hope these parents sue this bastard for every dime he has..

I would love to see the insurance company sue to get their money back. After all Michael Shiavo sued them for money to provide care and therapy for Terri. He also sued for the loss of consortium. He failed to use the money he won for the purposes that it was granted and as for the loss of consortium he found someone for his bed pretty darn quick.

I worked with a woman who had won money for her brain damaged child. She was required by the courts to provide a yearly accounting of how the money was spent. The insurance company that paid the award money had insisted on this. But, most likely, the insurance company that paid Terri's malpractice award has washed their hands of the matter.

And I'm coming at this from the perspective of someone who generally abhors lawsuits because they have become so abused. Lawsuits should be reserved IMO for cases involving clear neglect and where people are clearly damaged. What can be more damaging than not being allowed to feed your child while she is being starved to death. Its not about money bur accountability.

Okay, what I heard two years ago, was that Jodi's family owned the insurance company that paid the Schiavo claim. Then, that company went bankrupt.
