Three other judges watched the tapes and read the testimony and looked at the test results. They talk about it in the 2DCA ruling I linked to.

Three other judges watched the tapes and read the testimony and looked at the test results. They talk about it in the 2DCA ruling I linked to.

Since those judges were not in court, as a presiding judge, to direct the questioning of the "expert" witness, a brand new trial would have been a good idea.

It's quite likely that the presiding judge, Greer, could not see the subtle changes in Terri's face when her mom came close to her.

Most of us, who have been in love, can recognize the "love" look in Terri's eyes and see the softening of her face. Terri is not PVS and it's ridiculous to say, as Cranford did, that Terri has a flat eeg. She is at least functioning at the level of an animal and, most likely, at some higher level..

Here's a nice "one-two" punch that can be used by husbands who want their wives dead.

  1. Greer ordered that Terri's tube be removed at a certain time. He didn't rule that Michael could remove the tube.
  2. Michael was not in the room when Terri's tube was removed. I think that was arranged so that no one could ask if Michael was ultimately responsible for ending Terri's life against her wishes.

Husband doesn't "order" starvation. Husband isn't around when starvation is begun. Bingo--husband's hands are clean.*

Here's hoping the Kill-Terri people can live with themselves in a few years when the facts come out and we learn that Terri's rights and the applications of the latest medical findings were denied her.

*I found it interesting that Felos decided to spread around the guilt a bit, by publicly thanking the ACLU and others for helping Michael in his cause.

This is sort of like Murder on the Orient Express -- there are so many people involved in her killing that you can't find the guilty one.
