I have studied the Nancy Cruzan case in great detail for years and I am sure that Joe, her father, was being led down the path with both ideology and big bucks. It was a huge win for their side and then Joe commits suicide a few years later.

This was not a father who made this decision on his own or had the resources to track down former coworkers to testify from 8-10 years ago. And he certainly did not have the money to do all that court time.

Some others who reek of payoffs to me are Michelle Finn and Mary Martin. Big hospital bills and children to finish raising and sending to college. Enter the right to die and suddenly you're seeing two homes, and cash aplenty.
Michelle Finn goes on to become an advocate for money for those with brain injuries. She virtually creates a job for herself in this profession. And a group for her to run. Guilt?
