TERRI SCHIAVO MARCH 2005 DAILIES Fla's Til of the Hun Sets March Date to Starve Terri

Judge George Greer denied Terri's parents' Motion for a Stay to protect their daughter's life while there are still pending issues in this LIFE AND DEATH MATTER. In addition the Department of Children and Family Services made a surprise visit to the court hearing the other day and asked Judge Greer if they could approach the bench. Judge Greer denied DCF the opportunity to speak. DCF asked for 60 days to conduct a complete investigation of allegations that have surfaced in the form of a Complaint to their agency.

What was set in motion instead? On Friday, February 25th, Judge Greer REFUSED TO issue another Stay because he was "not comfortable" issuing a say to protect a Ward of the State but instead "set a date certain" (on his calendar at least, not on mine) to BEGIN THE BARBARIC, ANTI-AMERICAN, STARVATION-DEHYDRATION SLOW MURDER OF TERRI.

Attorney Gibbs for Terri's parents held a press conference after J. Greer's order that was so tastefully written to indicate that "he was giving the Schindlers until March 18th so they could "prepare for Last Rites." Attorneys Gibbs called this ruling and prior rulings "Hitler-resque". Indeed.

If Judge Greer wasn't LEGALIZING EUTHANASIA in his courtroom, why any need for Last Rites? Greer's urgency to fulfill this killing places urgency on every one of us to lobby Governor Bush, Florida's House and Florida's Senate.

A Judge in America is ordering the manner of someone's death, a disabled woman who is healthy but needs rehabilitation.

Time is short so we don't really have time to get into Greer's mind to see why he is Florida's Til of the Hun.

Greer to Rule Tomorrow on Journalists access to DCF Report:

Media outlets argue to open DCF documents in Terri Schiavo case

MITCH STACY

Associated Press

CLEARWATER, Fla. - A newspaper and television station argued Wednesday the public has a right to know what is in a Florida Department of Children & Families document that seeks to include the agency in the Terri Schiavo case.

Media General, which owns The Tampa Tribune and WFLA television, sued to get access to the document in which the agency is asking to get involved in the court battle over the fate of the severely brain-damaged woman.

DCF attorneys opposed opening the documents to the public, citing a need to protect the privacy of witnesses even if they are not named in the petition.

Terri Schiavo, 41, is at the center of a life-or-death legal battle between her husband and parents. She suffered severe brain damage 15 years ago and Pinellas Circuit Court Judge George Greer has granted Michael Schiavo permission to disconnect the feeding tube keeping her alive on March 18.

Court-appointed doctors have ruled she is in a persistent vegetative state and her husband, Michael Schiavo, contends his wife would not want to be kept alive artificially in that condition. Her parents argue their daughter had no such death wish and counter with their own medical experts who say Terri Schiavo could get better with rehabilitation and say despite her brain damage she laughs, cries and interacts with them.

Media General attorney Gregg Thomas told Greer that a balance must be struck between the public's right to know about the high-profile legal case and privacy rights of those involved in a DCF investigation. Attorneys involved in the case have said the agency is looking into reports that Terri Schiavo was abused and wants Greer to issue a 60-day stay on the tube's removal while DCF investigates.

"The greater access there is, the more the people can judge the actions of the DCF, judge the actions of the governor and judge your honor's actions," Thomas said.

Attorneys for Bob and Mary Schindler said the family did not object with opening the document, but prefer it stay closed.

"They will do a better job investigating this if it remains confidential," said David Gibbs, the Schindlers attorney.

Deborah Bushnell, an attorney for Michael Schiavo, said he did not have a position on the issue.

"Mr. Schiavo has nothing to hide on this matter," she said.

Greer said he would rule on Thursday.

Meanwhile Wednesday, the Schindlers filed a motion asking Greer to drop his February 2000 order that Terri Schiavo's feeding tube should be removed. They argued the judge improperly discounted testimony of a witness who told of how upset Terri Schiavo had been with the case of Karen Ann Quinlan and her parents' decision to remove her from life support.

Quinlan's parents waged an internationally watched court battle to disconnect their daughter from life support after a 1975 overdose. The Quinlan's won the court's permission to disconnect their daughter from a respirator, but she did not die until a decade later.

Greer based his ruling that Terri Schiavo would not want to be kept alive artificially on testimony from Michael Schiavo and his relatives that she had told them at various times her thoughts on not wanting to be kept on artificial life support.

The Schindler's latest legal filing is among 16 pending motions that the Schindlers hope to have heard in an attempt to block the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube.

The issue has become politically charged and Gov. Jeb Bush has said he is searching for a way to keep Terri Schiavo alive. DCF's attempt to intervene in the case came last month as Greer moved to set a date for the tube's removal.

It's there for the using ... and I bet OJ Greer's secretary has been handed the job of email reader, and is probably ready to tear her hair out and scream.

Let's remember, there are dozens and dozens of people working in quiet support positions and handling reams of paperwork and hundreds of phone calls and emails in the courts, state agencies, county and municipal agencies, hospitals, hospices, doctor's practices, Jodi's insurance agency ... you just never know where God will plant the seed of conscience nor who will be provoked and sickened enough to rise up and turn away from the sewer that is this situation and speak out.

Pray for righteous and decent people .. that hearts may be touched irrevocably by the cruelty and inhumanity they've witnessed and that they be given courage so that the world finally sees the truth. PRayers for Terri!

I don't know if anyone anwered your questions, but here is a short summary.

She may or may not have bulimia. She supposedly weighed about 115 pounds and was 5 ft 3 in. Sounds pretty normal to me. Evidently, no doctor had diagnosed her as having an eating disorder.

She didn't tell her parents, but she did tell her brother and her friends that she wanted to divorce her husband.

On the night she collapsed, she had been out with a girlfriend. The girlfriend thought she should not go home. Terri thought it would be ok and she would pretend to be asleep. Late that night after the husband came home, he called Terri's Dad and told him she had collapsed. I believe he told him that he thought she wasn't breathing. The Dad had to tell him to call 911. Michael had not called the paramedics. Her brother Bobby lived in the same apartment complex and rushed over. He said he found Michael sitting on the couch and Terri collapsed on the floor. Michael evidently did not try to perform CPR, although he knew how to.

A bone scan was conducted about a year after she was in her condition. Evidently, she had a lot of pain. It turned out she had multiple broken bones all over her body that her parents didn't know anything about. They did not even find out about the bone scan until years later. Michael would not let them see the medical records.
