Like Randall Terry, George Felos had (and has an agenda)
Felos is associated with the far out left spectrum of the bar, and the same goes for Terry and the right.
Both of these lawyers took these cases because they thought they could get political mileage for their causes, I don't believe for a second that either Terry or Felos gave a damn about their clients. These are lawyers, thats alone reason to be suspicious, but these are also lawyers who have a reputation of taking high-profile, high attention cases which happen to be controversial.
Do you know if Fuhrman has finished the book and if so, when it'll be on sale?
The fact is that it was a court order. A government dictated death.

Am I misunderstanding your meaning? Randall Terry wasn't the Schindlers lawyer.
You are partially right, but not entirely. Randall Terry was not their lawyer, was invited in as a friend of the family to help them and that he did. He spent lots of time working in the background away from the cameras because of the issue, the horror of the impending murder. Randall Terry was there as one of many all working together against the atrocity.
This isn't belief or emotion. It is fact.
Jesse Jackson, though, did show up, and did get before the cameras.
The timing of his call for an investigation is explained HERE:

Well, I assumed he was their lawyer, if he wasn't the lawyer, then who was?
The same kinds of arguments in favor of Euthanasia are rearing their ugly heads in cases like Terri's. And far too many people are buying them.

Randall Terry saw it as a way to pivot himself as a leader again in the pro-life movement. I do think Terry is sincere about his beliefs. However, I don't ever want to see him or people who would utilize his kind of tacitcs leading the charge against Euthanasia or hold any leadership position in the pro-life movement again ever. He caused the movement enough destruction during the first go round.
Dante3, Do you know when it's coming out?
"I'd prefer if the parents were doing this, not the state."
June 28th.
What I thought was that he was one more of the group there, and not in the prominent role one might have expected.
He didn't seem to be leading any charges, like Rev. Pat Mahoney and others were doing vigorously. Others were spokespeople for the Schindlers as well.
More than a pro-life effort or an anti-euthanasia effort, it was a pro-Terri effort first and foremost.

My finger trembled on the hair trigger and I doubled my words just like that.
The Felos euthanasia lawyer's office (Francine - press agent of Felos) is putting this out to all media - notice the disparity in Schiavo's times -
P R E S S R E L E A S E
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SCHIAVO RESPONDS TO GOVERNOR
DUNEDIN, FLORIDA, June 18, 2005-Calling Governor Bush's request for an investigation an "outrage," Michael Schiavo states, "I have consistently said over the years that I didn't wait but 'ran' to call 911 after Terri collapsed." As to the time of the 911 call Mr. Schiavo states that, "I wasn't wearing a watch or looking at a clock and I have stated in my sworn testimony that 'I'm not good with dates and times, like I told you before' " [January 24, 2000 testimony]
As the following show, Mr. Schiavo has never stated an exact time of Terri's collapse:
"Q That was the early morning when you woke up to Terri's collapse?
A Correct.
Q …you found her after her heart attack on the floor about 5:00 in the morning…is that right?
A Correct." [direct and cross examination from November 5, 1992 malpractice trial]
"Q …tell me what occurred on February 25, 1990?
A I got home late from work that night…A few hours later I heard this thud. So I ran out into the hall and I found Terri on the floor…I turned her over going, 'Terri, Terri. You okay?' I laid her down and ran over and called 911." [January 24, 2000 testimony]
"Q What happened Michael on February 25, 2005?
A …I came home around 2:00 in the morning, climbed into bed…I'd say about 4:30 in the morning…I head a thud in the hall. I raced out there and Terri was laying in the hall. I rolled her over and she was lifeless…I ran over, I called 911" [October 27, 2003 statement on Larry King Live]
"Her husband heard a bang about 6a.m. and found his wife on the floor with difficulty breathing…and unresponsive. The paramedics were called right away…" [February 25, 1990 admitting records from Humana Hospital-Northside]
As all of the above information has been on the record for years, and never made an issue, Mr. Schiavo asserts that this newly created non-issue "is meant to deflect attention from the fact that the Medical Examiner's report has shown the Schindlers' claims and Governor's position to be untrue." "It is sickening that the Schindlers and Governor Bush, for their own selfish reasons, want to keep this case going."
Noting that almost everyone realizes that remembering exact times from fifteen years ago is impossible, Mr. Schiavo concludes, "For sensible people the autopsy report gave closure in this case. I hope that everyone can finally put this matter behind them."

Good answer ClancyJ. I am glad to see anything that will make Michael S nervous. I think he was responsible for Terri's physical state.
Really, so where in the Bible does God say it is the mind that makes the man. And not all of Terri's brain died 15 years ago, only some of it, so therefore seeing she still had some brain left technically she had some life left. I agree once the brain dies you are dead, but this was not the case with Terri.
