Misdirecting with media noise so people look away from the main issue.
Programming the case so the big issues are confronted.
If you were a Judge wouldn’t you need to know and understand if the child fighting for control to end a man’s life, is actually in a condition of ill will towards that person?
The record shows that as soon as his daughter got control of his health, her first step was to get permission to pull her father off of life support as soon as possible.
The public statement from his widow, when legally she protested of loosing the power of Mr. Kasem’s health care:
“In addition to her conversion to Scientology, Kerri and Casey also had a falling-out over Kerri’s involvement in soft-core pornography,”
And,
” Her true motive is to get back at her father, and to be appointed to a position of influence over him where she can alter his estate plan and have his money go to her and her church of Scientology.”
Kerri Kasem denied the allegations and stated, “I wish Jean would just focus on what’s important and visit her husband, who does not have much time left.”
Hold everything! Don’t you think if that child has been on the outs with her father it IS VERY IMPORTANT if you are going to seek permission to pull the plug on his life? WHY would Kerri Kasem imply this is a non importance?
O.K., so Kerri denied all of this.
Did anyone bother to check if what his widow was saying was true?
And if it was, does the widow now have the right to sue the child for perjury in court, and the judge for negligence?
Yes, she does,
Was it true? Did the widow lie?
Here is what I have found and you figure this out for yourself.
The first response was to deny through her “Rep”
Note, What is a “rep”?
informal
noun
-
a representative.
“a union rep”
verb
-
act as a sales representative for a company or product.
“at eighteen she was working for her dad, repping on the road”
Kasem “won’t be with us much longer,” said Danny Deraney, the rep for the “American Top 40” host’s daughter, Kerri Kasem.
“Deraney denies that Kerri Kasem has ever been a Scientologist,” adding, “She loves studying religions. Jean picked out the most controversial one to distract from what’s really going on.”
How is that for double talk? Get it?
Let me take you through that again.
Deraney denies that Kerri Kasem has ever been a Scientologist.
Then,
“Jean picked out the most controversial one to distract from what’s really going on.”
You deny, then admit, then accuse the widow of trying to “distract from what’s really going on”.
Seriously, it gets this comical!
About the Scientology, one investigative reporter provided this evidence:
About the pornography and nude photos. which Mr. Kasem’s widow mentions, Mr. Kasem had a falling out with his daughter about. These are available on the net.
Let’s first understand some definitions.
dictionary.search.yahoo.com
n. noun
-
Sexually explicit writing, images, video, or other material whose primary purpose is to cause sexual arousal.

Lurid or sensational material. Often used in combination.
dictionary.reference.com/browse/nude
naked or unclothed, as a person or the body. 2. without the usual coverings, furnishings, etc.; bare: a nude stretch of land laid waste by brush fires.
O.K., so I think that is clear enough.
Did she withhold vital information from a judge, if she was on the outs with her father before he became too disabled to speak on his own behalf?
I found one item that I would want to explore:
It turns out these two siblings were allowed to see their father! There was some kind of confidentiality agreement between them and his widow!
“Julie and her brother Mike Kasem reached a confidential agreement with their stepmother in December that allowed them to visit their father, although Kerri Kasem refused.”

Moving on….
Let’s review the press release to the public, from Mr. Kasem’s daughter, about why Mr. Kasem’s daughter pulled him off of life support?
The press release: In accordance with Kerri Kasem’s wishes, doctors will no longer provide infusions of water, food and medicine.
This is Kerri Kasem’s statement:
“The court’s decision today …… ( HOLD EVERYTHING! THE COURT’S DECISION? Yes, this is how it goes with the spin!!!! WHO’S DECISION was it to take him off of life support? It was his conservator’s decision. His daughter’s decision. She obtains legal APPROVAL from the court. …….) ….upheld our father’s explicit wishes as expressed by him in his health directive,” Kerri said in a statement after the hearing. Kasem’s daughter was referring to a directive the radio and television icon signed in 2007 saying he wouldn’t want to be kept alive if it “would result in a mere biological existence, devoid of cognitive function, with no reasonable hope for normal functioning.”
She is backed up by her attorney: (If he wants to get paid)
“To continue forcing artificial nutrition and hydration would “at best prolong the dying process for him and will certainly add suffering to an already terribly uncomfortable dying process,” Kerri’s lawyer, Troy Martin, said.”
“I think Kerri has conducted herself in a way that demonstrates she’s solely concerned about the health of her father,” attorney Troy Martin said.
Who is attorney is Troy Martin? Kerri’s attorney.
I am curious how much of that 500,000.00 Kerri demanded from her father’s estate for conservatorship expenses is going to attorney Troy Martin? (See other recent post on that)
Maybe he’s working pro bono and isn’t charging anything for media releases or legal representation.
Judge Allows Casey Kasem’s Daughter to End Life Support of the Ailing Star
Kasem died of starvation and dehydration. That is what happens when you cut off fluids and nutrients.
There are people that disagree about the humanity in this, and attest that this is a terrible and torturous manner in which to die. With regards to withholding the fluids. Several days with out fluids and how are you doing and feeling? Maybe your tongue is stuck to the roof of your mouth? Your lips are swollen? A dying man can’t get a glass of water? Seriously?
Withholding food and nutrients, fine. But fluids? For days? There is vast research available about the torturous effects of dehydrating to death. Also known as death by dehydration.
HOWEVER, The main point is this. Was a woman on the outs with her father granted conservatorship over his health, which she shifted to mean and be, conservatorship over his life?
After the report surfaced with the evidence of her involvement in Scientology, which she at first denied, she issued a new statement:
“I’ve studied many religions and Jean will of course find the most controversial one and use it against me,” she said.
Wait! The widow never said she had an issue with Scientology did she? She said Kerri and her father had a falling out about it.
Can you see the spin?
Jean Kasem’s attorney in this particular matter was unfocused , did not make the media attention about the ethics of this matter, and the big picture, and lost in court.
When she got angry at him afterwards, for setting her up for a loss, he then spoke to the media about her in a derogatory way, which added to her burden.
He discredited himself in this way and this is a career killer for an attorney.
