Please sign an online petition to Mr. McCabe demanding that he investigate here: http://www.zimp.org/mccabepetition.htm
I sent the information below to Mr. Bush in the Comments area suggested on the petition, which only took a couple of minutes:
This entire case rest on Terri's alleged statement that after Terri viewed a movie, she did not want to live that way, which was not revealed until several years later and after Michael got the 1.3 million award from the Jury and promised he would take care of Terri the rest of her life. Also Kathleen Quinlan was comatosed and on a ventilator (an artificial means to support life) -- Terri is not! -- even though the media has tried to give the public that perception. Surely, the average American knows what Comatose and Progressive Vegetative State means, both denied by physicians not working for Michael.
Sworn affidavits by care givers said Terri was able to take Jell-O, and sips of water, and even talked. They said she would say, "Help Me!" Mommy, Mommy!" Schiavo would ask them, "Is she dead yet?" and would be come extremely angry when told she was not. He told them to withhold treatment, even a wash cloth to prevent painful contractures of her hands, brush her teeth, or watch TV. Does this sound like a loving husband concerned with the best interest of his wife?
How often have we all said the same thing at one point or another? Even if she said it, which is contrary to what she told her girlfriend, a person has a right to change their mind. This is not even an issue for probate, because there is Advance Directive, POA, no living will, and nothing to probate. Judge Greer may not have had jurisdiction in the first matter, and certainly not the right to sentence her to death, according to State Regulations and Florida's Constitution already in place. It appears he made his own laws from the bench, instead of interpreting and acting on existing laws in the State of Florida.
A PERSON EVEN HAS THE RIGHT TO RESCIND A WRITTEN LIVING WILL UP UNTIL THE MOMENT OF DEATH, as long they are lucid. When Terri was told they were going to remove her feeding tube, she realized that meant her death. She's alert, aware, responsive, and demonstrated her opposition to dying by attempting to get out of her wheel chair. Her father has the video, which Judge Greer forbid him to show, as if it were a matter of national security. What does he want hidden?
The judge has abused his power, by adopting a liberal activism for "culture of death" and bias as a member of the Hemlock Society while on the Board of Woodside Hospice. Terri was brought into his county under his jurisdiction by her abusive husband documented by multiple fractures and evidence of strangulation revealed by a physician, but never investigated. He had attempted to kill her on several other occasions, denying her antibiotic treatment for infections as well as injecting her with insulin, miraculously saved by a nurse in her sworn affidavit.
It is frequently asserted in press accounts that Terri had a "heart attack." This too is false. There was no heart attack, and again, doctors have testified to that fact. A heart attack causes the release of certain enzymes into the bloodstream. These enzymes are readily discovered in tests and are used as the "markers" of a heart attack. No such enzymes were found in Terri's bloodstream, nor any other evidence of a heart attack.
The fact that Judge Baird had already made up his mind about without a hearing or trial before you could present your side of the case, and has made remarks outside the court, which is highly irregular and improper. It appears to indicate he is biased, the case is tainted, and it has been pre-adjudicated. Baird should recuse himself immediately.
This case becomes more bazaar, convoluted, and conspiratorial with each update. It does not bode well for our judicial system in America, and "appears" Felos is creating a maniacal and diabolical legal vortex from which there is no escape, and it "seems" he is being allowed to make a mockery of the best court system in the world with immunity and impunity. Not only is Florida and America watching this travesty of justice, but so is the whole world.
From Dee: (Note: This 'judge' intends to play God on December 23rd; thinking that we'll all be so wrapped up in our Christmas plans that we won't pay attention -- foolish man with feet of clay that he is! Let's show him how many of us care about Terri!)
It is illegal to deprive an animal food and water, but not from Terri if they get their way. This is murder!
It appears to be the beginning of a Hitler Eugenics Program used in to kill all disabled persons in Nazi Germany, but Euthanasia is ILLEGAL! -- according to Florida State Statutes.
This is not a matter of "Right to Die" but a "Right to Murder." It's no longer "We the People" but "We the Judges."
Mr. Bush, please investigate Michael Schiavo and his conflict of interest, as by evidence of his neglect and willful estrangement from Terri, while cohabitating for years with his live-in mistress in illegal adulterous relationship, and fathered two of their children out of wedlock. Also his co-conspirators who appear guilty of "conversion" after siphoning money for fat legal fees from Terri's trust fund earmarked for her care.
What happens when the protectors (our judges) become the predators and permit or endorse the killing of innocents?
Use you executive powers, and give Terri back to her parents who love and want her and not her money, now that Michael does not. He needs to move on with his life and new family instead of projecting his "apparent" frustration and guilt manifested as anger and aggressive behavior at Terri who is not responsible for his dilemma. It will solve the whole issue, and save taxpayers thousands, if not a million in legal
