Terri Schiavo's autopsy report released

Valued LST reader "bob" left the following comment today:
Funny you guys haven’t commented on the Schiavo case yet. Oh I see, when the medical evidence goes against your rhetoric you cower in a corner…
Whatever you say, "bob." Let's look at the report. Remember the husband's claim that an eating disorder caused her collapse? You can write that one off:
Terri Schiavo's body did not show any signs of trauma or other criminal activity that would explain her brain injury, nor was there evidence to support previous diagnoses of a heart attack or an eating disorder, the Florida medical examiner who conducted her autopsy said Wednesday.
That's interesting, considering Michael's earlier claims:
Her husband, Michael Schiavo, was awarded nearly $2 million in judgments and settlements in a medical malpractice lawsuit claiming that the collapse was caused by a heart attack triggered by a potassium imbalance, caused by an undiagnosed eating disorder, bulimia nervosa.
Is he going to give the $2 million back?
