FULTON COUNTY, Ga. (USA Today) – A lawsuit filed by Bobbi Kristina Brown’s conservator accuses Nick Gordon of abuse and says 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.
