Add to this:
"Mr. Cotten was diligent in other areas of his life. He signed a will on Nov. 27, less than two weeks before he died."
If that his first will, either he knew he was so ill this was a chance or another red flag.
This is a huge red flag. It's really easy to get fake IDs, passports, marriage certificates, death certificates, driver's licenses[1] etc in India, if you grease the right hands. and it's not even that much in USD. We are talking a couple of 100 bucks ( USD ) for a new passport with a new name and far less for other things.
[1] Source: Me. I) had to bribe a DMV officer about 200 Rs ( 4 USD back then in 1999) to get my Driver's License , so I can drive in US. I had to do this cos I was leaving in 3 days and I'd landed a job the previous week ( Had my H1-B ready to go).
I didn't even go to the DMV. He delivered the "International Drivers Permit" drivers license right to my door in 2 days.
