Terri to be Cremated on Husband's Orders

Terri Schiavo will be cremated immediately after her death on orders from her husband, Michael, her brother and sister revealed late Saturday, precluding any possibility that an autopsy could determine whether her brain damage was caused by a heart attack or physical abuse.

Terri's siblings, Suzanne Carr and Robert Schindler Jr., told Fox News Channel's "The Big Story with Rita Cosby" that they'd like the authorities to examine the circumstances of the events that caused their sister's brain damage, based on medical reports that show she sustained several broken bones and a neck injury consistent with strangulation.

Terri's brother said, however, that her husband, Michael, has "instructed the judge to cremate her body upon her death, which adds even more suspicion to what really happened to Terri."

He added, "We're trying to stop the cremation from happening if Terri does die, so hopefully, we get to the process of investigating what may have happened to Terri that evening."
