Roxie Washington, the mother of Floyd’s only daughter Gianna, announced she’d hired a team of lawyers to go after Ye, his business partners, and his associates.
They are suing for harassment, misappropriation, defamation, and infliction of emotional distress.
The family is seeking $250 million in damages.
The letter reads, in part, “Mr. Floyd’s cause of death is well-settled through evidence presented in courts of law during the criminal and civil trials that were the result of his untimely and horrific death. Nevertheless, you have maliciously made statements that are inaccurate and unfounded, causing damage to Mr. Floyd’s estate and his family.”
Kanye’s taken a ton of heat for comments he made on an episode of “Drink Champs.”
