    I don't get it.
    If the "alleged" thief is deceased.....then I'm thinking that you could substitute the word "alleged" with "attempted!"

    It's not like his (or her) estate can sue for slander......

    His Her Estate - prehaps not.
    Although some attorney might find a loophole worth a go to exploit.

    Wouldn't it be a shame if it was actually DIYer / Owner installing a new Cat after the original Cat had been stolen from his Prius when the jack failed.

    It would contradict the reports that the deceased were not the registered owners of the vehicles.
