Michael: Block Bone Scan Showing Possible Abuse of Terri Schiavo

Pinellas Park, FL (LifeNews.com) -- Judge George Greer will hear a motion tomorrow filed by Michael Schiavo that would prevent discovery of information regarding a bone scan conducted on Terri Schiavo that shows she may have been a victim of physical abuse.

While most media outlets have reported that Terri Schiavo collapsed at home in 1990 as a result of a potassium imbalance, Terri's family has long suspected that the real cause may have been physical abuse at the hand of her estranged husband Michael.

A bone scan conducted on Terri in March 1991 showed she had several fractures and was the victim of "abnormal activity" that caused "previous traumas," indicating she may have been beaten or abused.

Attorneys for Terri's family had planned to depose Dr. Campbell Walker, the radiologist who conducted the bone scan, on Friday to obtain his further analysis of it.

Michael's motion asks the court to block the deposition saying that the court has already dealt with the bone scan in previous hearings.

Terri's parents Bob and Mary Schindler hope the information from Dr. Campbell will help show Judge Greer that Michael is unfit to be Terri's guardian. A case to change guardianship to Terri's brother Bob is pending before Greer.

The Schindlers have asked Pinellas County State Attorney Bernie McCabe on several occasions to call a grand jury to investigate the bone scan as well as other abuses during Michael's guardianship.

At the time, McCabe declined to investigate saying too much time had passed between the collapse and the scan.

Also, doctors other than those selected by Michael's attorney have reviewed Terri's medical records.

"It was found that a heart attack did not cause Terri's collapse as everyone was led to believe. Rather, according to one physician, Terri may have been a strangulation victim," Pamela Hennessy, a representative of the family, told LifeNews.com previously.

The Schindlers say Michael also wants to remove any possible evidence that could be used to substantiate accusations of wrongdoing.

Michael wants Terri's body cremated if she dies, which would deny any chance the family has to validate a long-held suspicion.

"Michael has instructed the judge to cremate her body upon her death, which adds even more suspicion to what really happened to Terri," Bob Schindler said.

He added, "We're trying to stop the cremation from happening if Terri does die, so hopefully, we get to the process of investigating what may have happened to Terri that evening."

In September, three nurses filed affidavits saying Michael has withheld proper medical care from Terri.

"He's been trying to kill her -- that's the bottom line," said Carla Sauer Iyer, a 39-year-old registered nurse who cared for Terri Schiavo at a nursing home in 1995 and '96. She says Terri has said words such as "Mommy," "help me" and "pain."

George Felos, the assisted suicide advocate who is Michael's attorney, calls the nurse's statements, "a bunch of garbage." He claims Michael has been insistent that Terri receive the best medical care possible.

Fine. State you real name, address and phone number, and declare Michael Schiavo and his attorney murderers and liars. I'll do the duty of sending it to Schiavo and his attorney just so you can get your test case started. Put YOUR money where YOUR mouth is, don't hide and scurry inside the walls of Free Republic like a bunch of cockroaches.

There are many reasons why people on the Internet generally do not post their names, addresses, and phone numbers. Among other things, there are always oddballs who think that such a posting constitutes an invitation to call at 3:00am. But as noted, it would not be hard for Felos et al. to sobpoena JimRob if there were anything actionable. On the other hand, since that would give the defendant of such a lawsuit basis to demand access to a lot of information Felos et al. are keeping secret, that seems unlikely.

BTW, Mr. Schindler has already openly made a public allegation against Mr. Schiavo. Why hasn't Mr. Schiavo acted against that one?

I am seeing two things that are compelling me to again give the warning that we are approaching Civil War II or the coming of the Lord here on Free Republic today. First we are seeing an attempt to monopolize the ENTIRE COMPUTER SOFTWARE INDUSTRY by a conspiracy between SCO amd Microsoft THROUGH THE COURTS. (The have recently added BSD and through it Apple to their parade of lawsuits/FUD). Now we are still seeing this attempt to legalize spousal abuse and murder THROUGH THE COURTS. This can only go in one direction folks DOWN!!!!

Guns, Linux and Liberty. ;c)

George Felos and Michael Schiavo are liars and evil monsters from hell. That's free speech and that's what we do here on FR. What are you talking about that it's libelous.

Sleep like a baby regarding the SCO vs The World, et. al. SCO is going to get crushed badly. They have just gone totally insane and are in a death spiral!!!

Their lawsuits are so faulty. Expect the one against IBM to get thrown out fairly soon.

For God's sake, Michael Schiavo went on Larry King Live and slandered the Schindler's. Maybe Mr. Schindler should sue Michael Schiavo for saying "he's in it for the money" and crap like that.

You're barking up the wrong tree here, pal. We're into speaking our minds and we're free to do it here. This is still a free country last I checked.

Go, Terri! LIVE ON . . .

I read your comments in others threads. You are a PRO-DEATH troll. I have zero respect for people like you and even an intense dislike.

Where's my can of Troll-Be-Gone?

Oh, for pete's sake! This empty boogey man threat was over and done with around Halloween time. After over 1,000 posts, JimRob relegated it to the Smokey Backroom where such garbage belongs. If you really want to continue a debate that's already been debunked and layed to rest, maybe you could talk to yourself over there. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-backroom/1007384/posts.

Oh, and let me just add this: Michael Shiavo is an attempted murderer and his attorney, George Felos, is complicit in attempted murder.

---------------------------

The attempts to kill her with "death with dignity" are an attempt to prevent the same information.

I hope the disabled advocacy agency also seeks epositions on the abuse allegations as well as deposing the radiologist regarding the multiple fractures Terri received that night. With a cloud like that hanging over the issue of the legitamacy of the so-caled husband as guardian it's hard to believe any court, even a Florida one, cou;d not realize a change of guardian is long overdue.

The rest of us are here to strongly support a women, who is very much alive, from being outright murdered be evil men!

Back away from the computer and go torture small animals if you feel the need to feed your fascination/love with death.

Michael has instructed the judge to cremate her body upon her death, which adds even more suspicion to what really happened to Terri," Bob Schindler said.

Only in Florida, do the plaintiffs tell the judges what to do.
