This case has been hashed out and every court comes to the same conclusion - right or wrong, it's her husband's decision. They can't or won't look into whether he's morally the appropriate person to make the decision, whether he's moved on or has ulterior motives. Legally, it's his decision, and that's that.

That's what's driving Freepers nuts - this is one of those times they want the courts to be activist and not follow the law.

The courts created this "right of the husband...." I wonder when this right will be applied to a wifes lack of a will? ....Where is the living will that formally documents the wishes of the wife?

Scott Peterson should have tried your defense. I can see it now "Laci wanted me to kill her. If she was able to speak, she would tell you herself - you will just have to take my word for it." - Scott Peterson using the kill Terri defense.


How cares what a judge says, they want the power to kill and I'm against it in all cases - babies, seniors, disabled or criminals. And I don't care what the law says, I find it all disturbing.
