The rhetoric is off the charts, but on the other hand, I see no way that this judge could have concluded that the testimony of the husband that Terri would have wanted to die is "clear and convincing evidence" by itself. To me, it looks like the court just made a judgment that this woman's life is not worth living. That is a judgment that our courts are not authorized to make.

Others gave similar testimony.

To me, it seems that you, like many others commenting here, choose to base your opinions on emotions and not on facts.
