The Las Vegas police initiated a homicide investigation surrounding the death of BB King, following accusations by two of his daughters, who say the king’s blues was murdered by his agent and his personal assistant.
“I believe my father was poisoned and that you were given external substances to induce her premature death,” said Patty King and Karen Williams in similar reported that both sent The Associated Press through its lawyer Larissa Drohobyczer. Daughters say LaVerne Toney agent and Myron Johnson assistant gave her medication to induce you a diabetic shock.
The autopsy was carried out on Sunday and the results may take up to eight weeks to arrive, but preliminary data do not point yet to poisoning.
B. B. King died on May 14 after 89 years in a home to Las Vegas where he was admitted after his health has deteriorated.
His daughters say that King was “kidnapped all members his family a week before he died “and that Toney and Johnson were the only people who were with him.
Attorney says King died peacefully in her sleep
Attorney Brent Bryson assured however that three doctors certified that the musician was receiving the proper assistance and that was kept under medical supervision until “such time as he died peacefully in his sleep.” No family was present at the time.
A week before the death of the musician, a judge in Las Vegas declined a request for Williams to stay with King in their care.
On April 29 claimed that Toney had prevented the King of friends to visit, which put members of his family in the payroll and even if large amounts of money had disappeared from the bank accounts of the musician.
“They have always been to launch accusations. What’s new? “Said Toney, who worked with King for 39 years and was responsible for its legal affairs.
King married twice. First with Martha Lee Denton, between 1946 and 1952, and then with Sue Carol Hall, from 1958 to 1966. The artist left 14 children and more than 50 grandchildren.
His legacy should be worth tens of millions of dollars
