I think the people who keep posting these 450,000 posts about Schiavvo have already tried and convicted her husband without giving him any benefot of the doubt.
Some day many of them will face the torture of taking away feeding tubes or shutting down artificial means of sustaining life to their relatives. This woman is young so they wish to save her . How many Comatose elderly or cancer victims are starved every day when feeding tubes are removed? When you face this with your mother or father how will you feel if your sister or brother accuses you of murder.
That has been my gut feeling since hearing this yesterday.
HOAX...is right!
Whoa...never thought of that one.Hmmmmm.
Does the statute of limitations allow the prosecution of this alleged crime?
Not if he wants her dead. He already spent $400,000 on legal fees trying to kill her (money ment for Terri's rehab)
Killing your wife slowly by starvation so you can marry your shack up honey and "legitimize" your illegitimate children is offensive.
He pretty well convicts himself if one reads everything he's said and done.

Deliberate starvation and dehydration of someone is murder. Removing food or water from someone who dies of something else before they starve or dehydrate is not murder.
And yes, there are a lot of unacknowledged murderers out there. But it would be better for them to admit that they were conned into doing a very bad thing and seek forgiveness, than for them to pretend that what they did is really "okay".
I wonder what Jodi thinks about his turning down the money?
I thought that too. Gloria Allred saw cameras and ran for the light. She'd run the vacuum to suck out a fetus, why would she give a sh!t about Terri except for the fact this is becoming a bigger story every day and she was missing out on the on-air face time
I am offended that felos said that. Very offended.
You don't understand the meaning of the word "offensive", you bottom-feeding shyster. Your client tried to murder his wife, and botched it. Michael doesn't give a rat's ass about any amount of money...he is scared to death that Terri will one day regain her ability to speak, the cat will be out of the bag, and he will go to prison for a long, long time. He wants her dead, and he wants the evidence destroyed through the cremation process. By the way...why aren't there 10,000 or so outraged Floridians raising hell outside of Greer's home?
Usually no statute of limitations on capital murder. What about attempted murder.
If Mikey goes to jail (life/30yrs/what have you), the inmate population may arrange for his execution.
The Shadow Knows...
"Michael has said over and over again that this case is not about money for him," Felos said. "It's about carrying out his wife's wishes. There is no amount of money anyone can offer that will cause him to turn his back on his wife."
Gag me with a spoon.
Yes, that Felos guy is exceptionally offensive. Time to pull his feeding tube ~ without a client that's what he faces!
The Shadow would know how to deal with the likes of Michael Schiavo...
Actually, that would be perfect, he could get him to confess. Anyone here learn the secret to cloud mens minds in the orient? (Any leftover protozoaic extract?)
My Dad died nine months ago of sepsis. It was not only horrific for him, but for those of us who stayed at his side. The infection ravaged every system in his body.
He was dying, and when his liver, and kidneys totally shut down, the doctors, with our agreement, stopped giving him TPN (total parenteral nutriton) through his central line.
Basically, when the calories were spent, so was he.
His cause of death was listed as sepsis.
Terri Schiavo is not dying. She is not in physical pain. If they remove her feeding tube, the cause of her death will not be sepsis, cancer, or some other disease. The cause of her death will be starvation.
I just haven't crossed that line where I think that we should starve, or euthanize those who some my deem inconvenient or undesirable.
