Subject: Bad publicity leads to more hostile relatives?

Mary Robbins's relatives might have decided to interfere with her suspension
because they had heard the previous episodes of bad publicity regarding
Alcor, including rumors of the abuse of a frozen head. If they succeed in
preventing Robbins's suspension, while also intercepting the money she had
set aside for it, that will give other members' relatives the precedent and
incentive to try to stop their suspensions. And even if Alcor wins custody
of Robbins's body, the media might frame the story in a way sympathetic to
the relatives and derogatory to Alcor, contributing to problems down the
line with other suspensions opposed by the suspendees' family members.

What should we do to keep this from happening to potentially all of us with
living relatives?
