PINELLAS COUNTY--A key player in the Terri Schiavo right-to-life case, heard in the Pinellas County courtroom of Sixth Judicial Circuit Court Judge George W. Greer, will now be sitting on the bench in that same courthouse, having been appointed to a new judgeship earlier this month by Gov. Jeb Bush.
John Carassas , 39, of Palm Harbor, who was serving as a deputy to Attorney General Charlie Crist, was the former state representative from House District 54 from 2000-2003, a seat now held by former Pinellas County Sheriff Everett Rice (R-Treasure Island) who is now seeking the office of attorney general. District 54 covers parts of Belleair, Largo, Clearwater and St. Petersburg as well as the Pinellas beaches.

Terri's privacy rights were only upheld when they wanted to MURDER HER. When they wanted to talk about her at the ballgame, that was o.k. All of these judicial appointments in the 6th Circuit may be rewards for helping Florida's death care system bump off Terri, who was only 42 years old.
