TR, I'm thinking the final pieces of the puzzle fell into place this evening with the revelation that Flordia law requires the patient to be 'not conscious' in cases of dehydration euthanizing and the added note regarding the 'retroactive' application of new law applied to Terri's case.

Here's the image: Greer and Felos are part of a movement to set precedent that will allow the terminations of elderly and infirm as a means to 'clear beds' that are paid for by state funds! [Terri's case may not be a state supported disability, but if the precedent is established with her execution then no one is safe when the state decides to terminate care it decides it no longer wants to pay for.] If this happens on Jeb Bush's watch and he does not oppose it with action instead of merely words, well, I don't want to go into the repercussions, but suffice it to say he will never be elected to any office beyond his current job!

This case stinks of a Judge that is ignoring any relevant material that would work in Theresa Schiavo's favor. And why?... Because this Judge and his associates (who likely include Felos and others) are determined to execute Terri and thus brush aside the current legal protections in favor of establishing a new paradigm! THAT is becoming more and more evident with each revelation. What threw me over the top and put on this line of reasoning was the blatant disregard for the facts of this case that Greer has had to ignore in order to continue pursuing his predetermined course. Michael Schiavo is a totally unfit person to be Terri's guardian, as evidenced by his own longstanding cohabitation with another woman while Terri is yet alive and he is legally married to her. His refusal to use the funds won in a lawsuit, for Terri's rehabilitation efforts, is blatant abuse of Terri and her assets by her 'guardian'.

What Greer is doing stinks of execution to cover his very poor judicial stewardship and his blatant predetermined goal in this case. If the Governor of the state is unwilling to get off his butt and assign his attorney general to deal with this and remove not only Greer but the abusive guardianship, then it is squarely on Jeb Bush's head as far as I am concerned, he is complicit in her execution. And there is no excuse of 'not knowing the facts' of this case because I can assure you that the attorney general of Flordia and the Governor's office have been updated and have all the data they need to order Florida Protective Services to act on Terri's behalf regarding the abusive nature of her guardian's malicious neglect and conflicts of interest.

ping to #242 ... I'm wondering if this is a missed avenue of effort on Terri's behalf; has the abuse-and-neglect-by-an-unfit-guardian angle been explored to challenge Michael's continued abuse and thus cancel his guardianship?

Please explain, MHG, how this "revelation" came into play. I am just reading your post at 8:30 Central on Tuesday morning. How can Greer be reined in for violating FL law if Jeb is too chicken to act?
