Sadly, this is just a gross-out factor used to bash Alcor. I doubt the
woman really cares about all these nit-picky details. She just want the
guy dead and cremated. I would assume that if they overturn the request
that the family then gets the money. This may be a simple court battle
of a relative trying to overturn the will to get some of the estate.
That is why my insurance arrangements donate all money to Alcor even in
the even that I am not frozen. There is no incentive for anybody to
interfere with the process. The lure of $120K for the relatives who
dispute the funeral arrangements can certainly be tempting for some
people.
