The Los Angeles Police Department might have closed its investigation into claims of elder abuse against Good Times actor John Amos, but the star’s daughter is not letting the issue go away. Shannon Amos and her management team sent a statement to TV Insider on Monday, April 8, noting that she is dissatisfied with the results of the investigation. This comes after the LAPD said that police found no evidence that John was the victim of elder abuse. “While I acknowledge the efforts of the LAPD on my father’s case, I am disappointed with their conclusion since no one from my family has seen or spoken to my father since July 2023, when K.C. Amos [Shannon’s brother], Eugene Brummet, and Belinda Foster removed him from a medical facility against doctors’ orders,” Shannon said. “We continue to receive outreach from care providers, medical professionals, and others with evidence that raises...

John Amos is not the victim of elder abuse, according to a police investigation that found no proof to substantiate the claims made by the actor’s daughter, Shannon Amos. According to TMZ, the Los Angeles Police Department spoke to parties on both sides of the matter and officially closed the investigation. It was said that police found no wrongdoing and that there was not enough evidence to bring charges against anyone. The latest news comes after Shannon opened a GoFundMe page for her father last June, when he was 83, claiming he was a victim of “elderly abuse.” However, the page was later taken down after John and his son, K.C. Amos, said the claims were false and that Shannon was the one inflicting the abuse. At the time, Shannon claimed she’d contacted the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and alleged that her father was not receiving proper care at an intensive care unit.

John Amos is hoping to put the past behind him when it comes to recent family drama, noting that “all families go through trials and tribulations of some sort.” The Good Times star and his filmmaker son, K.C. Amos, recently spoke with People about their family struggles; earlier this year, the legendary actor accused his daughter, Shannon Amos, of “elderly abuse,” something which Shannon denied. “It is his sibling, that is my daughter, my first child. I love her. K.C. loves his sister. We just have, I guess, what might be best described in the tabloids is an acrimonious relationship, but everything heals in time, and the love is still there,” John told the publication. Back in June, Shannon started a GoFundMe page for her father, claiming he was a victim of “elderly abuse.” However, the page was later taken down after John and K.C. said the claims...
