We are watching a cruel, inhumane MURDER on television. We are being forced to watch a snuff film. We are being force fed a policy shift in our nation by people of the worst ilk. This is a great EVIL. I cannot believe that, with all the evidence that should give her the benefit of the doubt, we are seeing this happen in America in 2005. If this is what we have become, we no longer deserve what we have. God should rip it away and plow us under.
The Judicial Branch is out of control and must be reminded of what their purpose and job is in our government. All judges involved in this case need to be impeached and thrown into prison!!
I actually heard that Judge Greer roomed with Jim Morrison in South Florida while in college.
Can you insert the more interesting features of Michael's dating history?
The court, in 1997 when Michael announced he was 'engaged' should have immediately conducted a guardianship hearing and transfered Terri to State guardianship. Because of this failure, we are in the present situation.
Questions that need to be immediately considered:
(1) Why did Michael choose to 'ignore' her wishes for nearly 7 years until 1997 when he announced he was'engaged' to Jodi Centonze and 'suddenly' remembered the conversation about life support with Terri from years before?
Respondent answer would most likely rationalize that it took that long before Michael Schiavo realized there was 'no hope for recovery...'
(2) However, the 1992 malpractice suit for $20 million was based on the premise/conclusion that Terri would NOT recover and she would require constant medical care for the remainder of her life estimated by Michael Shiavo and his laywers to be 51 years(which is the normal life expectancey)...Where were her WISHES at that time?
(3) The court, in 1997 when Michael announced he was 'engaged' should have immediately conducted a guardianship hearing and transfered Terri to State guardianship, at a minimum because of the obvious conflict of interest on the part of Michael Shiavo.
The court system failed to act at that point, and that is a major factor on why we are at the point we are today.
(4) Guardianship, by law and practice, is determined to be given to that person who is most heavily 'biased' in favor of the disabled person. Under most conditions this would be the spouse. However, most prudent courts, if during the guardianship period, the appointed guardian by circumstances or accident tilts the 'bias' away from the interest of the person so guarded, would conduct an immediate review, and at a minimum, transfer guardianship to the appropriate State agency.
An additional thought, as I presented it to my class at the university yesterday and I posed the question to the students:
If Terri Schiavo's medical condition, feeding tube et al, was exactly the same as it is, age 25, etc. with the single exception that she was not 'mentally' disabled but had all other functions; and she expressed a desire to have the feeding tube removed and wanted to die, what would we do?
Of course the answer is clear, she would not be allowed to make that 'choice' and would be sent for counselling, etc.

Homicide maybe?
Conflict of interest in Greer's case.
Look I wanted them to find otherwise as well but no laws have been broken by these judges. They looked at the evidence and made a decision based on it. I'm all for changing the laws regarding people in Terri's condition to avoid this in the future.
Isn't it Felos who has links to the Hospice and not Greer?
March 2005 - A nation loses it's mind.
Actually, according to a chart, Greer has taken money from a number of parties interested in this case, Felos in particular.
Oh, and Greer accepted hearsay testimony. That's a no-no.
I saw Brian Schiavo on TV making the rounds of the talk shows. He sticks up for his brother Michael.
Is the whole Schiavo family like this? A bunch of heartless killers?
If that's true then I'm all for it in his case.
Now I wonder if thats why Felos got off the board of directors of florida suncoast, the owning body of woodland hospice where she is at. or did he get replaced to due a time limit?
The bottom line for me is that Greer is really the only judge who has dealt with this case and other courts have dealt with technicalities of the trial only.
Jodi Centonze --so this is the name of the idiot mistress of Michael Schiavo. Bet she's been instigating the death process (killing) of Terri for many years.
Doesn't the birdbrain realize Michael will get rid of her too when she becomes an inconvenience?
These OJ and Peterson types never really change.
Whatsoever you do, to the least of My brothers, that you do unto Me.
Are you $hi*ting me? I knew that Morrison went to college in FL for like a year or two before moving to CA.
We are watching the abortion of a disabled woman.
