Charlie Crist Let My Daughter Die
by Robert Schindler, Sr.
Posted July 31, 2006
As most Americans know, on
Florida Atty. Gen. Charlie Crist let my daughter die. He had it within his authority to save her life, but he turned a blind eye to her suffering. Even worse, he worked to ensure her death.
Terri lived in a neurologically compromised state for reasons that are still unknown, and my family wanted nothing more than permission to care for Terri for the span of her natural life. We were denied.
My daughter tenaciously fought for her life for more than 13 days after being deprived of the most basic, natural and constant need that we all share—the need for nourishment—food and water. Terri was not on a respirator, nor terminally ill. She was not dying, nor succumbing to a dreadful disease. She was disabled. She was dependent on others, but still very much a life, a woman, and a person.
Over the course of several years, our family, our lawyers, and our friends pleaded for help from local, county, and state police and regulatory agencies with constitutional and statutory authority to investigate the many sworn statements of extreme abuse and neglect suffered by our daughter.
Hoping to save my daughter’s life, our family sought the help of Attorney General Charlie Crist. Not only did Charlie Crist refuse our family lawful access to the assets of his office, but he violated his oath of office by actively cooperated with those in positions of political and judicial authority whom denied us legal access to the police and regulatory systems meant to protect the weak. Multiple sworn agents from responsible police and regulatory agencies who found probable cause to investigate allegations of abuse in Terri's judicial and physical care, were ordered to shut down those probes. This heavy-handedness made us powerless.
Information of direct interest to Attorney General Charlie Crist's office was directly delivered to his personal hands, and he refused to properly execute the duties of his office. And it was with deliberate decision that he failed to attend a scheduled
That callous action encapsulates Charlie Crist. He walked away from a man whose daughter’s fate he controlled. At that moment, he turned his back on Terri. And he turned his back on the most fundamental duties of his office.
It is quite clear that Charlie Crist, to this day, has demonstrated no public affection for the cause of life, or Christianity, or any set of core values. He has been posturing to become governor for decades. With each voting audience he has crafted a message based on the expediency of the moment.
To add insult to injury, at a recent banquet, our alleged pro-life candidate for the Governor of Florida said the following about Judge George Greer and other judges involved in the death of my daughter, "You are heroes to all of us, and your defense of the judiciary and what is right is beyond admirable."
Through his actions, Charlie Crist has demonstrated that he has no regard for our most vulnerable citizens, the high duties of public office, or life itself. Charlie Crist’s celebration of the merciless judges who condemned Terri to death speaks to his true character.
Mr. Schindler is the father of Terri Schiavo, who suffered from a neurological injury for 15 years before dying March 31, 2005, from dehydration. Her family valiantly fought to keep her alive after a judge ordered her caretakers to stop providing nutrition or hydration.

I am leaving this here because it is full of inaccuracies.
The autopsy proved nothing of what you have stated. The autopsy did show that there was brain damage, and after 13 days of dehydration with the brain damage, Terri's brain weighed less than a non-damaged brain that had been hydrated would.
There has been comparisons made of the weights of Karen Anne Quinlan's brain and Terri's, but I remind you and all who read this that Karen Anne was NOT starved nor dehydrated to death, or at any time in the years she lived after her brain injury. Karen Anne was fed the entire time. Terri was not. Tissues, including brain tissue, shrink when dehydration takes place, and therefore, weigh less, take up less space, etc.
Terri was not brain dead, and her brain did not die 'years before' the court ordered her execution by dehydration/starvation.
There is nothing merciful in that type of death. It is precisely why anyone who starves/dehydrates an animal is placed under arrest and fined/jailed/or imprisoned.
Disabled people are not dead. Brain injuries do not make someone DEAD, they make someone disabled.
Either you read the autopsy incorrectly, or you have no medical knowledge and did not understand what you were reading... OR you never read it and are going by misguided press reports and by into the propaganda issuing from people like Felos.
Finally, there is a diagnosis in your statement that you are not able to make, even if licensed, without personally knowing Mr Schindler and doing a psych consult on him. An RN/LPN is not able to diagnose, and often, either are MD's in the area of psychiatry. No medical person would dare to diagnose from a distance as you have attempted to do, and if they try, they are going beyond the scope of practice for their licensure.
