In Florida there is NO common law marriage. SO at worst Michael is an adulterer. Michael is a slick one. By retaining legal guardianship he can sweep all under the rug after he has her cremated.
Laws need to be in place to make sure when there is doubt and a conflict of interest something like this can not be carried out. There are NO laws in place, NOW to prevent what Michael is doing.
This case will be studied in law school for years to come to see what went wrong and what was right about it.
