Ending Life
http://www.cbsnews.com/videos/ending-life-2/
A daughter sitting beside her 93 y/o terminally ill father.. who consumed a “bottle” of liquid morphine to “end it all”… Hospice nurse shows up for a visit… calls for a ambulance… sent pt to hospital who is giving Naloxone and survived for another 4 days. The nurse also called the police and daughter was arrested for assisting suicide..
Could it be that family members that are near, around or aware of a family member’s suicide by drug overdose and is “persuaded” by authorities to allow the death certificate to be labeled and a “accidental overdose”… or the family members may investigated … charged… arrested for assisting a suicide.. and all the legal expenses that goes along with it… even if the charges are dismissed or they are found not guilty at some point in the future.

First, I am terribly sorry you lost your brother in that way. My best friend also ended his life that way. Secondly, I agree that life insurance most definitely is a factor in many CODs listed as accidental .
My brother committed suicide (by rifle). I think that in case of intentional overdoses, sometimes the coroner puts down accidental overdose so its not listed as suicide so there isn’t any problem with life insurance, etc.?
