Forgive me for being so blunt, but I have to say this.
Schiavo's attorney needs to have everything in place to preserve Terri from that "immediate cremation," assuming she's forced to starve to death. Her body will be a crime scene situation and needs to be preserved as evidence, or they'll never be able to prove he strangled her.
Again, I hate to bring this up, but I hope someone is taking care of this. You can BET MS and his homicidal lawyer have everything in place to whisk away her body.
I wouldn't be surprised if they have a crematorium out back. < /sarcasm >
I'm hoping that authorities can step in and take custody of her poor body--it will be evidence at that point. Of course, I'm just another applicant for Sinkspur's Wacko Hall of Fame...
The Schindlers have petitioned the court (a.k.a., the Almighty Greer) to allow Terri a Catholic burial, as cremation is against her faith. He hasn't ruled yet, to my knowledge.
Michael asked for funds from Terri's rehabilitation account to have her body cremated and the ashes scattered in Pennsylvania, far, far from the family she loves. The court (a.k.a., the Almighty Greer) granted his petition and set aside $50,000 of Terri's money for that purpose (which makes you wonder why he's holding off on the Schindlers' request...he's already ruled in favor of Michael).
The State of Florida requires 48 hours after death before cremation. Again, Michael petitioned the court (a.k.a., the Almighty Greer) for permission to send her to the ovens immediately upon her death, which the court granted.
As the stench rises heavenward, I can't help but think the angels must be weeping (it's raining here today).
