There is talk that James Brown may have been poisoned:

“Late soul legend JAMES BROWN was poisoned by thieves intent on digging up the fortune he’d buried on his South Carolina estate, according to a stunning new expose. Former business associates and backing singers insist the Godfather Of Soul’s remains should be exhumed for toxicology tests after hearing rumors he was poisoned before his death on Christmas Day (25Dec) 2006.

Their claims have been backed up by Brown’s widow Tomi Rae Hynie, but she refuses to go on record about the crime fearing the thieves will turn on her. In a Globe article about the alleged crime, Hynie says, ‘I can’t comment on that right now for the safety of myself and my son.’”

This ish sounds mighty questionable. Officials better keep their eye on that interrupted widow of his – she’s prime suspect material.
