One thing the culture of lifers refuse to deal with is the possibility, no the liklihood that Terri's condiditon was brought on by her dieting regimine. If that was the cause of her condition, then Terri had a hand in that killing. If her actions cause that condition, then she would be alive today. Judge Greer wouldn't have heard the case. The various legislatures and executive branches wouldn't have been put in an unwinnable position. If that is the situation, her dietary or eating habits brought this on, then she too had a hand in her killing. Two wrongs don't make a right, but sometimes a wrong brings on another wrong.
