Family Dispute Erupts Over John Amos' Delayed Death Announcement

The late actor's family is embroiled in controversy over the circumstances and communication surrounding his passing.

John Amos' family has expressed anger over learning of his death 45 days after it occurred, citing a lack of communication from his son, K. C. Amos.
Amos' daughter, Shannon, and other family members allege that K. C. isolated the actor from his loved ones and controlled access to him in his final days.
K. C., who was under a no-contact order with Shannon, claims the delay in announcing John's death was at the actor's own request to avoid family conflict.
The family has raised suspicions around the circumstances of Amos' cremation and the absence of an autopsy, questioning K. C.'s motives.
An elder abuse investigation involving John Amos was previously closed due to lack of evidence, despite ongoing family allegations against K. C.
