Schiavo autopsy results to be released Wednesday

[onehandle]

The autopsy is also expected to reveal what condition Terri was actually in when she died. Her parents insisted that she was minimally conscious, but most medical experts agreed that her apparent responses were involuntary movements.

Now that the MJ circus is over, expect this to bury the Downing Street Memos for a while.

1. Who is responsible for releasing the autopsy?

I understand the examiner will be conducting the press conference, but who set up this lousy timing?

13. The examiner.

He took his time because he knew it was important. I expect he'll have a lot to say that will once and for all hold up the value of medical science. The members of Congress who tried to push through fundy legislation on this should be ashamed of themselves. They had NO idea what was going on.

2. Ah-ha!! The next MSM re-direct makes it's appearance!!

..and just in time.... :eyes:

[central scrutinizer]

10. no, it's too early

I am sure there are still several days worth of Jacko bullshit in the hopper. Rove will get it rescheduled for Friday when he wants to drown out some really bad shit.

3. Oh boy, just in time to stir up more trouble

from the religious right wing and to help overshadow Conyers hearing on Thursday. Go figure......

4. I can't imagine how an autopsy

could show what her level of consiousness was.

[rox63]

6. But it will show

How much of a brain she had left. Below a certain threshhold, there is no chance of consciousness.

5. What's the point

She's dead, Jim.

7. un-oh, I hope that doesn't mean bush is planning to bomb Iran on Wednesday

[uppityperson]

8. DSM happenings Thursday

aren't coincidences wonderful? so are statistics.

[mondo joe]

9. "Schindlers to follow with a request to reinsert feeding tube into ashes,"

Most likely.

16. I love your dark sense of humor n/t

[moobu2]

11. I think the autopsy will cover some of the other

issues other than her brains capacity for consciousness like the bone fractures and so forth. The Schindlers claimed the bone fractures were evidence of some abusive trauma Terri suffered that landed her in that condition to begin with etc...

12. Please don't compare this to the MJ case. The fed. government

stepped into private medical decisions in the case of Schiavo. It was only the courts that saved us from that.

It's extremely important, and some lies will be revealed when the autopsy results come to light.

It won't detract from the DSM. If the media finally decide to cover DSM, they'll cover it. If not, they won't. It won't have anything to do with these autopsy results.

17. You give the corporate whore press way too much credit n/t

[FreedomAngel82]

14. I thought they were already released?

I remember reading an article in the NYTimes that the Florida child agency did an autopsy and they didn't find any signs of abuse. So what's up with this shit? Our "news" is now the national enquirer. Disgusting. How I long for something like the BBC.

15. Should be interesting...

I wonder what the topic de jour will be tomorrow?

11AM press conference...that's the whole afternoon and evening.
