PINELLAS PARK, Fla. - Medical examiners concluded an autopsy on Terri Schiavo on Friday, and prepared to release her remains to family members who continued to fight bitterly over the case of the brain-damaged woman who became the flashpoint for a nationwide debate over right-to-die issues.
"The examination included routine forensic autopsy procedures, supplemented by full post mortem X-rays," the Pinellas County, Fla., medical examiner's office said in a statement. "Terri Schiavo's remains are ready for release to the establishment selected by the legally authorized person, for purposes of final disposition. "

Offensive to anyone with the sense to know that it is wrong to smear someone with the type of innuendo and outright accusations that are being directed at this ME.

Down the line, months or years, there might well be an official exhumation of her body for a new examination by others.
To: atruelady
If the medical examiner was on the up and up, he would hold the body for evidence.Bodies are never "held for evidence." MEs can get everything they need to determine cause of death from pathological exams.

Down the line, months or years, there might well be an official exhumation of her body for a new examination by others. Not likely. She's being cremated.

I was under the impression the so called "husband" wanted the autopsy. The autopsy will conclude that she was brain damaged, DON'T WE KNOW THIS ALREADY? WHAT IS THE POINT? Is there no end too this? Does the extent of brain damage mean it is ok too kill some one anyway????

She's being cremated. There will be no body to exhume.
To: Fast1
Was the cause of death starvation?? That would leave someone open to a homicide charge right?The cause of death will be some form of organ failure. There will be no mention that starvation led to the organ failure. Remember, Felos said that no one starves to death because they are denied hydration and nutrients.

It's really sad how these people are vilified before the report is even done. I guess it's then easier to dismiss the results should they not be what they expect
To: rocksblues
But at a time when emotions are running high, Mr. DeLay needs to make clear that he is not advocating violence against anyone.
Except when Judges are handing out edicts from on high to deprive the helpless of their Lives!
THAT is acceptable violence is it Teddy?
Resistance by force is also Acceptable!

>>>I think it is also very useful to look at her brain to see what damage was actually there.
I'm really glad they got to do the autopsy. It should provide very useful information.<<<<
Nope.. Not according to Dr. Badan and Dr. Ceryl Wecht(sp?).
They both stated on TV last night that to get an accurate diagnosis on how brain damaged Terri was the ME has to soak her brain in formaldehyde for a month then dissect it and run tests.
That is not being done here if he is already finished and turned over the body.

If you know what the autopsy will conclude, then I conclude you are either in on The Conspiracy.

Agree.....wonder why they refused a qualified "observer" from a different ME's office ? Kinda taints the truth with such a closed door to professional courtesy IMO. But then a professional ME would be whack to try and hide such in a case such as this.........wouldn't they ??
Stay safe D !

Wecht is a JFK assassination conspiracy nut. Like Randall Terry, Jessie Jackson et al., his presence detracts from, rather than adds credibility to any particular position.
