You didn't ask me, but I have a keen legal mind, and this is one of the best ways to attack credibility.
BTW, do you guys know Greer is legally blind?
It helps the HINO that Greer is legally blind because otherwise the obvious creep factor that oozes from the HINO may be apparant.
MS -- the HINO -- is clearly not credible in MY court (if I had one... LOL)
The "keen legal mind" to whom I addressed my brief question states very early in the thread he is a trial lawyer - and that is the genesis of my question. Somehow that one item goes to the whole heart of this case, and it seems to me that anything he has advocated or stated about Terri is wrong to admit as evidence. The fact that Judge Greer has not struck all such evidence, and never sought independent advice and fresh, modern testing on Terri's behalf leads me to believe he is not viewing this case with dispassion, and has become too strongly invested in her death by now to hear this case.
I honestly don't know what the outcome of such testing would be, but it seems very wrong to disallow it in the face of all the suggestive testimony that the other side has brought to the table, but that he has repeatedly struck. A new judge is needed - to save Greer from a place he has gotten himself into that he really can't budge from now.
The funny thing is, that if HINO's supporters REALLY wanted THE COUP in this case, that they ought to graciously allow Terri's parents to take custody -- banking on their absolute faith that she'll always be a vegetable in decline -- and wait for the day the parents themselves ask the court for the right to end her life. Then they'll really be able to say, "we told you so".
