Prosecutor to probe Schiavo call ‘delay’

FLORIDA governor Jeb Bush said yesterday that a prosecutor has agreed to investigate why Terri Schiavo collapsed 15 years ago, citing an alleged time gap between when her husband Michael found her and when he called for an ambulance.

Mr Bush said his request for the probe was not meant to suggest wrongdoing by Michael Schiavo.

“It’s a significant question that during this ordeal was never brought up,” Mr Bush said.
