Doctor defies court order in Karen Quinlan case
Morristown New Jersey Dr Robert Morse testified that despite Karen Quinlans chronic vegetative state and six months on a respirator he would not pull the plug even if a court orders removal. He described her as responsive to pain light and sound and said medical precedent does not support removing life support. The Quinlans seek to let their daughter die with dignity, while Morse and doctors contend she cannot recover and the respirator remains her life-sustaining measure.
