Dueling Schiavo Books to be Released

Both the Schindler family and Michael Schiavo have books coming out about the Terri Schiavo case. To me, the core legal problems faced by the Schindlers were the failure of the original trial lawyer to create an adequate trial record and the refusal of Judge Greer to truly apply a clear and convincing evidence standard to determining that Terri would want to be dehdyrated. As for the media: Its abiding refusal to report the many reasons why Michael should not have been permitted to remain guardian is a case study in bias and journalistic malpractice.
