Did the final autopsy report come out yet on Terri Schiavo?

[PlanetBev]

Supposedly, they were going to release information about three weeks after the autopsy detailing the condition of her brain.

Even if the autopsy showed that the brain was completely dead and she was a full-tilt asparagus, the fundies would still say that she was looking forward to golfing with her family.

1. They need more time to doctor the results

No pun intended...But the radical clerics are hard at work twisting the findings to support their preconceived notion that she was starved....

2. There was an article from

the NYTimes where it said they didn't find any signs of abuse. Sorry I don't have the link handy, but try google.

Abuse claims unsubstantiated

A Times Editorial
Published April 20, 2005
Allegations that Terri Schiavo had been abused or mistreated were international news in the final days of her life. Now the truth is being revealed about those baseless charges, but nobody is paying attention.

Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Judge George Greer ordered the release of nine abuse reports compiled by the Department of Children and Families at the request of the St. Petersburg Times and other news organizations. The reports list 89 complaints between 2001 and late 2004 about Schiavo's care, including dozens that came in around the time her feeding tube was removed for short periods in 2001 and 2003.

The number of complaints substantiated by state investigators who made unannounced visits to Schiavo: 0.

4. Schiavo won't even be remembered in a year or two except by the fundies

I predict that by 2006 the only side that will be able to use Schiavo as a call to arms will be the Repubs. The majority of those who were in favor of Michael honoring her "wishes" will not use this as a motivating issue in deciding who to vote for come 2006 or 2008.
