Money Doesn’t Buy Happiness: The Dark Side of the Johnson and Johnson Family
The life and death of an heiress
Casey Johnson was one of the heiresses to the billion-dollar healthcare company Johnson & Johnson.
She was young, beautiful, and rich but she died alone on January 4, 2010, at the age of thirty.
Her father, Robert Woody Johnson IV, is the great-grandson of Robert Woody Johnson who co-founded Johnson & Johnson.
Casey’s father, who goes by the name Woody, owns the New York Jets football team and is currently the United States Ambassador to the United Kingdom.
His current net worth is estimated to be 3.5 billion dollars.
He was able to conquer the business world but he was not able to save his daughter Casey, who suffered from mental health issues.
A Troubled Childhood
Casey was born on September 24, 1979. She was raised in Manhattan, New York, and attended a prestigious private school for the duration of her education.
At the tender age of 8, Casey was diagnosed with juvenile diabetes.
At 9-years-old, Casey became unpredictable and disruptive at school so she began seeing a therapist.
