Court fight leaves auto legend Carroll Shelby's remains in limbo
The dispute between his children and surviving wife has left his body stuck in a Dallas County morgue while a Texas court decides who gets to dispose of his remains.

Adding to the imbroglio is a cryptic comment by Dallas County Medical Examiner Dr. Jeffrey Barnard, who said he was in control of the body "because an allegation was made which falls within" Texas laws pertaining to criminal procedure.

Barnard said the investigation is ongoing and that he could not provide details.

The fight for his body is the latest chapter in what had been a colorful life, and now is turning into an equally colorful legacy for the former race car driver and sports car designer. He died at age 89 at Baylor Hospital in Dallas.

With the old TV series "Dallas" being redone as a mini-series,I have to wonder if one of the episodes will be now be "Who Killed CS ?''.
