There are allegations that he poisoned her and that he asked why she hadn't
died yet. Her parents have offered to pay for her burial in a family plot, but
he insists that she be cremated and being intered at his family plot in
Pennsylvania.

He's even engaged to another woman (married to her in all but name) and
fathered a couple kids with her. He's a cad.

You aren't the only one. What sickens me most is how there are people who
insist that she die. They go so far as to call her parents and supporters names
for wanting her to live.

Yes, he overstepped his authority when he ordered that her feeding tube be
removed.
