[from USA Today]: DETROIT — The infamous white van that once belonged to assisted suicide advocate Jack Kevorkian has been sold to the host of a TV show on paranormal investigations.
Zak Bagans, star of Ghost Adventures on the Travel Channel, paid $32,500 this week for the rusty 1968 Volkswagen van, which has been parked in storage at the American Jewelry and Loan pawn shop on 8 Mile in Detroit, said Seth Gold, the shop’s vice president.
Kevorkian, who died in 2011, lived out of the van for periods of his life and used it to carry out some of his estimated 130 assisted suicides. Janet Adkins, his first public assisted suicide patient, died in the van in rural Oakland County in June 1990. She was 54 and had been diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s disease.
