So why not give it up, leave Terri's feeding tube in, let her parents care for her? After all, he is living with another woman now and they have two children.

Because he would then leave himself open to possible lawsuits and/or charges of abusing Teri by denying her therapy for all these years

If there is proof he tried to off her, why didn't the defendants in the malpractice suit WHO ARE DOCTORS, after all, use that as a defense before they paid out all that money?

I feel certain his actions will be scrutinized in civil lawsuits, at the least. His motive for withholdling treatment and now trying to kill Terri is simply to avoid srutiny of his past actions. Those actions are off-the-chart in their degree of bad faith, and their incompatibility with his role as Terri's guardian.

From what the article says it would appear that he did provide her therapy for some period of time.

In the beginning, they say, Schiavo was relentless in his search for his wife's cure. She underwent various therapies.
