T'wit has responded on posts # 42 and 55. Both he and bjs1779 have done extensive and careful looks into the events of that night, conclusions which are similar to your assessment. They had developed those conclusion in posts past based on evidence available, such as that provided by Cheryl Ford in her book, "Our Fight 4 Terri." As the case is still carried in the Homicide division at the St. Petersburg Police Department as Cold Case, perhaps it is not over yet. However, Judge Greer has made reopening of the case tenuous by his personal intervention. He has ordered that this and other cases related to Michael Schiavo not be reopened, as they claim.

Perhaps some good is to come of the tragedy of Rebecca Riley's death, made more open by the horrors visited upon Haleigh Poutre and sprung into the limelight. Perhaps the pendulum has swung far enough and now may be arrested as the topic exceeds the bounds of this case and reaches far and wide.

(CBS) Rebecca Riley's death shocked the Boston community. Did her parents deliberately give her overdoses of psychiatric drugs as prosecutors suggest? Or are her doctors to blame — as defense lawyers argue — for prescribing powerful medications when she was just 2 years old?

This case has reignited an emotional debate about mental illness in children. How young can children be diagnosed? And how aggressively should they be treated with anti-psychotic drugs?

“My worry is the same worry that any parents of kids like mine have — When is it too soon to medicate a child? Who knows?” says Susan Montanile.
