A Georgia judge has found Nick Gordon legally responsible for the death of Bobbi Kristina Brown.
After failing to appear in court for the second time, Fulton County Superior Court Judge T. Jackson Bedford ruled that Nick Gordon is “civilly liable” for the death of his former girlfriend, Bobbi Kristina Brown. As a result, Gordon was found in contempt of the order and the judgment was made “by default.”
In a press conference, Brown’s estate attorney R. David Ware, stated the following, “In court today, we finally finished a long journey for justice for Bobbi Kristina Brown. The court agrees with us, by striking Mr. Gordon’s answer that he is legally responsible for her death. The only thing left to prove is the value of her life. We intend to do that.”
Bobby Brown also expressed how excited he was to be one step closer to justice, stating, “I am pleased with the outcome of today’s court proceedings. All I ever wanted was answers relating to who and what caused my daughter’s death. Today’s judgment tells me it was Nick Gordon. Now I need to process all the emotions I have and lean on God to get me and my family through this.”
The court ordered a jury trial to determine damages in the case.
