They made fun of the mother of an anencephalic baby for being Christian and not having an abortion even though she knew she was having an abomination whose very existence was a mockery of humanity; they only harassed the father, because he was a deadbeat.

It wasn't the Christianity, except that it led her to make a stunningly bad decision. It was the fact that she blogged every day of Baby Faith/Hope/Charity/Whatever's life as she played dress-up with it, despite having to cover the open back of the skull with knit caps and taping the eyes in place to keep them from sinkng into the skull.

It was somehow worse than this girl, and most goons never met a shitshow they couldn't make just a little bit worse.

Also the father joined the forums because he heard he was an internet star.

Yep. The only thing mamma is in denial about is her chances of winning the lawsuit lottery.

Even "go away" money would be life changing for this family (these kinds of cases rarely make it to court - they're typically either settled or dropped way before that). If someone else is footing the bill for the futile care, then the only thing that's going to make mamma decide to pull the plug is developing a conscience about neglecting her other kids.

it didnt help that the father was just a massive piece of poo poo. He was street preacher evangelical who was married and took attvantage of the girl and knocked her up and basicaly hushed her up. then the baby comes out all hosed up and he uses it as pro-life platform and she follows suit because she is a sad fool.

I hope she meets a nice corpse boyfriend and the mom wears him like a suit and impregnates her daughter with his dangle and then the Churchies will be on the TV going SEE SEE and then the baby is stillborn.

then they hook the stillborn up to machines and pump fluids through it, and it's one big happy corpse family

I've started reading through the various legal finding for this case and it actually raises some interesting legal issues which are independent of whether the hospital hosed up and the motives of the parents for continuing the action.

In some ways it needs to go to trial to resolve some absurd contradictions which the case highlights.

The only thing mamma can't accept the loss of is the potential compensation bucks. That's all this charade is about and the "if she's dead I deserve money and if she's alive I deserve money" filings make that clear. Kid is 15. In the event the action on kid's behalf succeeded, who do you think gets that money when kid's body eventually fails (and it will)?

Mamma wants a much bigger pay day than she stands to get if kid is currently "dead". Kid needs to be "alive" in order for that to happen.

A far more interesting question is why the state of New Jersey is willing to pay for indefinite futile care. If they will do that for someone from out of state who is "dead", does that mean they do it for everyone in NJ indefinitely as long as there's a relative who wants futile care continued?

It's legally capped at 250 K in California. At a press conference, the uncle said that was 'chump change'.

It's legally capped for the relatives who have standing to sue but compensation for Jahi herself isn't capped. That's why the parents need her to be "alive". Big award for her, which they will inherit when her body gives up or they change their minds about futile care post-settlement.

Everything seems to be procedural stuff at the moment, so it's hard to assess the extent to which the hospital hosed up.

I assume she's just brain dead, but that her other bodily functions are working just fine, just no one home in the frontal lobe.

Well that whole breathing thing isn't working just fine, nor the eating thing.

Keep in mind that at the moment it's still about whether anyone has a cause of action. It's not even about whether the hospital hosed up yet. The hospital's response at the moment is essentially "even if we did, you have no legal cause of action".

I doubt this will ever get to trial, which means the objective facts will likely never be public.

Its a private religious hospital. they will keep the corpse "alive" as long as the mom wants. mama still wants victim buckx so it will be a long time.

I'm not feeling any more sympathy for mamma, daddy and grandma after reading the filings, but I'm sure feeling a lot less sympathy for the hospital.

I realise their lawyers were scrambling because they were facing an unprecedented situation, but holy poo poo if you wanted to write a manual on how not to deal with a situation which is likely to result in medmal litigation then this case would be a good starting point. If it ever goes to trial, a whole lot of statements made during the initial litigation are going to come back to bite people in the rear end.
