Casey Kasem Has Been Found.
Fox News is reporting that Casey Kasem's family confirmed early Thursday that the longtime "American Top 40" host had been located in Washington state, three days after a California judge ordered an investigation into the 82-year-old's whereabouts. Family spokesman Danny Deraney said, "The family has grave concerns about his medical care. The Kasem family will do everything in their power to bring their father home." CNN reports Kitsap County sheriff's deputies performed a welfare check Tuesday at an address provided by California Adult Protective Services, according to CNN affiliate KOMO. Authorities found Casey and his wife visiting others at a home. The couple told deputies they were on vacation. After determining Casey was not in distress and was receiving appropriate care, the deputies left.
Fox News is reporting that Kerri Kasem spoke to the publication Closer Weekly and said she and her sister Julie saw their father on on May 6 with the help of an attorney. "They let me and my sister in to see him and it was a wonderful visit. My dad said, ?I love you.? Dad was animated. He was smiling. He moved his arms a little bit. He knew we were there. When we went to leave, we said, ?Dad, we?ll be back soon. We?ll be back soon.? That?s when he looked up at us and was able to say the word, ?When?? We said, ?Dad, as soon as we can.?? Kerri Kasem said after the visit, his wife Jean Kasem moved the former radio host in the middle of the night.
