I know a lot of you will disagree with me, but I think that because she had no chance of recovery, this was the best thing to do. She couldn't feel life, she couldn't recognize or think... basically, it's like she was in a deep sleep that whole time. I wouldn't want to be kept alive like that. I wouldn't want to be kept alive by artificial means like that.

I think it is sick and hitleristic for anybody to take a feeding tube off. I think you should be ashamed of yourself for having such an evil opinion. She did not deserved to be starved to death. Nobody does. You should be ashamed of yourself.

i was borderline...i think if they were going to kill they should have dont it humanely. like with a series of shots or something

 

[rakedog]

Considering she didn't feel a thing....... but yes I agree, they shouldn't have starved her... I never said I agreed with that. But even if they did, her body felt it, but her brain didn't.

I don't think anybody has a right to decide whether she should die. Now the husband got what he wanted. A lot of money out of this that was sitting in some trust fund.

 

[rakedog]

If I was the husband, I'd use the money on a memrial service, or something towards her, not for personal gain. Not everyone in that situation is evil you know... I doubt he was doing the whole thing just for money.

 

[Giancarlo]

From what i have heard he was... and it should of been up to the parents if she would be kept alive. This is a shameful day that the courts allowed murder to happen.

 

[rakedog]

I don't really see how you can possible justify this as murder.

 

[Giancarlo]

It is murder because she was starved to death.

and she was killed w/o her consent..murder. however, i also think that if you want to die you should be allowed assistance w/o that person getting in trouble, so...
