The Disability Rights Section of the U.S. Department of Justice has directed the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Health and Human Services to investigate a complaint filed in the Terri Schindler-Schiavo case to determine if alleged discrimination by a public entity violated the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 or Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
Terri Schindler-Schiavo died on March 31 at age 41 at Woodside Hospice in Pinellas Park, Florida, as the result of her estranged husband Michael Schiavo obtaining judicial approval to kill his wife by withdrawing her nutrition and hydration. She had been a resident at hospice since April, 2000, and although regulations require that she be certified terminal with less than six months to live, she was not terminal. She was disabled due to a brain injury sustained in 1990 as the result of a sudden collapse which has never been explained.
So, what does this mean FV? What kind of complaint? lately this has all been so silent i am beginning to wonder if there will ever be any suits filed about Terri or criminal charges ever brought against someone. I hate to see Terri's memory just fade away to so many.

Forgive me if I don't get excited. The dog and pony show has gone on so long, it's hard to expect any results different from the previous shows.
