B. B. King Family & Friends Denied Right To Say Goodbye

Posted On : May 5, 2015

BB-King (2)More upsetting news from the family of B. B. King. It looks like the B. B. King is being isolated from his friends and family in what could be his last days. He is in hospice care at his home in Las Vegas, and while the being in hospice is enough to endure, it seems his friends and family cannot spend time with B. B. King at such a delicate time.

[su_quote cite=”TMZ Reports” url=”http://www.tmz.com/2015/05/05/bb-king-family-friends-lawsuit-manager-money-estate-health/”]B.B. King is being isolated from his family and celebrity friends, including Willie Nelson, Carlos Santana and Eric Clapton, and it’s all a sinister plot by his manager to fleece his estate … so says his daughter. Karen Williams claims in new legal docs her dad is being horribly neglected by B.B.’s manager, Laverne Toney.

She says Toney has hired a caregiver who got so drunk he fell asleep and B.B. fell and bashed his face in. Williams says Toney won’t take her dad to the dentist to treat his abscesses, because she says he’s broke. Yet Williams claims B.B. had a $5 million balance in his account just last year. But Williams says the money is being drained, and quickly. She says in April 2014, more than $453k was withdrawn from B.B.’s account.[/su_quote]

Just last week, we told you about how Toney refused to let the family take B.B. to the hospital late last week after the legend suffered a minor heart attack. This doesn’t look promising, but there is power in prayer. We also believe there is power in numbers, so media attention helps shed light on a bleak situation.
