Earlier this month, Nick Gordon denied in court that he had anything to do with his late girlfriend Bobbi Kristina’s death. But as expected, it looks like the Brown family doesn’t believe him because Bobbi’s father, Bobby Brown, recently claimed that he believes Gordon harmed his daughter.
In a statement to People magazine, Brown’s lawyer, Christopher Brown, explained that his client believes the accusations that Gordon beat his daughter and that he may have been involved in her near-drowning in January that left her comatose and ultimately lead to her death.
“In regard to the civil litigation, we believe we know who harmed Bobbi Kristina Brown and his name is Nick Gordon,” said Brown’s lawyer.
Brown’s lawyer also addressed the $40 million lawsuit that Bobbi’s estate filed against him, claiming that he stole money from her and gave her a “toxic cocktail rendering her unconscious” before he allegedly “put her face down in a tub of cold water causing her to suffer brain damage.”
“Mr. Gordon made headlines when he filed his Motion to dismiss the lawsuit pending in Superior Court that seeks to hold him responsible for 40 million dollars in damages,” continues the statement.
“However, the Motion was frivolous and instead of having it heard by the Court, he has chosen to withdraw the Motion, ending that matter so that he could avoid having to give his deposition which was scheduled for the day he withdrew the Motion. Mr. Gordon will now have to give his deposition under oath.”
Brown’s lawyer ended the statement by questioning Gordon’s character.
“I am not shocked at the withdrawal, as we must keep in mind that Gordon filed a lawsuit to remove Bobby Brown as Bobbi Kristina’s guardian, only to withdraw that lawsuit in DeKalb County Probate Court once he was served with a deposition notice. He could have pressed forward with that lawsuit and told us under oath what he believed happened to Bobbi Kristina, but he chose to go in another direction.”
It was recently revealed that the Fulton County Medical Examiner now knows the cause of Bobbi’s death and Brown’s lawyer hopes the information helps the Browns find justice.
“I look forward to having the court hear the evidence in the civil lawsuit and hopefully the criminal action very soon,” he said.
