"Re: Your Empire Journal link - According to state statutes, DCF does not need a court's approval to initially take an endangered individual into protective custody. They can first remove the person and obtain emergency medical services and then file for additional protection for the individual in the courts.
Case law precedent was established in 1972 decision by the 2nd District Court of Appeals.
So, how is it that this is being ignored, the DCF backing off taking charge of this situation with Terri? And Jeb's attorneys not enforcing the DCF's rights?
Is it because Terri has already been "sentenced" to death?"
This is interesting. Does anyone have a fax to send it to Jeb Bush, or even Attorney Gibbs. I wonder if these people even read TheEmpireJournal. If they don't, they are nuts. TEJ does most of the work for them.
Can't believe, if what TEJ wrote is true, that Tallahassee doesn't know the statutes, case law precedent.
um, well, maybe I can believe it. Congress didn't know to make their decision all-inclusive rather than just for Terri.
I'll bump it again; maybe someone here will have a fax and send the following info:
