I don't know if Sean has any link to this one interview and claim that Randall Terry was making. I know I can't be the only one out there that remembers hearing this on the Sean Hannity show. From what I remember it was a recording of someone, might have been Randall, asking Teri if they wanted to live or die? After the question was asked you can hear Teri moaning, and then Randall says that Teri was saying that she wanted to live. Believe me I'm not like Charles Rangel who will make up facts to bolster their argument

I heard an interview on this, but I'm not sure it was the same one. I seem to recall whoever - might well have been Terry - moaning the words himself to illustrate.

You two need to stop pretending that this case has anything to do with "dying with dignity".

The time to decide to allow a love one to die is at and during the period of initial hospitalization. Most of us can agree that it is up to the spouse/family to make these extremely difficult and painful decisions. Few of us would have judged him wrong had he made this supposed "Terri wanted it this way" decision at the very beginning.

Had M. Schiavo done this during the first days/month of Terri's hospitalization, this would never have been news. However, this dispicable piece-of-garbage sued every doctor/insurance company he could find with the stipulation that the money would be used for "Terri's medical expenses and rehabilitation". This is a fact. He won a judgement of a million or two, iirc.

Then, years later, after committing adultery and fathering kids out-of-wedlock, he goes back into court and files a motion stating that Terri told him she "would never want to be kept alive on life support." Funny how the guy couldn't remember this at any stage of his lawsuits against the doctors who cared for Terri before the collapse.

Now tell me how killing your wife years after testifying in a prior court case that you'll do everthing in your power to help and rehabilitate her with the money you're suing to get, is the ethical/honorable thing to do?

I'm sorry that this woman never recovered. Regardless, it doesn't give him the right to kill her off because her long term care inconveniences him and his girlfriend. This was premedited murder by order the court, nothing more.
