In a statement shared by People Magazine, here’s what Shannon shared:

[Shannon Amos] noted in a statement provided to Parade on July 19, “My family and I continue to advocate and fight for the proper care of my father,” referencing the elder abuse claims she made back in June.

As for her brother—who, according to a complaint obtained by People, was arrested over the weekend after allegedly sending Shannon seemingly threatening messages—Shannon said she’s “pleased that Kelly is being held accountable for his actions which have put my father’s health at risk, and look forward to resolving this matter in private with the proper authorities.”

Shannon Claims K.C. Amos Made Her ‘Fear For Her Life’

Prior to Shannon’s July 19, 2023 statement, legal docs surrounding their case revealed what she told West Orange, NJ police at the time of calling in K.C. Amos’s alleged threats to her:

Via TMZ- Shannon told West Orange, NJ police her brother texted about his supposed gang affiliations, showing a handgun and a rifle. She claims he also sent her videos of him firing a handgun in an open field, and wrote, “Gonna sleep much better tonight big sis.”

According to Robert Florida, a spokesperson for the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office … Shannon said K.C. suffers from bipolar disorder, which has led him to believe she hired someone to kill him — and now she’s worried he might retaliate.

John Amos’s Daughter Clarifies GoFundMe Page She Started For Dad

In her latest statement, Shannon also addressed the controversial GoFundMe page she’d started for their pops in June of this year, to raise funding for his ‘medical care.’..which John Amos later claimed he did not need and was perplexed by. Here’s what Shannon had to say about it:

Via People- “Despite false accusations and defamatory statements being made against me, I remain committed to ensuring that he receives the best medical care. John Amos may be known as ‘America’s Dad’, but for me, he is my father.”

After Shannon created the GoFundMe page, John Amos released a video – from his hospital – bed claiming that his “main issues” were with his daughter, Shannon, and further adding, “who I feel has taken advantage of me and she would be the primary suspect if you would. … She’s the one that I would attribute my elderly abuse to.”

Needless to say…after John rejected the GoFundMe donations, the page was taken down.

So uh…yeah…this story has many odd twists and turns, where the math just ain’t ‘mathing’ at times 🤷🏾‍♂️. But nevertheless, only time will tell what the actual truth is, as more details emerge about this heartbreaking Amos family dynamic. Wishing them all the best going forward.
