A friend of Terri Schiavo's says the disabled woman frequently had bruises on her arms and legs prior to her collapse in 1990. The comments lend further evidence to allegations that Terri's estranged husband Michael abused her and that those actions caused her current condition.
Jackie Rhodes worked with Terri at an insurance company's office. Rhodes revealed that Terri and her husband had a heated argument on the evening prior to February 25, 1990, when Michael supposedly woke up to find Terri unconscious in the hallway of the couple's St. Petersburg home. Rhodes told Fox News that Terri called her in tears after the fight and she confirmed other accounts of Terri saying she and Michael had discussed a divorce. Rhode testified in court during a previous hearing that Michael frequently made derogatory comments about Terri.
A bone scan conducted on Terri one year after she collapsed found possibly physical trauma indicating potential abuse. After Michael and Bob and Mary Schindler began their legal battle in 1998, local authorities said the scan was too old to investigate. The Florida Department of Children and Families hoped to half Terri's starvation death for 60 days to look into various accusations of abuse and neglect, but Judge George Greer denied the requests.

The cranial scan also revealed that there is a shunt at the base of Terri's skull which had to have been inserted after her initial collapse. No one has explained that one either...
One would think that if MS had nothing to hide, he/Greer would have allowed the scans, medical examinations, etc, to prove his point. Same for not allowing cameras, exams in these recent weeks. If what he said was true, all he needed to do was show it and none of this protest would have happened... but he didn't... There are just too many questions that a sincere man of integrity with love for his wife and her family would never have to endure... I don't know of a faithful, loving husband in a good solid marriage who would ostracize, alienate and malign his wife's parents.
