I should also point out the fact that the videos with Terri responding were played in court. Michael’s lawyer had the volume muted. Judge Greer was blind. So he didn’t see or hear the video taped evidence.
Doesn't matter, because I doubt Greer would claim much expertise in the matter. If he thought he had some, he would have provided a way to "see" and hear the flicks. The judge, and judges in general, rely on those with an appropriate background in such matters to make such scientific medical judgements and concluisons. Certainly the plaintiffs were unable to counter any of the defense's medical testimony. That would have been an easy task, if there was any truth to there claims.
