King Family Saga
The King Family (MLK, III & Bernice against brother Dexter) dispute over the MLK estate has brought a heavy hitter to the forefront in the form of Cochran Law Firm co-founder (along with late Johnnie Cochran), Attorney Jock Smith. His credentials are incredible - having won $1.6 Billion in insurance fraud case and $700 million environmental against Monsanto for Alabama residents. What's general consensus on how Dexter King will fare & thoughts on Smith?

I don't care. I don't know Dexter King. |

I've gotta agree with this.
I fail to see the relevance of the remaining King family members to our city or society at large. Any good that they do (is there any?) is by far outweighed by their incessant infighting and bickering. |

They've been riding on their father's name and nothing more for years. Do they even have real jobs? Let them fight it out with each other and the strongest will survive and get his/her millions from a book deal out of it later.

The MLK sibling drama is like any typical American family drama play out across U.S. (case in point-- James Brown's children) to see which family member controls the decease's estate and money.

Yawn on this as newsworthy. MLK Jr. must be turning in his grave. Their mother would have done them all a favor if she had left the legacy to charity, and made her kids earn their way in the world.
