Hi all! This Saturday evening, the CBS news program 48 Hours will be featuring a segment that they're calling "The mysterious death of Casey Kasem." The 48 Hours segment focuses on the ongoing battle between Casey's family members over his estate, as well as the accusations they have made against each other regarding his passing. Casey Kasem, of course, was the voice of Mark in Battle of the Planets, so I figured some people here might be interested in checking the episode out. It'll air on your local CBS affiliate this Saturday night. James

I'd read that there is now a criminal investigation going on regarding how he was treated at the end of his life and how he passed. I have a feeling its going to get worse than we know.

His kids claim that, when she took him out of the extended care facility, Casey Kasem's second wife pulled out an IV and a feeding tube, which harmed him and hastened his death. The second wife claims that these allegations are just a desperate money-grab by the kids. The daughter, however, said she didn't care about the money -- the second wife could have every penny for all she cared -- just as long as "she gets jail time for causing the death of our father". The whole thing gets more and more tragic with each passing moment.
