Good. Does that mean when they affirm the trial judge, Freepers will come to grips with this story?

Sorry I will never, as you say come to grips, with the idea of a husband killing his wife under the protection of the courts.

Do you realize that this ENTIRE case hinges on the flimsy issue of her husband's word that she would want to be killed, with no witnesses, no corroboration, and in fact testimony to the very opposite by her family and the rest of the people in her life. Are you comfortable with that?

I agree with you that there is reason to be suspicious of the husband, but, for the sake of accuracy, Judge Greer relied on three witnesses, not just the husband.

This is patently false. Please get your facts straight.

Husband, and siblings in law as well. Yup. That testimony is elevated to be clear and convincing evidence of Terri's desire to be starved to death.

I am incredulous. If somebody came to me 6 years later, turned their position 180 degrees from where it was, I would assume they were lying. Greer wrote off Michael's change of heart. Very shifty.
