Bobbi Kristina Brown's Aunt Denies Their Side Of The Family Shopped Her Deathbed Photos To Media Outlets For Money


Bobbi Kristina Brown

Recently, the website TMZ broke the story that 22-year-old Bobbi Kristina Brown, the daughter of the late legendary singer, Whitney Houston, was photographed on her deathbed by a member of the Brown family and the photo was being shopped to media outlets with a request for money. Thus far, everyone has passed on publishing the morbid photo.

Bobbi Kristina's dad, R&B crooner, Bobby Brown, has banned his side of the family from visiting the dying young woman in hospice, in a bid to prevent any more photographs being taken and shopped to the press for money. Bobbi Kristina's aunt, Leolah Brown, who visited her in the hospital and separately hospice, has denied that anyone in her family took the photograph and tried to sell it.

Leolah Brown stated to TMZ, "If it were up to me! The sick and sorry people that continue to have permission to see her even still to this day-they would be completely cut out NEVER to lay eyes on her again!" She is referring to Bobbi Kristina's aunt, Pat Houston, who married the singer's brother, Gary Houston. Pat Houston is also a court approved guardian to Bobbi Kristina. However, TMZ is sticking to their story stating, "Hospital security had visual evidence incriminating a Brown family member."

Previously, a family member sold a photograph to a tabloid of Whitney Houston in her casket, which was taken at a private viewing of the body. Many are of the belief a Brown family member took that photo as well and sold it for a lot of money. Privacy is very important and should be respected.

Whitney Houston's Daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown Moved To Hospice As Her Condition Continues To Deteriorate And Conservator Files Lawsuit Against Nick Gordon For Stealing Money And Beating Her Up Confirming Previous Site Claims




Bobby Kristina Brown

Pat Houston, the aunt of 22-year-old Bobbi Kristina Brown, via marriage to the late Whitney Houston's Brother, Gary Houston, has gone on record discussing the deterioration of health her niece is experiencing, after being found face down and unresponsive in her bath tub, confirming previous site claims (Whitney Houston’s Daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown Moved To Emory Hospital After North Fulton Hospital Delivers Grim Prognosis Due To Overdose In Bathtub). 

Pat Houston issued a statement to the press revealing, "Despite the great medical care at numerous facilities, Bobbi Kristina Brown's condition has continued to deteriorate. As of today, she has been moved into hospice care. We thank everyone for their support and prayers. She is in God's hands now." Hospice is generally where individuals are sent when their prognosis is grim and they are about to pass away.

On May 9, 2015 the Judiciary Report stated Bobbi Kristina is in a persistent vegetative state (Bobby Brown And Former Sister-In-Law Pat Houston Awarded Joint Guardianship Over Whitney Houston's Daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown Who Remains In A Vegetative State). Over a month later on June 19, 2015, another of Bobbi Kristina's aunts, Leolah Brown, went on record stating her niece is not in a vegetative state, in a story carried by Fox News, which piggy backed the preexisting, aforementioned Judiciary Report article from May 9, 2015. However, it is clear from her being sent to hospice that she fell into a persistent vegetative state when the sedation was lifted, which after a few months, has become a permanent vegetative state.

Bobbi Kristina's father, R&B singer, Bobby Brown stated yesterday, "Right now we are focused on Bobbi Kristina's medical prognosis and the criminal investigation. These are the priorities for us. Whoever had a hand in causing my daughter's injuries needs to be brought to justice."

The Judiciary Report was the first to state Bobbi Kristina's boyfriend, Nick Gordon, had been physically abusing her (Bobbi Kristina Brown On Life Support Due To Overdose Confirming Previous Site Statements From 2012 and Atlanta Police Confirm Criminal Investigation Into The Overdose And Drowning Of Whitney Houston's Daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown). Days after the site published the claim, police in Atlanta announced a criminal investigation into Nick Gordon, due to unexplained bruises and injuries on her comatose body.

Gordon, whom the Judiciary Report consistently called an opportunist for years, retained a lawyer, who suspiciously filed for a restraining order to bar Atlanta police from obtaining the surveillance footage from the Ellard gated community the couple lived, in a property that belonged to the late Whitney Houston.

Yesterday, attorney Bedelia Hargrove, who is the court appointed conservator over Bobbi Kristina Brown, filed a very telling lawsuit against Nick Gordon, confirming much of what the Judiciary Report has previously insisted about him online being an abuser and opportunist. Hargrove's lawsuit against Gordon states he knocked out two of Bobbi Kristina's teeth and dragged her by her hair up a flight of stairs. The poor girl suffered, which is heartbreaking. 

What is also quite unsettling is the fact both Whitney Houston and Bobbi Kristina Brown died under strange circumstances, with their bodies face down in bath tubs, 3-years-apart, which is not the norm for drowning victims in that environment. When Houston died in this manner, 3-years ago the Judiciary Report mentioned on the site that it is unusual for a drowned body (of a grown person) to turn itself over in a bathtub and face down, especially a fairly narrow one.

I asked in the column if Houston had fallen into the tub face first. Days later even the coroner could not answer that question. Fast-forward 3-years and it happened to Houston's daughter as well (found face down). Sounds like foul play. What is also odd is Nick Gordon was present when both women drowned 3-years apart (Beverly Hills Coroner States Nick Gordon Is Lying About Giving Whitney Houston CPR). I don't like that at all. It gives me a very bad feeling. To make matters worse, Gordon's interview on "The Dr. Phil Show" revealed he is a psychotic prone to terrible mood swings and rage, even punching a crew member of the program.    

Gordon's behavior after Bobbi Kristina's drowning created more problems, as he did not give accurate information regarding how long she was underwater. There are medical standards and precedents doctors use in determining the treatment and prognosis of a patient. Gordon did the doctors a great disservice, as they had no real idea of the submersion time.

Having to guess by the amount of water in the lungs and body temperature proves inaccurate on a person who is not deceased. Doctors had to remove water from her lungs, raise her body temperature and maintain her heart rate and other vitals, after paramedics restarted the organ that had gone into cardiac arrest. Doctors only discovered the true extent of the damage days after Bobbi Kristina was admitted to the hospital and they tried to bring her out of the medically induced coma.

Bobbi Kristina was given medicine to stabilize her and give the brain time to rest with the hope it would repair itself. However, clearly she was underwater for far too long, as significant and permanent brain damage occurred, hence her inability to regain normal brain functions. The current international precedent states there are no known cases of anyone being submerged underwater longer than 10 minutes (without breathing apparatus) who made a full recovery.

Side Bar: I know I harp on it all the time, but please stay away from drugs and toxic people. Look at poor Bobbi Kristina - a lovely, vital young woman with so much going for her, whose life has been destroyed. Take control of your life, get sober and don't let people destroy you. Make positive, progressive changes as soon as possible. And remember, there's nothing wrong with seeking help from professionals to get you on your way to a better life.

Source says Bobbi Kristina Brown 'a vegetable'; family members dispute claim 

June 19, 2015FoxNews.com - LOS ANGELES – The condition of Bobbi Kristina Brown is shrouded in conflict and confusion, with some family members hopeful, while others insist she will never improve. An insider close to the family told FOX411 that the 22-year-old, who was found unconscious floating face down in a bath tub, is in a vegetative state.

“Bobby Brown should have let her go when the family all agreed back in February, the source said. "She’s a vegetable.” But Bobby Brown’s sister Leolah Brown took to Facebook on Tuesday to dispute that, stating that she is "not on life support," and that the family is continuing to pray for a recovery.

“BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN IS ‘NOT’ ON LIFE SUPPORT ANYMORE AND SHE HAS SINCE THE BEGINNING AND IS CONTINUING TODAY TO IMPROVE,” the post read. “AND WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON HER! HELL NO! NOT ONE BROWN!”...


Lawsuit: Nick Gordon assaulted Bobbi Kristina, stole thousands 

11Alive Staff, WXIA 7:28 p.m. EDT June 24, 2015 - FULTON COUNTY, Ga. -- A lawsuit filed by Bobbi Kristina Brown's conservator accuses Nick Gordon of abuse and claims he took money from her without authorization. The suit, filed in Fulton County Superior Court on Wednesday by Brown's court-appointed conservator Bedelia Hargrove, accuses Gordon of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and transferring money from her account into his own without authorization.

Bobbi Kristina Brown, 22, has been unconscious after being found unresponsive in a bathtub in her Roswell home on Jan. 31. Earlier Wednesday, her aunt said that her condition has deteriorated and she's been moved to hospice care.

The lawsuit alleges that Gordon presented himself to be Brown's surrogate brother prior to 2012. After Brown inherited a substantial sum of money (presumably from her mother, Whitney Houston's estate), Gordon "assumed the position of Brown's boyfriend." Around Jan. 9, 2014, Gordon "perpetuated the fraud that he had married Brown, though in fact he never did so," according to the lawsuit.

According to the lawsuit, Gordon used that "misrepresentation" as Brown's husband to "control Brown and limit with whom she could interact." The suit alleges that Gordon answered Brown's cell phone, wouldn't allow her to make appointments without his permission and "manipulated her bank relationship so that she could access her money."...

Gordon allegedly transferred Brown's money into an account solely controlled by him without her authorization. According to the lawsuit, Gordon began to question Brown's access to trust funds, and "threatened one of the trustees with guns and other violent weapons. That trustee obtained a restraining order against Gordon on April 14, 2014, the lawsuit states.

The lawsuit accuses Gordon of domestic violence against Brown, including punching her in the face, knocking out a front tooth and dragging her upstairs by her hair. Brown allegedly confided to an unnamed person that Gordon "was not the man she thought he was" and set up a time to meet on Jan. 31, 2015.

That day, Brown got into an argument with Gordon. Brown was later found unconscious, face-down in a bathtub with her mouth swollen and another tooth knocked out, according to the lawsuit. Brown has since been diagnosed with "global and irreversible brain damage." While Brown was in a coma, Gordon allegedly stole $11,000 from Brown's bank accounts.

The lawsuit alleges Brown has suffered "life threatening bodily harm and damages," and asks for damages of at least $10 million each for the assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and conversion. It asks for an amount to be determined later for counts of quantum meruit/unjust enrichment and attorneys' fees.

Hargrove said in a statement: Today I filed a lawsuit on behalf of Bobbi Kristina Brown. I filed this lawsuit to pursue justice on behalf of Bobbi Kristina Brown. No human being, male or female, should endure what Bobbi Kristina endured. Pat Houston and Bobby Brown have done all they can to take care of Bobbi Kristina since this terrible tragedy occurred. I have worked closely with both of them and we all want the very best for Bobbi Kristina. This lawsuit represents our collective efforts to get justice for Bobbi Kristina. We pray that justice will be done for her and that it will be swift.

Grandmother Cissy Houston stated Bobbi Kristina is "not progressing at all" at rehabilitation facility due to level brain damage

Bobbi Kristina Brown, the 22-year-old daughter of the late singer, Whitney Houston and R&B crooner, Bobby Brown, remains in a persistent vegetative state. She is for all intents and purposes what is known as a medical vegetable. It has been very tough for the Brown and Houston families to deal with what has transpired, as it would be for anyone under those devastating circumstances.

Bobby Brown's sister, Leolah Brown, went on record this week stating that Pat Houston, who is the executor of Whitney Houston's will and married to the singer's brother, Gary Houston, wants to bring Bobbi Kristina home from a rehabilitation facility to die, via withdrawing all life support.

Leolah Brown stated on social networking, "If Pat knew The God that I know, instead of trying to inherit my niece's money for her personal gain, she would mind her own business and go find a JOB for herself without continuously working so hard to destroy my niece, beg her for money and get angry when she cannot get it! She would stop using the Houston name for her personal agenda."

This is not the time to turn on each other. Something serious and tragic has happened. Focus on caring for Bobbi Kristina and one another. Do charity work to benefit others in similar situations as Bobbi Kristina, who was in an emotionally and physically abusive relationship plagued by drugs. Make the most of your lives while you can, as you are not promised tomorrow.

The Late Whitney Houston's Mother Cissy Houston Tells Oprah Winfrey She Would Not Have Wanted Her Daughter To Be Gay


Legendary gospel singer, Cissy Houston, did an interview with talk show host, Oprah Winfrey and gave candid answers surrounding her late daughter, Whitney Houston, who died of a drug overdose and heart attack a year ago. Her mother stated she found out about Whitney's drug use in the late 1980s and was very angry when she discovered it. Sadly, drug use is commonplace in the entertainment and modeling industries, shaving years off many people's lives.

When Winfrey asked Houston's mother if would have wanted her daughter Whitney to be gay, due to rumors and her close relationship with assistant Robyn Crawford, she flat out stated "no." My friend that worked at EMI Records used to state Whitney and Robyn did indeed have a gay relationship, but she left it behind for Bobby Brown, whom she fell in love with.




  "I don't dislike him, but I didn't particularly like the way he treated my daughter but people can only treat you the way you let them" - Cissy Houston regarding Bobby Brown

Some people don't get it, Houston really fell in love with Brown, who wasn't always in trouble or disheveled in appearance. At the beginning of his career with New Edition and for a few years into his solo career, Brown was considered a heartthrob, who dominated the charts and was not in trouble with the law. He was the top male R&B artist of the late 1990s, with a string of big urban hits. Many women liked him. But as with all drug problems, it grew out of control and brought him to rock bottom.

Whitney's mother did not like troublesome Brown for her daughter, but she didn't want gay Robyn for her either. Cissy Houston's response in the interview regarding the gay question as it relates to Whitney surprised Winfrey. However, Cissy Houston is a Christian and the Bible refers to the gay lifestyle as sin.

Hollywood needs to leave people's religion alone and stop trying to change it through movies, television and music. Being gay is your choice and you have that right. However, you do not have the right to force it on others and dictate what their religions should be, as Christianity and Islam forbid homosexuality.

British MP, David Davies, stated during an interview that most do not want their children to be gay and faced criticism from the gay community for stating so. However, what he stated is true, because as tolerant as some straight people are towards homosexuality, no heterosexual truly wants their child to be gay. It is not out of hatred, but it's just not something people want. He was telling the truth.

There are parents who have been devastated and broken down in loud sobs upon finding out their child is gay. It came as a disappointment to many parents, who have been heartbroken over it for years. It's just not what straight parents want for their kids and there's nothing wrong with them wanting their offspring to be heterosexual.
