Actually, I'm not even sure it's about the money anymore.

A very perceptive Freeper (I wish I could remember who) said that Michael Schiavo had originally started this simply for the money, but that Felos (his attorney, former Chairman of the Board of the hospice, and now a big pro-death looney) had somehow dragged him into the position of being his (Felos') main support. In other words, MS, despicable though he is, is essentially a hand-puppet for Felos.

The money is now mostly gone, spent on Felos and not on therapy. There may be an insurance policy, which MS refuses to confirm or deny.

But in any case, I think that what has happened to the odious MS is that he has gotten caught up by an even more odious person (Felos), and he's now gotten himself into a position where he can't bail.

Serves him right. But I hope that he will not be allowed to drag his wife down with him.

"Actually, I don't think its about the money any more."

I definitely don't think its about the money, and hasn't been for some time. If you recall, Terri started to begin to talk when she first had some rehab. MS then cut off all her rehab! I think he just wants to make sure she does not get to talk.....ever! WHY?

Oh, no. There is lots and lots of money. Remember, Florida is a community property state. That means half of everything Michael owns is Terri's. (And he owns a lot, even if he has moved some of it into his girlfriend's name and into "other less traceable investments.")

Doesn't this just BEG the questions....

What was the DATE that Michael and Felos connected up...and who initiated it....and did Michael remember that he wanted Terri dead, er, I mean that Terri wanted to die if incapacitated somehow, in relation to his assc with Felos?

Course it could never be proved that Felos talked Michael into making up this story...but hey....any man who goes for rehabilitation money and gets it after proving he is trying to rehabilitate her, THEN denys therapy AFTER winning the money for being such a good boy, and THEN remembers, YEARS later, that by gosh Terri did not WANT any rehabilitation or even to LIVE if she were to be incapacitated...is, well, FULL OF THE STENCH of trampling on Terri's RIGHT TO LIVE! And to LIVE COMFORTABLY as POSSIBLE!!!

Not, Not, Not! If MS divorces his wife, there is still the financial incentive that she is entitiled to half his estate. That being, his expenditure of monies used to build, or buy a $ 200,000- $ 300, ooo dollar home to house his most recentm "chippie," (and bastard babies) a BMW, and who knows what else.

Actually there is a good chance that there is quite a bit of money left. There was one suit that was won- granting 1.3 million dollars to Terri and Michael. The other suit was settled for "an undisclosed amount". Nobody knows how much he got from that settlement.
