Did Whileon Chay run a scam to fund his wife’s cryopresevation in 2009?
BTW, I’d like to know the ethnicity of the guy because I don’t recognize the provenience of that sort of name, and it may have a nonobvious pronunciation:

Now, Alcor acted in good faith by putting this woman into cryopreservation and accepting her husband’s money for it. I suspect the O Administration won’t make a big deal out of it because Chay’s case involves a relatively small amount of money as financial malfeasance goes, and it lacks a racial angle to exploit.
I suspect this describes the wife’s cryopreservation:
I doubt it. The subject of that document was 46 when she died. Chay’s wife was 52, according to news reports.

I’m not as opposed to political discussion on this site as many are, but I do think the original point of EY’s “Politics is the Mindkiller” post is worth keeping in mind. Inserting this kind of mind-killing aside in an otherwise non-political comment is needlessly inflammatory and distracting. I don’t want to see this sort of thing on LW.

Having seen many of his recent posts I believe he’s doing it on purpose.

And a whole lot of news websites have picked up on this story. Just one example:
