“I am even more determined to finish the documentary that my son and I are producing” – Amos he told People. “It will shed light on the real truth about the motives of those who wrote the false story about me. My name is John Amos and honestly, this mess is what makes James Evans stay.

The Los Angeles Police Department has launched an investigation into allegations of elder abuse made by Amos’ daughter, Shannon. She claimed that her brother Kelly “KC” did not adequately meet their father’s health care needs.

Shannon shared her frustration with police’s decision Monday to close the case due to lack of evidence.

“While I appreciate the efforts of the LAPD in my father’s case, I am disappointed in their conclusions as no one in my family has seen or spoken to my father since July 2023, when KC Amos, Eugene Brummet and Belinda Foster removed him from the hospital medical facility against doctors’ recommendations,” she said in a statement. “We continue to receive assistance from healthcare providers, health care professionals and others who provide evidence that raises concerns about his well-being and whether he is receiving the care his health requires.”

Amos denied Shannon’s initials allegations that in June 2023 he became a victim of elder abuse. His daughter soon filed a complaint with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and started a GoFundMe campaign to increase “care expenses” for her father. At her father’s request, Shannon deleted the page, which had raised over $13,000 at the time.

In March, the 84-year-old actor denied his daughter’s new allegations of neglect. He called Shannon’s claims “false and undeserved” and described KC as a “caring, caring man who respects me.”

Amos and his director son are collaborating on the upcoming live-action film “Roots.” documentarieswhich can focus on his life and the longevity of his five-decade acting profession.

“The real truth will soon come out and you will hear it from me,” Amos continued. “Believe it.”

Amos played an important role in film and television throughout his life. His extensive acting resume includes roles in “Two and a Half Men,” “Coming to America,” “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” and other projects.
