Casey Kasem's body is missing...

http://www.cnn.com/2014/07/18/showbiz/casey-kasem-burial-delay/



(CNN) -- The family battle that surrounded radio host Casey Kasem during his final days continues to rage on after his death.

Although the 82-year-old passed away on June 15, his body has yet to be buried. Now, according to Danny Deraney, the publicist for Kasem's daughter Kerri Kasem, the family doesn't know where his body is.

"We are not surprised," Kerri Kasem told to CNN. "We expected something like this to happen."

Discord between Kasem's wife of more than 30 years, Jean Kasem, and his adult children from his first marriage led to multiple legal clashes and court hearings in the months before to Kasem died.

Parsons' body disappeared from the Los Angeles International Airport where it was being readied to be shipped to Louisiana for burial.
Before his death, Parsons stated that he wanted his body cremated at Joshua Tree and his ashes spread over Cap Rock, a prominent natural feature there; however, Parsons' stepfather organized a private ceremony back in New Orleans and neglected to invite any of his friends from the music industry.[37] Two accounts state that Bob Parsons stood to inherit Gram's share of his grandfather's estate if he could prove that Gram was a resident of Louisiana, explaining his eagerness to have him buried there
