The TRUTH is that grand juries make mistakes.
I am curious about why you are so reluctant to answer my question.
The slipperly slope is knowledge vs. intent. Every day, hundreds of terminally ill undergo pain management that everyone knows will hasten death. The purpose --intent-- is not to hasten, but to provide comfort, But the effect is still hastening.
People aren't answering you because they suspect you'll claim "knowledge" is "intent." And it's not.
Pain is a bad thing. Federal agencies are right now harassing hospitals because they do not treat pain aggressively. Hospital policies are forever having to swing back and forth between the accusation of "pusher" and "not caring enough about pain." One day the licensing guys are showing up "people are hurting" and the DEA says the next day "you're giving drugs to drug-seekers. Knock it off or we'll hassle you."
Nothing I've read even suggests to me that murder is going on. But anyone who knows about the dangers of long-term pain management for the suffering knows that aggressive management will hasten death.
SO wagglebee. Is knowledge intent?
The drips were probably not working due to the conditions. Likely the personnel had to administer by hand what they were used to administering by programmed technology.
Just remember--the spite you show to pain-mangement today may be policy tomorrow that you don't like very much.
It says everything to me that they stuck around. I'll bet the lawyers high-tailed it before they even checked their answering machines.
