Newsday reported on February 25th that the strange case of socialite Brooke Astor who passed away last year at the age of 105 has gotten even stranger. It seems that Romanian Prince Paul has tried on at least two occasions to get Ms. Astor’s former maid Lia Opris to meet with attorneys for Francis X Morrissey, the attorney who is facing felony charges for allegedly taking part in a scheme to forge Ms. Astor’s signature to revisions to her Will. Ms. Opris was reportedly a witness to the signing of the will revisions. So far, she has refused to meet with Thomas Puccio, the lawyer defending Morrissey. The one thing certain about this bizarre case is that we have yet to see the last weird twist and turn.
