Terri Schiavo autopsy completed Her parents, husband planning separate funeral arrangements Saturday, April 2, 2005 Posted: 1540 GMT (2340 HKT) http://edition.cnn.com/2005/US/04/02/schiavo.ap
TAMPA, Florida (AP) -- The autopsy of Terri Schiavo has been completed, and the body is ready for release to her husband, who plans to cremate her remains and bury the ashes in an unspecified family plot.
Results from the autopsy, which was completed Friday, will not be released for several weeks, according to the medical examiner's office.
Michael Schiavo has said he hopes the autopsy will settle questions about his wife's medical condition, but experts differ on whether that will happen. He declined to comment Friday.
Terri Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, and Michael Schiavo spent Friday planning separate funerals for the 41-year-old woman, who died Thursday -- nearly two weeks after her feeding tube was removed
Michael Schiavo's family has said he plans to take the cremated remains to Pennsylvania, where Terri Schiavo grew up, but her parents and siblings had wanted to bury her body in Florida so they can visit her grave.
David Gibbs, the Schindlers' attorney, said there have been no further discussions between the two parties about the remains. The Schindlers do not plan to press the issue in court, he said.
"The court has already determined that (Michael Schiavo) will control the burial decisions," Gibbs said.
Michael Schiavo's brother, Scott Schiavo, had said Thursday that the Schindlers might not be informed of the burial location near Philadelphia because his family did not want to turn it into a media spectacle.
However, Michael Schiavo has been ordered by the court to disclose the location of the burial site to the family and inform them of any memorial service he plans.

"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. " |

Perhaps Michael should let his brother know that he is planning on placing her ashes in a plot in PA because he angrily told the News that Michael was going to spread her ashes somewhere in PA. Big differenc. Everything MS does not is to give the Schindlers the finger...He won't let it go...He wants to pay them back and pay them back some more...
While I hope they should more class, her parent's camp may well make asses out of themselves with knowledge of any memorial services he holds or her interment. I can smell the protests now with signs of "You Murderer!" and so forth.
He just knew the news was all over him for the way he mishandled the case and didn't want things to look any worse for him. He obviously doesn't have a conscience.
Now......what was that about greer's conscience ???
"Michael Schiavo's brother, Scott Schiavo, had said Thursday that the Schindlers might not be informed of the burial location near Philadelphia"
And they wonder why they get death threats?
Greer has adequately shown he doesn't have a conscience. More likely heat from outside or from higher ups is being placed on him now. Too little too late.
He's not planning on running again, so I doubt he cares much about keeping his job.
I included the caveat "maybe".
The Truth bothers you, eh?
However, Michael Schiavo has been ordered by the court to disclose the location of the burial site to the family and inform them of any memorial service he plans.
The kindly jurist would reply, "Where does the Constitution address granting the parents a lock of hair?"
David Gibbs III, attorney for the Schindlers, said the autopsy videotape, pictures and tissue samples will be able to be reviewed by medical experts if the family so requests. The autopsy report will be a public record except for the images.

Michael is in hiding because he is now running scared and will now have to hide the rest of his life, not because he is worried about protests. He never had any concern for Terri's well being before, why should he care now?
