Mark Fuhrman: The facts of Terri Schiavo’s life (I read his new book today - five stars
MSNBC ^ | June 28 05 | Fuhrman

Posted on 06/28/2005 7:29:53 PM PDT by churchillbuff

This excerpt, from MSNBC, doesn't get anywhere near the meat of the book - where Fuhrman shows how Michael's inconstent statements, and the timeline of the morning that Terri collapsed, raise a lot of questions - and suspicions. Read the book.

It wasn't sloppy investigation, in my opinion he did a pretty good job, it was his denial of ever using the n word and then being proven wrong that hurt the case.

Now THAT'S a horse of a different color (to quote the Wiz of Oz)!

Do try to use basic English reading comprehension skills.
1. I never said I was a Christian.
2. I never hinted I would feel "joyous" if one of your relatives died.

The Schindler family had the stamina and guts to talk to anyone who was willing to listen to help them save their daughter from death.
You don't like Fuhrman?
Who cares!
But to say Fuhrman had no ability to easily access quite detailed information about Terri Schiavo is an outright lie, and I called you on it.
I do not remember meeting you outside the Hospice at any of the three times the feeding tubes providing food and water were pulled from the helpless body of Terri Schiavo.
What the heck is wrong with you?

Wow, then I would notify FR right away about someone else using your user name because very clearly, someone named Sarasmom said this:

"I would never ask God that these or any other nightmares become part of your life, but I will enjoy a bit of scheudenfreude if I ever chance to hear of it happening to you."

You will enjoy a bit of schaudenfreude? Schaudenfreude is deriving joy from the misery of others. You knew that before you used it, right?

Finished reading the book. Wow! Now that Terri is dead, a Grand Jury investigation of her collapse should proceed. Anyway, Michael Schiavo HIMSELF teases them with it - on her tombstone it reads that she died the day of her collapse. There is no statute of limitations on murder. Go Fuhrman!!

Are you sure you're a faux blonde? Is English a second language for you? The person was asking that NOTHING happen to you or your relatives.

These Schaivo threads are always so filled with hatred, it's astonishing to see it over and over.

Um, no. What blew the OJ case was an abjectly incompetent prosecution team combined with an abysmally stupid jury.

"Silent Witness" - like the previous book about the Kennedy killing - details sloppy law enforcement, among other things. "Silent Witness" is an eye-opening book!!!

There's a chapter on various scenarios that could have happened that fateful night when Terri collapsed. The one that rings the most true to me is that Michael flopped on Terri from behind, knocking the wind out of her, and she couldn't recover enough to get oxygen to the brain.

Fuhrman catches Michael in several lies - never investigated. But there's no statute of limitations on murder. Now that Terri has officially died, a Grand Jury investigation can take place, and a formal investigation can be conducted. No reason why it shouldn't happen . . . unless the politicians wimp out again. After all, Michael himself had the inscription on Terri's gravestone that she died on the day of her collapse. To this day, there is not a plausible explanation of what caused Terri to collapse. She had a yeast infection and a potassium imbalance but WOULD THAT KILL AN OTHERWISE HEALTHY WOMAN?!!

Terri was wanting a divorce; she had discussed it with several people. Michael was a controlling sob; that's all documented. He checked the mileage on her speedometer, etc.

Terri confided in two people that she and Michael had been quarreling the day before her collapse but Michael told law enforcement that there had been no "major" problems. Had there been a thorough investigation at the time of her collapse, their quarreling and the fact that Terri wanted a divorce would have come out. The fight was about Terri dying her hair blonde and about the cost, $80 lousy dollars. Terri was crying and very upset.

Terri was a beautiful woman and it must have caused Michael a lot of grief that she was a blonde; he wanted her to be a brunette. Imagine a man having that much obsession over his wife's hair color! And if my husband ever complained about my spending $80 at the beauty salon, I would be very suspicious that he was a creep from hell!!!

I never knew that Terri was seeing the UPS guy from her work - that he had taken her out to lunch and they had joked around and enjoyed each other's company. Maybe Michael Schiavo found out about that and had a hissy fit. (I am so glad to learn that Terri had a male friend that was sweet to her.)

Michael Schiavo cashed in on a life-insurance policy on Terri while she was still alive. Furthermore, he melted down her jewelry to make jewelry for himself. He had her two cats put to death. Does that sound like the "loving" husband he claimed to be.

After the award money came in, he REALLY BEGAN TO SHOW HIS TRUE COLORS. Being that the Schindler's were trusting, loving Christian types, it caught them by surprise . . . except for Terri's sister Suzanne. She never trust her brother-in-law. You go, girl!! She hired a private investigator to look into Terri's collapse.

After the money came in, Michael became obsessed with getting rid of Terri. Destroy the evidence. He's a pretty crafty dude.

The Schindler's are portrayed in Fuhrman's book as gullible, loving, innocent, naaive people who in the beginning just couldn't believe their son-in-law was capable of such evil. I imagine Laci Peterson's family thought the same - AT FIRST - about Scott.

Michael Schiavo was very lucky to have George Felos for his lead attorney and George Greer for his judge and jury . . . or was he?

The Death Cultists aren't going to like this book.

They're already attacking Fuhrman.

Why is identifying your skin color or ethnicity racist?

I'm a white woman. Wow, what a racist I am.

I'm also Irish. Look at the racism fly!

No, I'm a mid-30s white woman of Irish extraction.

Goths are angsty teens who paint their nails black and pout.

Mark Fuhrmann, of all people, should know the consequences of unsubstantiated and unprovable accusations. Shame on him. I guess he's forgotten what it's like to be the target of a witch hunt.

Mark Fuhrmann was helping a woman write a screenplay about LAPD cops. She wanted to get the flavor of the way they talk. He was giving her, FOR HER SCREENPLAY, examples of the things he had heard. It was innocent. She even testified to that. But that didn't matter, because once it's out there..it's out there. As is what Fuhrmann is doing to Michael Schiavo now. Ironic, isn't it?

They are white. You said you were white. Is that racist or chosen-group-identification of you? When I say goths are white, I mean white -- as in white white. White makeup, etc. Goth's are example of self-chosen group-associative identification.

When you say you are white what do you mean?

When LN Smithee said he was "a black man" it was clear that he meant it as a racial identification; it was racist.
