he makes.
