But, when the paramedics and the sheriff's office showed up an labelled Terri's case a homicide, they didn't bother to examine Michael Schiavo to see if he had any bruises, scratches or contusions. And there's the matter of his now deceased mother-in-law who worked at the Sheriff's Dept. at the time. And, there's also the matter that I just remember. An attorney joined the death lawyers was a FORMER EMPLOYEE with the Pinellas County Sheriff's office.

Conflict of interest means nothing to Pinellas cronies. I can't remember his name but I attended the court hearing and he treated Terri's dad as if he had robbed a bank. It was disgraceful. Terri's dad had done nothing wrong but Michael's lawyers were trying to keep the Schindlers' from visiting Terri any way they possibly could. They didn't see Terri for approx. 60 days in 2004, the spring due to other false charges.

So, a bunch of liars killed Terri. Get a circus tent, maybe all the second rate nazis who helped kill her would fit. No, wait. That wouldn't be big enough because I forgot about the swat teams, etc. I didn't take pictures in 2005. There are plenty out there though. I called Terri's 2005 Vigil COP WORLD.

>> they didn't bother to examine Michael Schiavo to see if he had any bruises, scratches or contusions.

There's no particular reason to think he had any marks. She was doubtless asleep, so taken by surprise. She wouldn't have been able to understand what was happening, at least at first. He's a huge man, twice her size, and would have had no trouble putting her down. If he got on her back (as suggested by the two highly unusual injuries), she wouldn't have been able even to scratch him or fight back. (Imagine lying prone -- what can you do to someone on your back, pinning you?) She didn't have a chance.

What is impossible to understand is why the police accepted Michael's story that all was well between him and Terri -- that they didn't have any arguments. But both sides of the family and at least one close friend confirmed that the two were having a huge argument that day. Why didn't the police follow up? Why did they close their "investigation" in less than one hour?

Domestic violence is the number #1 cause of death and injury to young women. Police and emergency rooms MUST assume DV in a case like this. To this day there is no official cause for Terri's injury -- the coroner effectively ruled out the bizarre bulimia alibi (and that was a one-in-a-million shot anyway). Officially, Michael has no alibi.

We do have medical evidence of what happened, in the nature of her injuries and in her blood tests. The lactic acidosis revealed by her blood is a classic symptom of violent asphyxia. And interestingly, the hypokalemia that everybody heard about might also have been caused by violence.
