Judge Greer and Attorney Gibbs: Death Order Doublespeak

Doublespeak is "language deliberately constructed to disguise or distort its actual meaning, often resulting in a communication bypass. Such language is associated with governmental, military, and corporate institutions."(1)

The purpose of this article is to decode Judge Greer and Attorney Gibbs' death order doublespeak and translate it into straight language.

Many of us are becoming aware that the elderly and incapacitated are being quietly eliminated in hospitals, nursing homes, and hospices via the removal of their feeding tubes. Some are being denied regular food and water as well. This is being done "quietly" because withholding naturally ingested food and water is against the law in all 50 states. Presently no judge in the United States of America can cite any statute that renders him the authority to order the death of a person who is not a death-row inmate. Furthermore, there is no Florida law that states that an incapacitated person may be denied regular food and water. To the contrary, the Florida statutes prohibit such an act.

Judge George W. Greer is well aware of that and has never issued a court order to withhold regular food and water... until now.

Let us look at Judge Greer's apparently legal court orders to remove Terri's nutrition and hydration tube and then we will compare them to his current illegal court order.

In this "death order doublespeak" expose' we are going to document Judge Greer's progression toward euthanasia by noting the changes in the wording of his court orders. We will also identify the doublespeak that is being used to hide this fact.

Judge Greer has issued several court orders for the removal of Terri Schiavo's feeding tube. The few that I have been able to locate on the internet are cited below.

Let us first look at a letter Michael Schiavo's attorney wrote to Judge Shames regarding the removal of Terri's "medical treatment."

May 6, 1997:Letter from Deborah Bushnell to Judge Shames:

The guardian is aware that the issue of withdrawal or refusal of medical treatment for the ward is a difficult issue in this case and that the ward's parents will need to be involved.

(Quote source: Letter from Attorney Bushnell to Judge Shames)

Deborah Bushnell's letter was written in regard to the removal of Terri's "medical treatment." At the time this letter was written, feeding tubes were not medical treatment in the state of Florida.

George Felos, attorney for Michael Schaivo, filed a petition on May 11, 1998 to discontinue Terri's artificial life support. This petition was filed eleven months before feeding tubes were legally defined as medical treatment.
