$5 million and $10 million.

Crump and Drohobyczer spoke after a hearing about the estate was rescheduled so it can be heard by the Clark County District Court judge heading Las Vegas probate courts. The hearing was later scheduled for June 25.

Four King daughters allege that Toney used her position as power-of-attorney while he was alive to move more than $1 million out of various bank accounts; denied King proper medical care; and prevented relatives from visiting him before he died.

Toney has denied the allegations, saying she acted according to wishes that King made clear to her before he died.

King’s physician and the coroner in Las Vegas said King died of natural causes.

Crump didn’t immediately endorse assertions by Williams and Patty King that Toney poisoned B.B. King to hasten his death. The Clark County coroner conducted an autopsy May 24. Toxicology test results are expected in several weeks.

“I don’t know if that is the case,” he said. “I’m coming in with a fresh set of eyes to review all these matters.”

Crump said he also wanted to investigate whether there was another will.

Crump, of Tallahassee, Florida, represents the families of Trayvon Martin, the teenager fatally shot by a Florida neighborhood watch organizer in 2012, and Michael Brown, who was killed by a police officer last year in Ferguson, Missouri. He also represents the families of Alesia Thomas, a Los Angeles woman who died after being kicked by a female Los Angeles police officer, and Tamir Rice, a 12-year-old boy shot and killed by Cleveland police last year.

We want to make it clear that we do not know what the truth is, we’re simply the messenger. Also, B.B.’s manager, LaVerne Toney, adamantly continues to deny B.B.’s daughters’ claims.

Tell us your thoughts on this ILOSM family? Do you think the daughter’s should keep fighting for their father? Or should they do as the Old School saying goes: Let go and let God?
