News is out today that authorities ruled Gary Coleman’s death “accidental” due to his fall–that after falling, he died of natural causes.

Is that interesting?

I wonder if any seriousness was given to the fact the fall may not have been accidental? That work would involve investigations outside of the coroner’s office.

Sometimes cases like this fall through the cracks for a whole host of reasons. It reminds me of the Kari Baker story. Her death was classified as a suicide at first and it took her family a lot of hard work and effort to get that changed and for her husband, Matt Baker, to be held accountable.

I had a poll on what people thought of Shannon Price on June 11, and 98.23% of people didn’t believe Shannon, while the remaining people were undecided. No one said they trusted her.

Shannon Price truly causes me concern. I worry about the next person or people who come in contact with her. I suspect the probability is high we will see her in the news again one day and it won’t be good news.

Now, how do we classify this case when 98% of those polled didn’t believe her, no one trusted her and yet the case was ruled “accidental” by authorities? I’m totally perplexed! I think we all are suspicious for good reason…

Gary Coleman’s Parents: Honest or Not?

Gary Coleman’s Parents, Sue and Willie Coleman on the Today Show

Are the Coleman’s being honest about not taking money from their son?

Read moreThis is an interesting interview to watch because there is a clear history between Gary Coleman and his parents that was fought out in a court case. In 1989, Gary Coleman sued his parents and former business manager for stealing his trust fund. At the time of the lawsuit, Gary’s parents fought back with a counter suit for defamation and for breach of contract. They never gave up that lawsuit, they fought it to the end, and Gary won.

It’s fascinating to sit here and watch them play all innocent. They should stand up and say that they believed they were owed that money, if that is what they felt, but they aren’t. Why? Instead they play ignorant as to why they are estranged. They obviously had a serious disagreement about much money they were due, if not other disputes. I’m not buying they believe they are estranged because Gary got outside influence. He got a “different” input and maybe that woke him up!

I suspect these two have convinced themselves that they didn’t “steal” anything from their son. People who do things that are questionable often have selective memories or go into denial, because, after all, who wants to remember “their ugly”?

I believe Gary had valid reasons for cutting off his parents for 20 years. He felt so strongly he left them out of his will entirely and specifically. That’s a very strong statement that I think Gary felt he had to make, out of fear they might have contested his last wishes.

Todd Bridges, co-star of Diff’rent Strokes, who starred along with Gary Coleman, told Radar Online this week that Gary Coleman, like all actors, has a pension worth a lot of money. “He may have died with no money, but his pension is huge.”

Shannon Price: Claims Common Law Wife Status

Young Couple Holding Hands at Street Cafe

The Associated Press has an interesting news article out today about Shannon Price and her efforts to claim Gary’s estate. In it, they report she filed a petition with the courts to be appointed as the special administrator for Gary’s estate and funeral services. She also is claiming the status of being Gary’s common law wife.

I believe Shannon Price will use every tool, trick or stick in the book to get what her little heart desires. She has supposedly produced a hand written note from Gary that was allegedly written one month after they wed in 2007 where he states that he leaves everything to his wife.

Pencil and Paper

The AP reports that the note says this:

I made this change of free will and was not coerced in any way. This I have done because of my personal selfishness and my weakness and I love her with all my heart.

I didn’t know this, but Gary and Shannon met in 2005 on the set of a movie.

Look at these poll results from last week. I’ve never seen a poll so stacked to one side before.

Very Disturbing Photo of Shannon

Utah Valley Regional Medical Center

Celebitchy shared the news with me that Shannon Price, the ex-wife of the late Gary Coleman, is on the cover of the Globe this morning, and I must say the photo is very disturbing. She is leaning over Gary on life support in his hospital bed at the Utah Valley Regional Medical Center.

Read moreIf you are sensitive, I caution you not to look at it. The only reason I am discussing it is because human behavior, in and of itself, is fascinating. I would never believe someone would do this, though I know people can be sick and evil. Logically, I know people will do this. Emotionally, I can’t get my brain around it. It’s just hard to grasp people can be this sick. There should be laws against taking this on a variety of levels, if you ask me from taking photos of unconscious people to publishing them (not that I want laws, but this shouldn’t be allowed).

Clearly, something is very wrong with Shannon Price. Everyone sees it. The woman hasn’t acted appropriately one time in the entire ordeal of Gary dying. I have no doubt about it, this is what she wanted and she experienced positive emotions at times, evident by her smiling as she talked about what it was like to take him off of life support.

Shannon Price is starting to remind me of Diane Downs, who is one in a gazillion, thankfully–the sickest of the sick. As sick as this photo is, I hope it is a catalyst to bring about some action and stop her from causing more nightmares!
