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.

I have asked that question myself many times. The Insurance Company NOR the Jury certainly didn't award that 1.7 million for Schiavo to lavish on himself and use a part to get to KILL his wife. He's a LIAR. He received those funds on a LIE. In fact a series of lies. He's a FRAUD and he has perpetrated a FRAUD on the court!! I wasn't aware that Insurance Companies condoned this kind of action.

The poll have been removed Robert. I tried all four categories and none had to do with Terri.

I guess they changed the poll, but kept the same link. When I posted it, it was the Terri poll.

That and I guess just not being bothered to listen to the facts. It makes me sick tho that people think someone, anyone, should be STARVED and DEHYDRATED to death!! It's SHOCKING to me. It's not humane for a dog or cat, I know, I have worked in animal rescue and was our local SPCA President and a cruelty inspector in my small city. We SEIZED animals for no shelter, food or water.? But it is okay for a human being? What horsechit!!

What is wrong with the people that live in Pinellas County then?

Apparently, they don't hold their government accountable. While there, I tried to on different issues -- none were life and death. It is very difficult; the Pinellas county legal infrastructure is stubbornly and sickeningly unjust.

But I think the disregard for injustice is reaching critical mass and will crack if given the right catalyst. This may be it, or the start of it.

But ultimately, this is about saving an innocent life, not about straightening out a bunch of wild eyed, arrogant lawyers, judges and cops.

They change topics.

I just happened to hear on CourtTV when a Savannah Guthrie stated during the newsbreak that Terri is in a vegetative state. But at least they had Terri's sister comment on Michael not remembering her "wish to die" until after he got the money.

I keep saying that too. How can people be convicted and sent to prison for starving animals, yet some are pulling this same thing off with people?

Horrifying the depths we've fallen to.

Michael Schiavo will have to answer to the Good Lord for his neglect and abuse of Terri...cause Terri sure ain't finding justice from our court system!

You know, just reading this about the g-tube. It is no different than the peritoneal dialysis tube that our oldest daighter had (before she switched back to hem). It was inserted in her tummy and had a cap on the end taped up and curled up till next "oil exchange" (as she called it)

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.

I think they should pull her feeding tube. If she wasn't a vegetable, she would get better, get up and beat the living crap out of him AND her and they'd be the ones needing a feeding tube.


/sarcasm (after the feeding tube thingy)

In addition, he surely wasn't awarded that money to pay a lawyer to help him murder her.
