Schiavo 's parents sought, were denied own expert to observed autopsy
Tampa Bay's 10 ^ | April 2, 2005 | AP

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Legal setbacks for Terri Schiavo's parents continue even after the brain-damaged woman's death.

The Pinellas County Medical Examiner's Office denied the parents' request to have independent medical experts observe Schiavo's autopsy has been denied.

Over their seven-years-long legal battle, Bob and Mary Schindler sought independent investigation of their daughter's condition. They wanted to select a neuropathologist and a forensic expert to observe her autopsy.

The autopsy was completed yesterday. Results are not expected for several weeks.

Terri Schiavo's body was cremated today. Her husband plans to bury her remains in a family plot in Pennsylvania. He is required to tell the Schindlers about any memorial services he plans for her, and where the ashes are interred.

The Schindlers have planned their own memorial service for their daughter Tuesday night in Gulfport.

I believe in an honest medical examination at the same time I believe the Nazi photos are over the top. I am secure in the belief I can express both those views simultaneously without the worthless input of non Jews such as yourself. Is that OK to your highness??

Did you overlook the fact that a quarter of the last 100 comments are from someone who keeps telling others what they can (or more appropriately can't) talk about, when all they were doing is speaking their own minds?

Bravo ......... I wish I would have said that. ;-)

"I do not have blinders on by any means. All I am saying is that it is best we get rid of the Nazi imagery when discussing the case of Terri Schiavo. They are not the same. Let's stick to the facts of this case please."

I disagree, and nothing you've said has convinced me otherwise. No two things are ever the same, but these two things have enough in common that they merit comparison and discussion.

This is the 2nd article I have read where it says Michael Schiavo must tell his in-laws where Terri's ashes are buried. Is this a law? Is it after the funeral/ceremony?

his scuzzy lawyer have been taking in the past few years,

You might be interested to read what this "scuzzy" lawyer has written - he wrote a book some time ago - there's some passages on threads in FR - he sees himself and a sort of angel of death - thinks he's doing people a wonderful service by putting them out of their misery.

there is one doctor they used to falsely state that Terri's was without a brain - etc etc (this same doctor testified in the famous Robert Wendland case in California in the 1990's) there is a cabal of these deathCrats -

Decent people can't conceive of such evil - and that is the naivete they count on...This "See no evil..." allows them the time they need to get established

Say it one more time on this thread for an even three dozen.

Not even that. It could be attributed to "unknown causes." PVS (or so called PVS) doesn't require visible brain damage.

Perhaps, but there'd be a limit to how many PVS cases could be declared 'unknown causes' before things started to smell. Throwing in a random mix of hypokatemia, anoxia, infections, etc. might help hide the pattern.

"worthless input of non Jews such as yourself"? I think you've just gone over that top!

I think it's simply Greer's effort to seem less evil while he offers Michael yet another way to torture his in-laws.

Sorry I have not convinced you non Jew. Maybe it is time you stopped using the tragedy of our people for your own gain.

Why? Do you think Jews are the only ones who suffered evil at the hands of despots? If you do you are narrow minded.

Stop using the tragedy of my people for your purposes "beyond the sea." You are not a Jew and have no clue as to where we are coming from.

"Let me guess the Pinellas county ME is part of the Mike Schaivo conspiracy too?"

Everett Rice, former Pinellas County Sheriff, used to sit on the board of directors of the Hospice of Florida Suncoast, with GEORGE FELOS. "Suncoast" is the corporation which operates the Woodside Hospice in Pinellas Park where Terri Schiavo was starved to death.

Everett Rice was also the same Pinellas County Sheriff who repeatedly refused to investigate the abuse allegations filed by Florida's Dept of Children and Families against one Michael Schiavo. The DCF brought these abuse allegation before one Judge George W. Greer.

At about the same time, Sheriff Everett Rice hired Michael Schiavo to work in his Pinellas County Jail's medical unit. Everett Rice is also a close friend of Judge Greer's, and he authorized the use of a Sheriff's cruiser and a Sheriff's Deputy to appear in a TV ad for the election of the good Judge Greer.

Judge Greer has also limited the scope of the autopsy, (the Schindler's request for a brain autopsy by a Board Certified Neuropathologist, (which Thogmartin is NOT, is apparently bieng denied.)

But hey, there's nothing going on here, just move along please.

You SHOULD be offended by that imagery; EVERYONE should be, because that is probably how Terri looked (maybe worse) when she died. I see nothing wrong with posting that imagery; sometimes it takes pictures to make people really understand an atrocity, such as this is. So, in this case, I feel this imagery AND comparison to the Nazis is entirely appropriate, and if it's not stopped, we'll be there sooner than we think!

It is almost like the Clinton's are running this County. They literally got away with murder.

We have suffered the most. That is a fact. Now live with it.

Yes he/she did, but he/she probably doesn't know it.

I wonder if she has my papers. ;-)

I wonder if the poster thinks that input is worthless if one isn't a Jew. It sure sounds like that doesn't it?
