Flamenco Great Jose Greco Blamed on Amtrak Death
Attorneys for Jose Greco age 82 allege his Dec 31 death from heart failure followed complications from a September encounter with Amtrak police.

A pathologist hired by the family says heart tissue cultures show an infection attacking a heart valve, stemming from a foot injury in the scuffle.
