Hey! The big cheese chimes in!
The sick part of all this is that a life is taken because the parents didn't get the right people, not that they didn't have a case. There's something wrong with that.
I matters concerning life and death, do overs should be automatic. They are in capital murder cases.
Heck even kindergarten kids playing baseball have the sense to know that a do over is preferable to seeing a game won or lost on a questionable play.

Yes, this is the sad part. I think they're very nice people who were very naive about what they were up against. They should have gone to disability and/or pro-life organizations from the beginning. But, even if they didn't understand, their lawyer should have and HE should have sought advice from groups better versed in disability rights and right to life issues.
