Jeb Bush CAN STOP death of TERRI SCHIAVO !!! CALL!!!
http://www.terrisfight.org ^ | pollywog
With Republicans like Jeb, we don't need Democrats to do us in.
Outrageous, you say? How can a mere judge hold more power than the governor, you say? Reality, I say. It's been that way for a while now, while everybody was sleeping. We're no longer a Republic, we are ruled by the Philosopher-Kings of the Judiciary.

So no food/water for over 4 days then yet she's still alert and doing well? That REALLY makes me think there is a nurse there that actually has a heart and is sneaking her food and water.

Since Terri's body is to be cremated, does her body have to be autopsied?

It seems as though, according to Florida law, her death has to be investigated, even if her body is not autopsied.

Deaths Investigated:

* By criminal violence.
[snip].
* When the body is to be cremated, dissected, or buried at sea.

Statutory References:

Florida Stat. Ann. Sections 34.01; 119.07; 382.002(11), 382.008(2)(3), 382.011; 406.01 et seq.; 872.04; 925.09.

Terri did have a swollowing test done several years ago. From what I understand, the last time she was tested was when the lawsuit was initially started several years ago.

A nurse on the AOL Message board insists that a swallowing test is REQUIRED BY LAW every 6 months if you have a feeding tube and I KNEW Terri had not been getting them,

Kangaroo courts and the Executive Power / Terri's will to live
10/18/03 -- Jeb's Emails to FR poster, summer, today, re: Terri. (And, a Message to Michael Shiavo)

Posted by pc93 to No More Gore Anymore
On News/Activism 10/19/2003 8:32 AM PDT #204 of 214

To: Lawdoc; dixiegrrl; supercat; Pegita

Rumours have been flying aroun the internet and people are getting things mixed up. This summary on one page seems to be the most accurate.

"Judge George Greer: Ruler of the Kangaroo Court set on killing Terri Schiavo. Impartial? Not in the least! Worked side by side as county commissioner with Barbara Sheen Todd (county commissioner) for eight YEARS. Barbara Sheen Todd is on the board of the hospice. Also, Judge Greer's fellow judge, Judge John Lenderman is the brother of Martha Lenderman (also on the hospice board! See the Hospice Board members! Greer accepted as the basis of his rulings, the questionable testimony of Michael Schiavo (and his family) that Terri would wish to be killed, yet Michael never stated that before he got about a Million Dollars to care for Terri forever. Greer also accepted as the basis of his rulings, the "opinion" of a third doctor who just happens to be the brother of a close associate of George Felos, right-to-kill attorney, and very significantly, former CHAIRMAN of the hospice board! If there ever was a rigged court, Judge Greer's is it!"

Ok. Sorry. Yes she is conscious but Jeb needs to do something straightaway as she has gone without food or water since Oct. 18 at 8AM.

Jeb has the duty to uphold the laws of Florida. He has been notified that a murder is taking place in his state on his watch, to a defensless diabled person. She is being starved and dehydrated against her will, upon the false testimony that she is brain dead and wants to die. She is not either.

What's sad is this, after their loved ones die and the Hospice receives donations, they then channel the money to their for-profit software company, Suncoast Solutions:

And to think that the left has shoved down our throats a "woman has the right to choose."
"A woman has sole ownership and control over her body."
"No man can violate her right, not even her husband."

I'm sadly thinking that we are truly sheeple. If the rule of law cannot even save the infirm, disabled, aged, and brain damaged, then it is true when Edmund Burke said "all that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

Very interesting article.

A few hilights... Hospice of the Florida Suncoast acknowledged Wednesday that at least $1.9-million in charitable donations was funneled to a software company owned by the nonprofit hospice...Labyak initially told the St. Petersburg Times on Tuesday that no charitable contributions were diverted to the software company...Labyak acknowledged it came from donations. But because it was a loan to be repaid with interest, she said, it should not be considered a gift...Donors don't need to be specifically told because the software produced by the company enhances hospice's overall mission of caring for the terminally ill in Pinellas, Labyak said...Records show the $1.9-million loan was first approved on May 30, 2001, by the Hospice Foundation of the Florida Suncoast, hospice's fundraising arm, for "extraordinary cash flow needs." The following day, hospice's board approved the $1.9-million payment to Suncoast Solutions...The suit said Suncoast Solutions is unprofitable, but Labyak says it has been profitable for two years. But hospice's records don't bear that out, Alpert said...The subsidiary has sold software to about 100 other hospices...Labyak serves as the company's president...In addition to her hospice salary of about $183,000, Labyak collects a $20,000 salary from Suncoast Solutions.

If you haven't seen this video of Terri interacting with her mother, you MUST take a couple of minutes and watch this. She is loved, and she loves...she feels, she hears, she understands -- that is absolutely, unquestionably obvious. Interestingly enough, in the background is Whitney Houston singing Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You."

May God make Terri's last meal at 8:00 on Wednesday morning keep perpetuating sustenance, like He did with the five loaves and two fishes.

I'm sadly thinking that we are truly sheeple. If the rule of law cannot even save the infirm, disabled, aged, and brain damaged, then it is true when Edmund Burke said "all that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."

I have similar thoughts, sorry to say.

The rule of law is not the problem ... the laws stand firm. The problem is a feckless chief executive in the one-third co-equal branch of Florida's government. This is not an issue of the governor not having legal standing, it is an issue of the governor failing to act upon his sworn duties.

If you read the amicus brief he filed on Terri's behlf, you see that his own legal team devined the essence of this controversy, yet the governor is refusing to act on that which he has the full legal authority to do, which is suspend (not cancel, for that would be a violation of his powers) execution of a suspect judge's ruling which will result in irreversible consequence should the ruling be fulfilled then later findings cancel the judge's ruling authority.

Judge Greer has failed miserably to exercise his state's guardianship responsibilities regarding the guardian HE appointed for the now ward, Terri Schiavo. Greer has aided and abetted the raiding of Terri's rehabilitation trust fund, has refused to hold Michael Schiavo to even the minimum standards for guardians, and failed to remove a guardian the judge knows is defrauding and abusing via neglect the ward whom the judge placed in Michael's care! THAT injustice is the responsibility of the governor to address for investigation. He would not be cancelling the judge, merely suspending execution of the ruling of the corrupted, malfeasant judge until thorough investigation can occur! I now accuse Governor Bush of malfeasance, failing to fulfill his oaths tot he state and federal constitutions and to the citizens of the state of Florida. as chief law enforcement officer for the state, if he doesn't hvae the authority ... well, there's not a grain of rice in China! His feckless excuse drivelling is sickening.

Looks like permission from Medical Examiner will be needed to cremate Terri's body

I'm surprised the RIAA vultures haven't filed a copyright complaint.

Seeing Signs of Life (Terry Schiavo On Karen Ann Quinlan)

Well, there is the Prayer Thread for Terri, which is going to be sent to her family. There are also a couple of other threads that have been pretty active, but there does seem to be a concerted effort to impose a media blackout on this story.

From your Florida Statutes link:

"Forensic Investigators serve as the first line of contact for any person reporting a death or requesting transport of a body from a traumatic death scene. The investigator on-call will typically respond to every traumatic death scene in which the body has not been moved to the hospital including drug overdose cases and traffic fatalities. The primary purpose for scene response will be to gather information, obtain photos for immediate review by the pathologist prior to autopsy, and assist with coordination of schedules for body transport and autopsy. If the scene involves a homicide, infant or suspicious death, the pathologist on-call will also respond. The investigating officer should remember that postmortem changes occur with time and may prefer to notify the Forensic Investigator in an expeditious manner to assist in a timely assessment of the body:

"…It is the duty of the law enforcement officer assigned to and investigating the death to immediately establish and maintain liaison with the medical examiner during the investigation into the cause of death."(s. 406.14, Florida Statutes, Emphasis added)"

The following information is necessary at the time of the call to this office when requesting investigator response to the scene in traumatic or suspicious deaths:

circumstances as to the type of death being reported, i.e., apparent suicide, apparent homicide, traffic fatality, apparent overdose, etc., and location of the scene."
