You don't remember correctly. Cryonics has never been responsible for the death of anyone. The reason why it is such a controversial subject is because it violates traditional ritualistic behavior - such as burials, which is one of the coping mechanisms society has to deal with the occurrence of death.
At the very least, individuals who support cryonics should be left alone by the state to practice their "beliefs". There is really no legitimate reason to object to cryonics -- the practice of freezing (already dead) bodies or heads in suspended animation. You can find it weird or gross, but that doesn't give you the right to interfere in other people's lives.
