You have it wrong. He discounted it because he said Quinlan DIED when Terri was only 11 or 12 years old.

Her friend made a joke when Quinlan died some 9 years later and Terri did not like the joke or the fact that Quinlan's parents had disconnected her respirator years before.

THE JUDGE ADMITTED HE MADE AN ERROR.... but he doesn't care. SEE?

Well then you have it wrong too. Terri wasn't 19 when Quinlan died.
