  • Casey Kasem's Family Wants His Widow Jean To Be Charged with Elder Abuse

    Casey Kasem, an iconic voice of radio and television may have died last June but the feud between his children and his widow, Jean Kasem, is alive and well. Late last year his daughter, Kerri Kasem, went to the LAPD alleging that their father had been a victim of elder abuse and that Jean had refused to embalm her husband to prevent proof of abuse from being revealed. While the situation has been under investigation, it didn't prevent Kasem from being buried in Oslo, Norway 6 months after his death. Now Kerri is demanding that investigators file charges against Jean.

  • Casey Kasem Has Finally Been Buried in Norway Six Months After His Death

    The only thing sadder than the fact that it took six months for Casey Kasem to be buried is the fact that it happened last Tuesday, Dec. 16, in Norway and his kids had no idea about it until today. The radio icon died in June and in the months that followed his wife Jean Kasem was locked in a battle with his grown children who believed he had been a victim of elder abuse. The LAPD had been actively investigating the circumstances surrounding Kasem's death and his burial pretty much puts a swift ending to any chance of charges being filed against Jean.According to a report by TMZ, Kasem was finally laid to rest last Tuesday in Vestre Gravlund, one of Norway's biggest cemeteries. Jean had claimed that she wanted her husband buried in Norway because of his heritage, but his children have suspected all along that she was withholding his remains so no tests could be done to further pinpoint what contributed to his death. They have firmly believed that bed sores led to the fatal infection that ultimately killed Kasem, but now there is really no chance of proving that even if it was the case.
