Claim B.B. King Murdered Ploy By Children To Take More Under Will Says Lawyer
The lawyer for the late B.B. King recently stated that the claims of Mr. King being murdered by poison are likely ploys to take more from the singers estate. While there was a power of attorney transfer shortly before the death of Mr. King, it was not with the intent to deprive the children of the inheritance that was originally provided for them. Most of the money in the estate has been set aside in a trust that will provide for the education expenses of the beneficiaries but nothing more.
