John Amos’ Family Fears Actor Was ‘Cremated To Avoid Any Potential Investigation’ Into His Death

Loved ones of John Amos have several questions about his passing.

Quick recap: On Tuesday (Oct. 1) John Amos’ son and caretaker K.C. Amos shared in a statement that the Emmy Award nominee died back in August. This morning, John Amos’ daughter, Shannon Amos, said that she and others in her family had no clue that her father was deceased. Then moments ago news broke that the cause of death was congestive heart failure. John’s death certificate, first obtained by TMZ, also revealed that he was cremated 9 days after he passed away and no autopsy was performed.

A lengthy recently posted statement from family and friends of John has raised questions about his death. In part, the statement read,

“We fear he was likely cremated to avoid any potential investigation into the conditions surrounding his final days. Over the past year, John Amos was isolated from his family and close friends by Kelly “KC” Amos, Eugene Brummet and Belinda Foster. Despite our repeated attempts to maintain contact, KC prevented access to him, controlled and monitored his calls.”

It continued,

“Our father suffered from dementia, and KC often gave John verbal prompts to create a narrative on social media that was not reflective of the truth. We were deeply concerned that our father may have been neglected and isolated during his final days as we recieved photos from concerned neighbors and a medical professional.”

And added,

“The family also questions why no medical professionals, coroner, or authorities informed us of his passing, and why KC did not notify any family member directly. We believe there are critical questions that need answers, especially since we believe KC likely made the decision to have John Amos cremated without the family’s knowledge.”

At the end of the statement, the family noted that they “refuse to rule out the possibility of foul play.”
