Here's the Florida Law Allowing DCF to Take Terri

Florida Statutes | 3/23/05 | Tomahawk

Greer is into Scientology....that's his problem...he's nuts...and very evil....

Hmmmm. So, DCF can go in on an emergency basis and remove Terri. They must get the caregiver or guardian's permission unless he/she a threat to Terri.

The issue must then come before a judge. For some reason, all the judicial motions seem to get funneled into Greer's court. However, in this case, Greer appointed himself guardian concerning the issue of removal of the feeding tube, right? So, if Greer is the threat to Terri's life, he can't preside over the DCF case.

For this to work in the long run, DCF better have its ducks in a row concerning the abuse issues. If not, Terri will be back in the same position in short order.

concerning DCF which specifically seems to not require court permission


I agree. If they are going in on the emergency part - they can't wait until tomorrow. Where is the emergency then? It has to be now! Please God - sooner rather than later!

I wouldn't want to play those odds.

Agreed about the uncertainty of her state after 6 days, but she endured six days before with no long-term effects. Waiting obviously is not ideal, but if they take her now, they may well be forced to relinquish her 24 hours later. This may be her last chance. Jumping the gun may blow it for her. I don't know. I'm just guessing. I do hope they are coordinating things with the Schindlers.

I ran into two of them hiking up to Mt. Whitney in California. At 14,000 feet the air is thinner, but they argued with me that less oxygen has no effect on a properly thinking individual.

Why can't a new guardian - her parents - take her OUT OF FLORIDA.

[NCC-1701]

With all the jurisdictional problems involved in this case, it makes you wonder WHO IN THE HE!! IS IN CHARGE IN FLORIDA? Continued prayers for Terri, her parents, brother and sister, and her friends. Govenor Bush, end this travesty now, please.

Michael is her natural guardian by virtue of marriage. The parents have petitioned to remove Michael as guardian, but this has been denied by Greer.

[realpatriot]

How the hell can it be viewed as the state police "protecting" Terri as she dies??????????

With protection like that, I'll take my chances on my own!

[presently no screen name]

I know that - been following this for 2 years. I'm saying when/if they get her out of there - perhaps her new guardians will be her parents and then they can take her out of florida. All that being said - I'm watching her parents on TV - doesn't sound like Jeb can do anything. Here I am waiting for the Great Escape and now doesn't look anything will happen.

[who knows what evil?]

I knew about the church and his political status...I was just wondering if he had any other 'ciricular activities'.

<<<Hmmmm. So, DCF can go in on an emergency basis and remove Terri. They must get the caregiver or guardian's permission unless he/she a threat to Terri.<<<<

Why would the DCF need a guardian/caregiver permission to come in on the emergency order?

Seems to me that statute was designed to protect someone from their guardian/caretaker.

[snarkytart]

e) Notice. --Notice of the filing of the emergency protective services petition and a copy of the petition must be given to the vulnerable adult, to that person's spouse, to that person's guardian, if any, to legal counsel representing the vulnerable adult, and, when known, to adult children or next of kin of the vulnerable adult. Such notice must be given at least 24 hours before any hearing on the petition for emergency protective services.

On the emergency statute no permission is needed from MS.
At least that is what it looks like to me.

"Greer can't do that." He can and continues to do so in Floriduh. That state is still to dangerous to even drive through.

[nimbysrule]

He is obviously insane and meglomaniacal. Who is going to enforce any contempt order this lunatic issues against the Governor and state police - him and what army??

[MHGinTN]

Then let the judge enfoce such asinine ruling while DCF investigates and the State Police stand guard. No contest ... but that presupposes a governor with cajones and thick skin.

[nimbysrule]

Turley is best disregarded as an authority on much of anything except how to be an apologist for the rule of judges. This madness with endless appeals, etc. has to stop.

[nimbysrule]

They are very, very dangerous. I knew that Clearwater, FLA is the US Scientology HQ, but didn't know exactly how into it Greer is. That explains a lot. The Satanic "Church" of Scientology and its zombies are perfectly ready, willing and able to plan and execute a fiendishly clever criminal conspiracy to execute a disable person. They do not like untermenschen.
