      The facts aren’t inherently ghoulish. The media attention to every macabre detail and society’s hunger for such trivialities is.

      Nothing in this story or series of details helps to further the case of negligence. It serves only to feed the rage and satiate morbid curiosity.

        Well said. Speaking ill of the dead says more about the speaker than the departed. It’s disgusting, and it’s extremely disappointing how many find it acceptable to say terrible things about someone just because they were rich.

        Death is the equalizer. No matter who are in life, we all die the same. Those rich people didn’t get to take their money with them, they’re just dead. It’s like gloating to someone you just beat in a race. It’s over, and they lost. Show some goddamn respect.
