Florida DCF Seeks 60-Day
Stay of Schiavo Death Warrant
McCabe Conflict Requires Special Prosecutor
Just read your latest article. You guys are handing over the case to the State of Florida on a silver platter.
New twists arise for Schiavo
Feb. 25, 2005
Herald Staff Writer
Excerpts from the report:
Richard LaBelle, a Dunedin attorney who works with the advocacy center, said the agency reviewed court files and other medical records that were readily available and presented them to a medical expert who said he needed to examine Terri Schiavo before deciding whether she had been mistreated.
LaBelle said the group needed Michael Schiavo's permission to examine his wife and didn't get it. LaBelle said he welcomed DCF's involvement in the case now.
"I think that as an advocate for persons with disabilities, I think any claims should be resolved before further action is taken," LaBelle said. "I think the line should be drawn in favor of pursuing a good faith investigation."

Ping me when confirmation is made. I'm off to pray a Holy Hour for Terri. BBL, then more appointments later in the afernoon.
Scoop is an inspiration and an example to all journalists in the world!!
Dig til you can't dig anymore. Dare to find the truth!! Don't be a minion to the politics that are so rampantly affecting what is reported!! Be a reporter if you claim to be one!!
I for one, am sick of the local media parroting the AP and am going to let them know they've lost the story of the year because they didn't have the guts to dare expose the fairly obivous government corruption!
They need to go read The Empire Journal and take some lessons on what a reporter is supposed to be!!
~ Amen ~
So the attorney, Richard LaBelle, for the "State-Appointed" advocacy group couldn't get the guardian to grant permission to the advocacy group and the DCF let it go.
Sounds like we need to get the Florida legislatures to pass another law whereby, the advocacy group has the power to overrule the guardian in an investigation of abuse.
This case is beginning to take on a life of its own.
I'm glad you called Sen. Hatch, and sorry if a staffer gave out wrong information. However, pc93 found them seemingly aware of the case, and filled them in some more, so that is good and confirmed by your call.
FV, I really think this boils down to whether Greer is rational or completely in the grip of delusion. If rational, he will find some fig leaf to change his findings about Terri, or at the very least, stay her death pending the 60-day DCF investigation of abuse and neglect of Terri.
Because if Greer starves Terri, it will be on the word of Michael Schiavo. And Michael will be the prime subject of these abuse/neglect allegations. What will Greer say...that he can't wait 60 days to starve her on Michael's word, even though she has lived for 15 years???
I'm not flatout predicting he won't rule that way; I am saying if he does, that proves the man is DELUSIONAL.
Bump
"I for one, am sick of the local media parroting the AP and am going to let them know they've lost the story of the year"
I'm doing something similar. I think it is important for us to contact the lame-stream media and expose them to The Empire Journal's excellent articles.
The Empire Journal will have the credit for being the first to break this story of corruption, but we need to get it in front of the lazy reporters in the mainstream.
Yes, it is!
Thanks on behalf of Terri!
Totally, agree. Judge Greer has been hiding behind the lamestream media, which is spoon-fed whatever Michael S. and Felos say to them.
He better wake up that the internet has picked up on this case and will expose the corruption in the State of Florida.
If he wants to go down with Felos and Michael, he can issue a ruling to begin the starvation and murder of Terri.

Associated Press Targets Terri Schiavo
Media repeats misrepresentations in Terri Schiavo case.
Clearwater, FL On February 24, 2005, Associated Press released a report penned by Vickie Chachere which cited an eating disorder as the cause of Terri Schiavos mysterious collapse and ensuing brain injury on February 25, 1990.
Contrary to the account of writer Chachere, there was never a determination by any court nor the Florida Department of Health that Terri Schiavo ever suffered from any eating disorder, bulimia, anorexia or compulsive behavior that would lead to a heart failure at the age of 26.
Indeed, Floridas Department of Health had completely and absolutely cleared Terris general practitioner of any negligence or wrong-doing in her case. This was after the physician had been accused by Terris husband of ignoring evidence of an eating disorder.
Additionally, at the time of her mysterious medical episode, Terri Schiavo stood 53 and weighed somewhere between 115 and 118 pounds a slim, but normal stature and weight.
Associated Press writer, Vickie Chachere cites not ONE medical document that would affirm her careless contention that Terri Schiavo was an irresponsible dieter or a compulsive victim of an eating disorder. The Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation asks Ms. Chachere to readily produce the facts upon which she penned such assertions.
The parents and siblings have repeatedly offered to media and press a copy of a bone scan conducted on Terri Schiavo just one year after her incident that reveals multiple sites of trauma and broken bones throughout Terris body. Neither the law enforcement agencies nor the media or press have made any effort to investigate why Terri Schiavos body was seemingly broken by battery.
Instead, they perpetuate the unsubstantiated claims that Terri Schiavo suffered from an eating disorder that rendered her healthy, 26 year-old heart incapable of carrying on.
Statement of Robert Schindler, Terris Father: "This is a slanderous accusation against my daughter with no basis in fact. Certain members of the press seem determined to spread misinformation to kill Terri."
The Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation is calling upon all of media and press to take up the task of investigating allegations of serious abuse against Terri Schiavo as are evidenced in the 1991 bone scan and well as ongoing violations against Terri under Floridas Guardianship Statutes.
FV SAYS: Remember the Eating Disorder article? THAT GAME WAS CALLED BLAME THE VICTIM. The AP appears to be pushing the propaganda machine for the death lobby and the aclu.
Terri's foundation is still located at:
Terri Schindler-Schiavo Foundation
