In This Era of the Death Cult, Remembering Terri Schiavo

Mainstream media unreported conflicts of interest in Schiavo tragedy

“Every time a rock is lifted in the Terri Schiavo tragedy, another conflict of interest comes slithering out. (Judi McLeod, March 31, 2005) “The conflict-of-interest potential in the right-to-die connections among current figures involved in the case are only outdone by the Woodside Hospice board of director's conflict of interest reality. “There's the death-is-beautiful, right-to-die activist Michael Schiavo attorney George Felos. “Don't make eye contact with Felos, who claims he can ascertain a person's desire to die by "looking into their eyes" and letting their spirits speak directly to him. “A jumped-up volunteer at Woodside Hospice, Felos became chairman of the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, which runs Woodside, and only came off the board about a year after Michael Schiavo placed his estranged wife there. “Then there's Dr. Ronald Cranford, handpicked by Michael Schiavo to examine Terri and on whose say-so Terri was categorized in "persistent vegetative state". Cranford is the MD who officially ordered Terri's feeding tube removed on March 18. A neurologist, Cranford testifies in cases such as Terri's around the country, always pumping the dehydration and starvation side. He was 1992's featured speaker for the pro-euthanasia Hemlock Society, which was renamed The Choice in Dying Society. (WorldNetDaily).

Cranford nicknamed himself, "Dr. Humane Death"

“Cranford nicknamed himself, "Dr. Humane Death". “A bioethicist, and a pioneer in euthanasia and right-to-die issues, Dr. Humane Death is a fully-fledged member of The Choice in Dying Society. At least Cranford is not a board member of the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast. “Mary Labyak, CEO of Woodside Hospice has direct ties to the Euthanasia Society of America and Hemlock for Hospice, described by Hyscience.com as "an organization that seeks to accelerate the dying process.” “Everett Rice, former Pinellas County Sheriff (1988-2004) endorsed Judge George Greer for reelection in campaign ads. Rice, a former board member for the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, hired Michael Schiavo while Schiavo's guardianship proceedings were being heard in the courtroom of his longtime friend, Judge George Greer. “Senator Jim King, who originally upheld the passage of "Terri's Law", was a board member of Woodside. “Then there's Gus Michael Bilirikis, Florida State representative 1998-2000 and between 2001-2003, who was on the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast board of directors. “As a county commissioner, Judge Greer was a working colleague of Barbara Sheen Todd (county commissioner) for eight consecutive years. “Sheen Todd is also on the board of the hospice where Terri lingers.

“Judge Greer's fellow judge, Judge John Lenderman is the brother of Martha Lenderman, on the same board. “The mainstream media has not reported on the myriad conflicts of interest connected to the Terri Schiavo tragedy, although any one interested can read about them on the Internet.”

"Conflicts of interest among key players in the Terri Schiavo controversy could give the United Nations oil-for-food investigation a run for its money," wrote canadafreepress.com Editor Judi McLeod. "Campaign contributors to the political campaign of district 8 [Jacksonville] Florida Senator James W. "Jim" King include Richard M. Jerger of Jerger & Centonze Insurance Agency. “McLeod also revealed that, "Senator King seemed in a rush for Terri Schiavo to depart planet earth," quoting from King in an earlier St. Petersburg Times report: "I believe that there is a heaven and that's where Terri is going to go, and that's a trip that's long overdue," the Senator said. King was the key sponsor of Florida's death with dignity legislation. "Had God not wanted what happened today, He would have intervened," King claimed, describing the failure of the Florida Senate to pass legislation preventing the euthanasia of Terri Schiavo. “McLeod further pointed out that Senator King is also an acting member of the board governing the Pinellas Park hospice where Terri Schiavo lived and died. “McLeod also revealed a conflict of interest from local Bishop Robert N. Lynch, whose diocesan legal firm contributed to the campaign to re-elect Florida circuit Judge George Greer. “McLeod concludes: "Meanwhile, if there are any key players in the ongoing Schiavo controversy who do not have a hospice board of director, right-to-die membership, or political campaign contribution conflict of interest to declare, would they please stand up?”

“What I will never forget are the feckless, callous corporate media lies about Terri and those who defended her. National outlets derided the Schindlers and attacked the “radical, antiabortion, right-to-life Christian right” for casting doubt on medical experts who wrote Terri off as hopeless and falsely mischaracterized her as “brain-dead” or on “life support.” (Michelle Malkin) "Here are the facts: As I reported in my 2005 column calling out the lying media liars at the time, Terri was on a feeding tube. A feeding tube is not a ventilator. Terri was breathing just fine on her own. She was capable of saying “Mommy” and “Help me.” And as many of her medical caretakers and parents have argued, if given proper rehabilitation, Terri could learn to chew and swallow on her own as well. She was disabled, not brain-dead. “The sooner we realize … that we are battling a systemic, radical, anti-life, anti-Christian value-system, the more we will understand it is now our urgent duty to defend the medically weak. If we don’t protect them now, it will be impossible to protect our own families if and when the time comes to do so,” Bobby Schindler warned this week. Terri’s murder at the hands of a cabal of liars and grifters is more relevant than ever as Big Pharma, Big Government, Big Tech and Big Media elites conspire to undermine medical autonomy in the age of COVID-19. As we have witnessed repeatedly over the past two years, the “Trust the Science” control freaks don’t take kindly — and never have — to dissident families who dare question their authority.”
