The children of Casey Kasem are urging Los Angeles police to make progress in an elder abuse investigation focusing on the radio legend's widow.

Kasem's children claimed at a Friday news conference that the investigation into Jean Kasem's care that began last June has stalled.

But police spokeswoman Jane Kim says detectives are still actively investigating, though she wouldn't provide details.

The district attorney's office says no case has been presented to prosecutors.

1. Based on what I heard from the daughter and the condition of the poor man when custody

was transferred to her by the court, I agree with her.

3. i just looked at pictures of kasem's wife out of curiousity. it appears they were married a long

time.

funny thing though: the wife seems to have kept getting bigger and bigger while kasey got smaller and smaller. like she was eating him.



in happier days, circa 1981




circa 2013
