Indisputable—BUT--
Judge Greer has rested his final and immovable judgement to kill Terri on his ruling that Terri's wishes are being carried out thru the agency of her husband, Michael Schiavo.
Unfortunately, Greer himself has admitted that he committed a devastating mistake in coming to his conclusion--but he will not use his new discovery of his error to save Terri's life.
Rather--he now shoves his mistake back underwater and allows Terri's killing to continue.
Since all other judicial rulings have been made on the legal technicalities of the case and no Court whatsoever has done the novo or new examination of the facts--including the testimony that could save Terri's life--as required by Congress, Judge Greer's invalid foundation upon which he rests this case has never been challenged.
Judge Greer has ruled to eliminate eyewitness testimony that Terri, responding to TV coverage of the Karen Ann Quinlan unplugging , stated explicitly that she, Terri, would never want to be disconnected and hurried off to death.
Based on these verbal statements, Terri's wishes are being directly violated by Judge Greer's death decision.
Reversable error on the face of it.
The major argument on which Judge Greer's whole case rests is that plug-pulling fulfills Terri's wishes thru the agency of her husband.
Greer's admission of a wrongful ruling on Terri's wishes goes directly against--in fact, completely undercuts--the rationale for killing Terri.
We are on the brink of witnessing a true case of judicial homicide.
