absent knowing, we must err on the side of life

I certainly cannot see how disputed testimony from credible witnesses with zero corroboration can rise to the level of "clear and convincing" evidence.

If Michael Schiavo says, "she wants to die," and Terri's parents say, "she wants to live," and there's zero other evidence, then the scales of justice aren't tipped in either direction. If the evidence is in equipoise, then the motion must be dismissed and the parties remain in the status quo.
