A man has been arrested and charged with offering a $250,000 reward for killing Michael Schiavo.

It is a shame that well intentioned people choose the wrong methods to accomplish their goals.

This event does bring a question to mind, though.

Michael was by law designated Terri's guardian when she became incapacitated. As her guardian he instigated the judicial murder of his wife.

It is my understanding that guardianship first goes to the spouse, then children and then parents.

Terri and Michael do not have any children that I'm aware of, making her parents next in line to her guardianship.

Would not a fatal heart attack suffered by Michael automatically transfer Terri's guardianship to the parents, at which time they could reverse this death process?

Yep, If Michael drops dead, for any reason, before Terri dies then the parents get custody.

The scumbag Greer at this point would more than likely transfer guardianship to Felos! He is her judge, jury and executioner.

you know what's interesting is that in 2000, the same judge (Greer) had a similar case before him. A man was in a "PVS", and his children wanted to pull him off the respirator and feeding tube. He did have a living will, but his wife argued that she was seeing improvements with therapy and asked Judge Greer for more time to see if he'd recover. He orderd the man killed...
