More Claims Involving Stevie’s Son
The film also made claims about Stevie’s son, who reportedly has learning disabilities. Additionally, Alpha’s video footage showed Stevie’s late Mother’s now dilapidated home. To add insult to injury, the film also made claims that Stevie, “possibly engaged in an incestuous relationship,” according to Stevie’s attorney.
Stevie Wonder’s Reaction To The Claims
Stevie was deeply hurt by the accusations being made in the extortion plot and film, according to Detective Benjamin:
Benjamin, who interviewed Wonder for the case, said the singer was hurt by Walker’s accusations and said they were untrue. She said Wonder stated that paying his cousin money would be the only way to keep it from being sold to a news outlet and embarrassing him and his family.
“He explained that when something like this is released to the media, it is presumed to be true,” Benjamin said.
Stevie’s attorney, William Briggs II also state that although Stevie watched most of the film at that time, he could not go any further, once footage of his son- who has mental disabilities- was shown.
