Not even remotely close to true.
No, 100%, incontrovertibly true. That is my experience, and I said it was merely my experience.

I think slander of title would be worth having an attorney investigate...
Your experience might be true, but it's irrelevant since it doesn't reflect any kind of reality. If that's your experience, then you haven't had a lot of experience with autopsies. There are a bunch of reasons that autopsies are performed that have nothing to do with foul play or suspicion of foul play.
Only reason I responded is because I've dealt with this issue a lot of times in wrongful death cases. In fact, it comes up in cases where you have to do either a direct or cross-examination of an expert medical examiner. In my most recent wrongful death case, I even hired Dr. Michael Baden (from HBO's "Autopsy" show) to be my expert and learned a ton about the topic. In many places, autopsies are performed when the cause of death is not immediately evident because officials are worried that there might be an issue that is a threat to the public health. If somebody just keels over and dies, they might have died from something that can spread through the population.
Even if the suicide were true, why would they tell potential buyers? Even old lonely women draw the line when it comes to potential financial damage like this.
someone has a suspicion it wasn't natural causes, correct?
That was my first thought, but I think that involves an actual legal cloud/encumbrance on the actual title. Like filing a malicious lien on a property, so that your neighbor can't sell it to anyone else but you.
You may be right. I'm not sure of the state standard where the OP resides...but basic hornbook law says:
Even under that standard, the slander is to the quality of the title, and not the quality of the underlying property. But maybe it varies by state, or this could be an area for expansion. Or that there is another cause of action.
So after chewing out my real estate agent for allowing this BS accusation to end up on an offer in my e-mail, he told me to call my lawyer, which I reluctantly (it's sunday after all) did.

He is contacting the bank tomorrow, if they are unwilling to waive their right to claim a deficiency then he said that we could pursue legal action against them.
