I agree Mickey should receive most of the blame. But not the only one. I recall wondering why was Jeb dragging his feet - and then his pathetic "Nothing I can do" claims. He could have saved her but chose not to do it.

I regret not having done more. But some of us naively believe she would be saved, that what was done to her would not be allowed in this country.

Sir, this was a terrible tragedy for this woman. What these guys keep leaving out is that they had the window of opportunity to appeal, they didn’t. And due process took it’s course. And yes, Jeb Bush did make an effort but due process took it’s course.

Again, if there’s to be blame, I blame the husband. But then who knows, I don’t and you don’t know whether he knew the wife’s wishes better than the family did.

Hopefully this was a terrible lesson and people will make sure they have a living will stating their wishes explicitly and not leaving the burden of such a decision up to somebody else to make, or have to fight.

Why is this being brought up again NOW? Somebody needing a distraction from the events of today?
