Remembering Terri Schiavo: What About Michael?
3/31/10 | Self

Posted on 03/31/2010 1:01:24 AM PDT by Nextrush

"Michael Schiavo would probably say that many of the people I have quoted in the last three chapters are lying. I find this difficult to believe, as different people who never knew one another say the same things about him. It is abundantly clear that as soon as he received the medical malpractice award, Michael Schiavo began a relentless campaign to end Terri's life. While she was alive, her trust was used to pay her medical bills and the legal fees generated by the effort to end her life. Once she died, he would inherit whatever was left. He would be free to marry his girlfriend, with whom he had two children."

Mark Fuhrman ("Silent Witness" p.144)

The fiesty and often angry Michael Schiavo was a part of the media frenzy that accompanied the killing of his wife five years ago today.

Former LA police detective Mark Fuhrman was enlisted by Sean Hannity to check into the circumstances that led to Terri being disabled in 1990 and to look at what, if any role, Michael may have had with her original injury.

Furhman's findings were published under the title "Silent Witness: The Untold Story of Terri Schiavo's Death." The book was published just a few months after Terri's death.

Fuhrman painted a very troubling picture of Michael Schiavo as a man who couldn't hold a steady job, a man who was angry and controlling.

One of Terri's former co-workers said this about Michael when she learned that he had become a registered nurse.

"When I heard Michael had become a nurse, I'd go to that hospital like I'd go fishing with Scott Peterson" ("Silent Witness" pg. 144)

At one time Michael Schiavo was seeing a doctor for depression and suicidal thoughts, Fuhrman discovered.

Michael sought out relationships with other women and acted strange around them and when he was with Terri, muttering that "she was dying" and saying she was in a "persistent vegetative state."

In the end, Michael found a girlfriend and after he did Michael began the legal process to have Terri put to death by removing her feeding tube.

By the time of Terri's death in 2005 Michael Schiavo had fathered two children with his girlfriend. He married her after Terri's death.

In the pages of Fuhrman's book, it looks like we find evidence of the real motivation for Terri's death.

I thought we were done with these soap operas.

Why would we be done?

Terri was but a sneak preview of what will become the norm if people like Zero and Myth get their way.

Nobody forced you to click in it.

The forum is "News/Activism," not "Afternoon Soaps."

Well, you must enjoy them if you took the time to clink on the link and make a posting, right.

Mikey and the Murderers? What about him. He works at The County Jail so essentially, he’s in prison most of the time. Works for me.

My freeper friend, when you are standing before your DEATH PANEL, would you like us to pray for you or anything? Terri Schiavo was the first Official Death Panel.

Her murder was just too horrific for us to forget us. It is not just posters here who cannot forget what was done to her. Nat Hentoff called it the "longest public execution in American history."
In a survey of tearjerker news - "news stories that made you cry," Terri Schiavo was mentioned.
The Washington Times, March 31, 2010 carried the article "Remembering the death of Terri Schiavo: Care of the helpless is not a choice but a moral obligation" by Cathy Ruse who wrote "We are all diminished by this young woman's death."

You must be thinking of somebody else. The one referred to here is the FNC commentator and author of several best sellers, including breaking the Martha Moxley murder.

That show was perverted. And no outrage. Yet I recall the 24/7 hysteria in the media when Ann Coulter made a glib comment about John Edwards.
