Can the popular Schiavo prevent others, namely the Schindlers, from writing their own books? I understand that Cheryl Ford and Mark Fuhrman are the only ones who have been able to write books about the case, but I don't understand the limitations regarding estate rights.
No, but he can block their access to any material controlled by Terri's Estate. With book and movie rights, her estate may be worth millions. If he'd given her a divorce, he would have lost all that. It was laughably easy to predict he'd kill her instead of letting her go and getting on with his life.
There will be other books. People well may be writing about Terri's case five hundred years from now. We never forget martyrs or infamies. Terri's murder was both.
