In the article, it read: "He looked like the kind of man who could kill his wife."

My stepfather was a county judge in a largely rural Indiana county, and my older brother and I would sit in the visitors gallery situated above the main floor of the courtroom and watch the proceedings below--very Harper Lee, I know. Although we were taught not to judge by outward appearances, it was amazing to my brother and me (then both very young) how much the accused criminals looked like men who would commit the crimes of which they were accused: petty thieves looked like petty thieves: shifty-eyed little weasels; wife-beaters like wife-beaters: brutish louts; con-men like con-men: slick and smooth; and so on. You could just imagine defense attorneys telling these men to look a little less sinister, please. So when the author says Michael Schiavo looks like a man who could kill his wife, I would have to agree. I thought so before they made the decision and began the killing process. Shame on those who did the act. Shame on all of us for letting it happen.

Michael and the vampire Felos came across exactly as this author describes them even on television, and some of the Fox journalists expressed their revulsion for Felos during the times he was describing poor Terri's "lovely" death.

God bless the Schindlers. Their daughter fell into the hands of monsters, and the courts and legislators mostly backed the monsters to the hilt.
