Was James Brown Murdered?

The official cause of Godfather of Soul James Brown's 2006 death has been listed as congestive heart failure, but what if that wasn't the case? A three-part CNN series suggests that Brown might have actually been murdered. The news comes via Jacquelyn Hollander, who claims that Brown raped her in 1988. While she was compiling evidence against Brown and his associates, she came across evidence that his third wife, Adrienne Brown, might have been killed. The rabbit hole got even deeper, though, when it was uncovered that many of James Brown's associates believe that foul play was involved in the music legend's death — including his attending physician Dr. Marvin Crawford. "He was a patient I would never have predicted would have coded," he told CNN. "But he died that night, and I did raise that question: What went wrong in that room?" The bizarre circumstances have several in his camp calling for the legend's body to be exhumed and a full investigation into his death to be made. #Whodunnit
