Jon R. Thogmartin, M.D., District Chief Medical Examiner 10900 Ulmerton Rd., Largo FL 33778 Telephone #. (727) 582-6800 Fax # (727) 582-6820 mailto:wpellan@co.pinellas.fl.us
Dear Dr. Thogmartin:
When Terri Schiavo dies, the potential exists that a crime will be covered up by her planned cremation without autopsy. That potential crime is NOT the issue at the center of the present controversy, but the yet unsubstantiated allegation that an assault led to her condition in the first place.
It has been reported in the press that Michael Schiavo intends to cremate Terri Schiavo immediately upon her death.
According to the Medical Examiner's department policy posted at: http://www.co.pinellas.fl.us/forensics/policy/policystatement.htm#CA , the medical examiner must approve or deny all such requests.
The attending physician in Terri Schiavo's case has a history of 5 NPDB reported malpractice cases. There is an open quesiton of what led to her original "event".
Please disallow the cremation until the medical examiner's office can perform an appropriate investigation and/or postmortem examination to determine both the immediate cause of death AND the proximate cause of death, including the search for any injuries from the past consistent with a potential crime.
Despite the currently accepted rationale for her initial “event”, evidence on postmortem examination may reveal that Terri Schiavo was the victim of a crime many years ago.
Judge Greer has not allowed an MRI or PET Scan. PET scans are of no value post mortem, but MRI may have some limited benefit, in addition to the physical autopsy, particularly for small, old injuries to ligaments and muscles that would be consistent with a trauma that occurred due to a crime (e.g. strangulation or abuse) if one had occurred.
If there are perpetrators of a crime covering something up, they will not want such an examination done. They will be afraid of justice.
Please act now to assure no authorization is given for cremation without a proper investigation and autopsy to address these issues.
Sincerely,

You mean ME's aren't the least bit interested in learning the truth?
Thank you. Please keep her in your prayers. And believe me, it would literally be over my and my mothers dead bodies before anyone starved her to death.
There are times when spamming with calls and emails produces the opposite of the intended effect. This is one of those times.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
How stupid! He's only been on TV, magazines, and 5000 other web sites.
Don't you ever wonder what would happen to Greer if he reversed his ruling?
I do.
How are Felos and DU, today?
Poor George Greer if he reverses his ruling, too.
There will be no investigation by anyone. Judge Greer is the law here in Florida.
Thanks for info. Email sent with your letter.
According to a guy on Hannity, the medical examiner can refuse to issue a death certificate until he has done an autopsy. Apparently, he has that right. Hoping he does one.Think some new evidence may come to light.
God bless you and your grandmother.
Dr. Cranford, whose testimony was heavily relied on in Terri's case, says they are coming after granny next...
"The United States has thousands or tens of thousands of patients in vegetative states; nobody knows for sure exactly how many," he wrote. "But before long, this country will have several million patients with Alzheimer's dementia. The challenges and costs of maintaining vegetative state patients will pale in comparison to the problems presented by Alzheimer's disease." The answer, he suggested, was physician-assisted suicide.Guess you better hide her in the cellar... ; )In published articles, including a 1997 op-ed in the Minneapolis–St. Paul Star Tribune, he has advocated the starvation of Alzheimer’s patients. He has described PVS patients as indistinguishable from other forms of animal life. He has said that PVS patients and others with brain impairment lack personhood and should have no constitutional rights. Perusing the case literature and articles surrounding the “right to die” and PVS, one will see Dr. Cranford’s name surface again and again. In almost every case, he is the one claiming PVS, and advocating the cessation of nutrition and hydration.
Thank you very much.
That's fast becoming the urban legend of choice around here.
The "open question" survived the malpractice insurance company full investigation. They had millions at stake and left no stone unturned. No fault was attributed to Michael Schiavo, just Terri and the doctor shared the blame according to the jury.
Terri's body has been secretly and illegally twisted and turned by some nurses under the guise of giving physical therapy. They admit to this in their affidavits. They would be the prime suspects if any new healed over wounds were found.
Lord have mercy on Judge Greer's soul.
Lets waste some MORE resources millions aren't enough.
