MICHAEL SCHIAVO'S LEGAL FLIP-FLOP
Robert Drobot | 22 Feb 2005 | Robert Drobot

Posted on 02/22/2005 4:56:11 AM PST by Robert Drobot

......he was going spend the rest of his life comforting and caring for his beloved......

This is what the jury heard, when Michael Schiavo sought an award of lifetime compensation in the care for his disabled wife, Terri.

Very noble. Schiavo was clear. HE was going to do for Terri what HE KNEW, without equivocation, he wanted to provide to Terri.

LIFETIME care.

There was no issue from the then loving and devoted husband about his wife wanting to die; at least when the goal was winning a jury award.

Did he intentionally lie to a jury, in order to collect money - all the while knowing Terri wanted no care of any kind?

Could he actually have forgotten this life changing detail during the malpractice trial?

The lawyers defending against his lawsuit could and would have had the suit dismissed, had they known Terri's alleged wishes.

The prize was a million plus. So what harm can come from a little fudging.

Michael took the check to the bank.

Now Cometh Part II - Cutting Losses

Comes now the 'flash from the past'; 'total recall'; a 'back to the future' moment'.

As though holding hands around a table, Michael AND some of HIS biologicals have a revelation. They see Terri telling them she does not want care of any kind.

Compelled by this ethereal message, they search out a lawyer who will gleefully do their bidding. He is turn finds a judge unworthy of the name, and Terri's fate is officially decreed.

Government Administered Death by starvation. A death reserved for innocents, lacking the ability to speak in their own behalf, and that's the best part - the victim can't communicate - or so says the court - having NEVER observed the victim.

Michael stroked that malpractice jury with tales about how he was devoting his life to the care and comfort of his wife. It was enough to make one and all shed a tear. Oscar stuff, some might have said.

.......but that was before he deposited what now has the appearance of ill gotten gain.

BEHOLD THE SMOKING GUN?

Is this not the smoking gun? The legal 2x4 attorneys could/can/should be using to smack MS up-side the head, but in all these years they haven't (Have they?) used!?!?!?!?

This is the stuff of a Shakespearian play; a Hitchcock thriller. A classic tale of diabolical deceit, and a morally corrupt court facilitating the perfect murder of an innocent woman unheard and unseen.

It is Michael who managed a well timed epiphany.

It is Michael who does a legal flip-flop, which will rid himself of unwanted responsibility; unwanted commitment; unwanted celibacy/sexual contact.

He finds he must act with all of the ways and means at his disposal to meet, he says, now, the will of his beloved, his one and only love ( Yes, it's true about his fathering two kids, while his beloved lies crippled, but hey he says he's got Terri's interests at heart.)

He now knows his purpose. Have the state do to Terri what he didn't tell that jury he was going to do.

KILL TERRI

In the film Kill Bill, the gal is no longer bed ridden, and proceeds to do her own form of justice on those who sought her end.

I would be a good end to this horrific story for Terri to fully recover from whatever/whomever put her in the hospital, and watch justice have its turn at bat.

One of the many things that is so scary about this case and should concern all of us is that someone such as Michael Schiavo is allowed to be the guardian of Terri.

How many wives would want an estranged husband who has a live-in mistress, two illegitimate children, and a sadistic temper to be the one to decide if they live or not.

Also, not many people would chose to be starved to death.

Michael also had the feeding tubes of his own parents removed. I don't know how much his inheritance was. Strange that no photos of his mistress Jodi have shown up anywhere.

of all the words I've seen written on this, this is about the most concise summation of the facts. Makes it very crystal clear.

In the CourtTV poll NO is now over 51%. Still needs freeping.

...malpractice settlement....

Reading from the article...."This is the kind of guy whose wedding vows are just that - vows." -- Gary Fox, " Miami Lawyer."

I can't figure who are less credible...politicians, lawyers, or stockbrokers...

I don't know the answer to your question, but I have a question of my own:

Why didn't the insurance company demand the settlement back when it became obvious that he was not spending the money on her treatment, yet it was being spent on other things?

This seems like insurance fraud.

Can you please post a direct link to the poll?

The one you posted does not show the poll.

Thanks.

Go to post #38 and use that link. I just opened that page, but didn't click the 'news' poll.

Your right the Schiavo poll has been replaced with a question about the Blake trial.

Consider this another Terri Bump.

Yes, it seems that the Terri poll has been upstaged by the Blake trial.

Well here's a scientific poll that shows that for all the heat and light here on FR...the public in Florida wants the tube removed.

http://www.firstcoastnews.com/printfullstory.aspx?storyid=32986

......................................

By First Coast News Staff

JACKSONVILLE, FL -- According to our latest exclusive Survey USA poll, the majority of people on the First Coast think Terri Schiavo's husband should be allowed to remove her feeding tube.

Of those polled, 55% percent say the tube being to use to feed the severely brain damaged woman should be removed.

36% of those polled say Michael Schiavo shouldn't be allowed to remove it.

9% aren't sure.

Terri Schiavo has been in a vegetative state since a heart attack 15 years ago.

I went to the Court TV link, but none of the poll questions was about Terri. Where's the poll supposed to be?

Irrelevant what others think.

What I/we would like to know is where YOU stand? Do you stand with the enemy of America, or do you stand with its defenders? There is no in-between in this case.

You know where I stand.

Free our Terri! Free her NOW!
