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.

I would not want to compare this guy to myself on any occasion. Just MHO.
This whole episode reminds me of the story, "THE LOTTERY"
There's a guy I'd like to have a beer with and shoot the breeze. Tell some war stories.
Don't be so down hearted that justice won't be served.
Felos won't cover him because he is not a criminal lawyer and has had his hey day for his "death" agenda. I believe that the big players will want the heat to go away from them and Micheal seems like a venerable scapegoat now.
We will see.
And then inserted that if something bad DID happen, she'd enjoy a sense of schaudenfreude.
But, whatever.
If Micheal was somehow a part of causing Terri to be in her end condition..wouldn't you want to know?
Schaudenfreude is for dims, nazis, scientologists and euthanasists. I hope there are none of those here.
This pretty much tells me all I need to know.
A woman was held hostage and murdered by the courts.There are predators out there who want to get rid of "useless eaters" and she was the test case.
That this could happen here is more frightening than words can say.
Once you have a celebrity defendant facing major charges and a stupid and/or corrupt jury, the case is lost.
You may continue to ignore the topic at hand, as it bumps the thread, and I will ignore your "strawman" attempts.
Irepeat:
"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"
"Furhman did purger himself and LA did a horrible job of prosecuting that case."
Guess that depends upon your point of view. The only time he used the word, it was written and in a fictional novel he was writing.
There was no way that jury was going to find OJ guilty no matter how much evidence the prosecution presented.
"Terri desperately wanted a divorce from Michael Schiavo who checked her mileage and obsessed over her hair color and money she spent."
Then why didn't she?
" Don't be so down hearted that justice won't be served."
Sorry I seem like that. Let's just say I wont get my hopes up.
It wouldnt be the first time someone got away with murder.
A while back Martha Moxley's mother was on TV and stated that if it weren't for Dominic Dunne and Mark Fuhrman, the case would never have been solved.
It is tragic that some hated Terri so much that they gloated at her being dehydrated to death, a barbaric way of killing anyone.
Did Michael Schiavo say why he refused to talk with Mark Fuhrman?
No strawman here. You said something outrageously rude, I called you on it, and now you want to divert attention from it.
At any rate, I don't care for Mark Fuhrman, and am sick to death of hearing about that poor Schlinder/Schiavo family. If I were inclined to keep reading about them, I would choose to spend money on works by authors who do not think "nigger" is an acceptable way to describe someone.
I would bet my better car that you will pop back in disagreemnt, but I would ask you to ponder it a while.
Well, digitize your better car and email it to me, because you lose. I agree that Fuhrman could be professional in the execution of his duties while being a racist. In the context of the recordings proving Fuhrman's use of the word "nigger" that is most favorable to him, it wasn't being used making a specific reference to an actual person; Fuhrman was, as he told the story, speaking as if he was a bigoted character in a proposed work of fiction. Nonetheless, the facts are that he said he didn't use the word and he did. If he had come clean at the time (or remembered that he had the conversation with the woman who spilled the beans), at the very least no one could credibly suggest that he was lying on the witness stand.
I am not defending the Simpson case jurors' intelligence or judgment. I would have voted to convict O.J. myself. I just don't believe it was a case of juror nullification.
FWIW, I was pinged so often regarding other issues after you posted your reply that I didn't even see it until today, when I was pinged to this thread via subsequent posts. I tracked the progression of those posts back to #61.
Really? I'm a racist? Explain yourself. Your logic is obvious only to you.
Huh? I didn't say anything about letting a relative go. I merely told Hildy that Fuhrman didn't reveal anything new. Talk about a non sequitur!
Earthdweller: The book is not about end of life decisions.
Again, all I told Hildy was that Fuhrman didn't reveal anything new.
Earthdweller: Micheal may have had other motives that you may have not considered. Fuhrman doesn't care if it was right to let Terri go in the end.
I didn't say anything about Michael's motives, either. I just said Fuhrman didn't reveal anything new.
Earthdweller: If Micheal was somehow a part of causing Terri to be in her end condition..wouldn't you want to know?
Sure. However, it's been investigated, scrutinized, gone over with a fine tooth comb for 15 years. And no one, including Mark Fuhrman, has come up with anything new. Isn't it time for the tinfoil hat crowd to consider the possibility there isn't anything more to learn?
