Court Favors Euthanasia for Massachusetts Girl, Though She's Doing Better by Steven Ertelt LifeNews.com Editor January 19, 2006
Boston, MA (LifeNews.com) -- The Massachusetts state Supreme Court has ruled that a hospital can end the life of a badly abused 11 year-old girl, even though she is doing better and beginning to respond to stimuli. Haleigh Poutre was abused by her birthmother and placed in a foster care home with her adoptive mother and stepfather. The allegedly beat her nearly to death with a baseball bat, in what left Poutre in a comatose state.
Poutre was placed in state custody and state officials eventually decided she should be taken off life support. Though he had abused her, Poutre's stepfather Jason Strickland fought the decision.
The state Supreme Court ruled that allowing Strickland to fight the decision is "unthinkable" and it approved the euthanasia of Haleigh.
But now, news reports indicate the little girl is progressing.
Just one day after the ruling, Haleigh began breathing on her own and responding to medical stimuli.
Denise Monteiro, a spokeswoman for the state's Department of Social Services, told the Associated Press that doctors will conduct tests to see if she is truly progressing, which may change the situation.
"There's a possible change in her condition," Monteiro said Wednesday. "She's having some responses."
She confirmed to the Boston Globe Wednesday that the state does not yet plan to go through with removing her feeding tube.
Strickland's attorney John Egan told AP that he may bring the case to federal courts.
"This is exactly the point we were trying to make. What's the rush? Just give her a chance," attorney John Egan said. "Medical science is not that certain. We would hope the whole process will slow down, and everyone will step back and end the compulsion to end her life."
Read Michelle Malkin's column on her website. The girl was breathing on her own before the court ruling, but the hospital kept that fact hidden until after the ruling.
Where are all the Tookie protestors?
Old news.
The SC chief there is Lesbian.
She just set a Gay rapist free.
It's too bad the article has to have a bs headline, though. The court decision (if I read correctly) was made before she was known to be doing better. The headline clearly implies otherwise.
If this girl ever comes close to recovering to a point where she may get up an walk, I assure you, Kennedy would sent the personal Hitman to guarantee that doesn't happen.
MA, FL, it's all the same euthanasia. People want the disabled terminated, and they have courts to do their bidding. There may not be many things more unjust in America than her perverted court system.
Are all these judges on crack?
They worship a primitive death cult called "liberalism,' where they murder babies and defenseless sick people.
Probably after she found out the vote count.
Pretending to be honest.
Leftists keep murderers and terrorists alive, but terminate unborn babies and the infirm and elderly.
Possibly so, but she did write the decending opinion. O'Reilly gave her kudos on his show about it. Right before he went into some rant about how now he can marry some hot triplets.
Yet another opportunity for America to show respect for God and for life, and the Mass. "Supreme" Court thumbs its nose at both. This little child was determined to be a 'vegetable' but in fact she's getting better every day.
It's shocking to think that the "thumbs down" and execution comes so quickly for these unfortunate little ones, yet the Judges allow convicted murderers to stay alive for an entire generation to fight their death sentences. Mercy for the wicked and death to the innocent. How much longer will God let this go on without a Divine reprisal? Who do these people think they are?
Well yes, it's old news but it hadn't been put up so I decided to throw it up. It's still an important story.
Perfect! Quote of the day!
Are all these judges on crack?
..they are, and they are cold and heartless.
