The Terry Schiavo Story Shares New Information on the Case

Filmmakers have released a new documentary which they say reports previously unexplored facts about the legal battle surrounding Terri Schiavo while exploring her death’s ethical and cultural implications. One disabled woman connected with the film said “countless people” face pressures similar to those that killed Schiavo.

Terri Schindler Schiavo, who was severely brain damaged after a cardio-respiratory arrest, in 2005 died from dehydration 13 days after a court ordered the removal of her feeding tube.

Her story is the focus of “The Terri Schiavo Story,” distributed by Franklin Springs Media and produced and directed by Ken Carpenter.

Speaking in a press release, Carpenter said he thought most people believed Schiavo had no prospects of improving.

“The truth is the doctors believed Terri was a candidate for rehabilitation, but her husband withheld that treatment,” he claimed. “Additionally, we uncovered that only one judge ruled on the facts of the case.” Article.
