Paul E Nomial Was a Much-Loved Politician Who Died Suddenly

Paul E. Nomial was a much-loved politician who died suddenly. A nationally-televised retrospective on his life says many nice things about him but also wrongly accuses him of having embezzled government funds. His family is outraged and wants to file a libel suit. Realizing they are unlikely to win a libel suit on behalf of a dead person, his wife decides to file a libel suit in her own name claiming that her reputation has been damaged because of the libel to her deceased husband. Assuming that his wife can prove that Paul was defamed, she will be able to claim she too was damaged.
