Burn any and all evidence before any federal investigation?
No judge, jury or politician can bring her body back.
A second autopsy by the family at their expense was denied: WHY?

It is even beyond outrageous. Rush got into this from the Toronto Free Press. Something truly stinks here. The stench of death is not from the patients.


Mainstream media unreported conflicts of interest in Schiavo tragedy
by Judi McLeod, Editor,
Thursday, March 31, 2005


Every time a rock is lifted in the Terri Schiavo tragedy, another conflict of interest comes slithering out.
The conflict-of-interest potential in the right-to-die connections among current figures involved in the case are only outdone by the Woodside Hospice board of director’s conflict of interest reality.

There’s the death-is-beautiful, right-to-die activist Michael Schiavo attorney George Felos.
Don’t make eye contact with Felos, who claims he can ascertain a person’s desire to die by "looking into their eyes" and letting their spirits speak directly to him.
A jumped-up volunteer at Woodside Hospice, Felos became chairman of the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, which runs Woodside, and only came off the board about a year after Michael Schiavo placed his estranged wife there.
Then there’s Dr. Ronald Cranford, handpicked by Michael Schiavo to examine Terri and on whose say-so Terri was categorized in "persistent vegetative state". Cranford is the MD who officially ordered Terri’s feeding tube removed on March 18. A neurologist, Cranford testifies in cases such as Terri’s around the country, always pumping the dehydration and starvation side. He was 1992’s featured speaker for the pro-euthanasia Hemlock Society, which was renamed The Choice in Dying Society. (WorldNetDaily).
Cranford nicknamed himself, "Dr. Humane Death".
A bioethicist, and a pioneer in euthanasia and right-to-die issues, Dr. Humane Death is a fully-fledged member of The Choice in Dying Society.
At least Cranford is not a board member of the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast.
Mary Labyak, CEO of Woodside Hospice has direct ties to the Euthanasia Society of America and Hemlock for Hospice, described by Hyscience.com as "an organization that seeks to accelerate the dying process."
Everett Rice, former Pinellas County Sheriff (1988-204) endorsed Judge George Greer for reelection in campaign ads. Rice, a former board member for the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, hired Michael Schiavo while Schiavo’s guardianship proceedings were being heard in the courtroom of his longtime friend, Judge George Greer.
Senator Jim King, who originally upheld the passage of "Terri’s Law", was a board member of Woodside.
Then there’s Gus Michael Bilirikis, Florida State representative 1998-2000 and between 2001-2003, who was on the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast board of directors.
As a county commissioner, Judge Greer was a working colleague of Barbara Sheen Todd (county commissioner) for eight consecutive years. Sheen Todd is also on the board of the hospice where Terri lingers.
Judge Greer’s fellow judge, Judge John Lenderman is the brother of Martha Lenderman, on the same board.
The mainline media has not reported on the myriad conflicts of interest connected to the Terri Schiavo tragedy, although any one interested can read about them on the Internet.

It was apparently a six-hour examination including full body x-rays.

I don't know if it was videotaped or not - the last I heard, it was not going to be - even though videotaping is the usual procedure in that county.

Schiavo will come out of this smug and scot-free because of the level of atrophy in Terri's brain, I'm sure.

People won't even stop to think that while it's true that brain tissue does not regenerate itself, it DOES create new pathways and new ways of learning.

That's why rehab works as often as it does in the case of brain damage - other areas of the brain pick up the usual work of the parts of the brain that are damaged.

The whole thing just sucks, start to finish.

Those men have one hell of a lot of questions to answer. Will it ever come about in this lifetime? I really, really doubt it.

What's especially sickening is that as more people became aware of all the unanswered questions surrounding Terri Schiavo's situation, the more the "polls" turned to an opinion that said, "When in doubt, go with the way of life."

How much differently could this have turned out if ANYONE with a big voice in the mainstream press gave a damn a month ago - two months ago? Seven years ago?

It's very difficult for me not to be bitter over this - our culture murdered a woman for NOTHING on the hearsay vow of a faithless husband, supported by ONE faulty judge and most of the media in this country.

Who's next?

Unfortunately, I am confident the so-called autopsy will be a white-wash. Not having an independent observer, such as Dr. Wychte (sp) says it all. No witnesses.

It's no wonder Mr. Schiavo and Felon ...er Felos were unconcerned. It's in the bag.

Disgusting.
