A lawsuit against Bobbi Kristina Brown’s partner, Nick Gordon, has been amended to include a wrongful death accusation. The document, filed by the administrator of her estate, alleges Mr Gordon “gave Bobbi Kristina a toxic cocktail, rendering her unconscious, and then put her face down in a tub of cold water”. It is also claimed the pair had a loud argument before the incident, in which he called the 22-year-old a “whore” and a “bitch”. Bobbi Kristina was found unresponsive in a bathtub at her Georgia home at the end of January, and spent six months in a medically induced coma after suffering irreversible brain damage.
Gordon gave Bobbi Kristina a toxic cocktail rendering her unconscious and then put her face down in a tub of cold water, causing her to suffer brain damage.
A claim in the amended lawsuit
She never regained consciousness and had been breathing with the aid of a ventilator before she died at a Georgia hospice on 27 July. Mr Gordon was already facing a $10m lawsuit, filed in June, where he was accused of causing life-threatening injuries and stealing from her bank account while she was in the coma. That document had claimed she was found “with her mouth swollen and a tooth knocked out” back in January. No one has been criminally charged in the case – but in February, Mr Gordon was barred by the family from visiting Bobbi Kristina in hospital.
