Does this case free Jack Kevorkian. He was put in jail for killing people who were on video stating their true intentions of wanting to die and had written living wills?. The state is doing the same exact thing except they do not have video of Terri saying I want to die or a living will. He is in jail while Greer and these other Judges are sitting in the sun.

What a crazy world.

The law also force feeds convicts that are on hunger strikes. In effect forcing medical care on them against their wishes. The judges rationalize each circumstance. You'll be hard pressed to find "the value and dignity of human life" as an underlying principle in the law. It's about process. The law has elevated process above substance.
