Last night, I read a story (within a story) in which a man claimed to be the half-brother of a frum man who had lost his father, saying the father had had a previous marriage in which he had fathered the man. He sought half the inheritance. The man's material evidence was slight, but a judge ruled that an exhumation of the deceased for a DNA test was necessary. Rather than allow this desecration, the man gave up half of his considerable inheritance.
I find this story absolutely unbelievable. Donald J. Sobol lightning round time!
What's wrong with this picture, Dr. Haledjian?
(Fun fact: The first Encyclopedia Brown book was published in 1963
and the last, the 29th, in 2012, 3 months after the author's death.)
