Didn't the court decide it was Terri's wish to die?

Didn't the court find O.J. not guilty, abortion a federally guaranteed right, segregation legal, then illegal, .etc.

Yes, in one of the two cases against him.

abortion a federally guaranteed right,

It did. Thus, it is (for now).

segregation legal, then illegal, .etc.

It was and is no longer.

So many people think Terri's case was about the right to life. It wasn't. It wasn't even about the right to die. Terri's case was about who speaks for a person when that person is no longer able to speak for herself.
