I have been vindicated,Leon Hendrix confirms in no uncertain terms my suspicions about Janie hendrix and his cousin Robert.They have been living like royality and quite purposely and vindictively shut Jimi's blood relations from any of the proceeds of Jimi's legacy and found it necessary to pay themselves sinfully exhorbitant salaries and have gone so far to take out money from company assets to build themselves their own ostentacious mansions.Leon admits that he had let his drug use intefere with his ability to make sound business decisions.He can understand somewhat why he was shut out but Jimi's other kin never did her any harm and treated her like family until a few months before the death of Jimi's father when she basically shut out his family from seeing him.

Leon must have a big heart because in the credits he thanks Janie and Robert for keeping Jimi'smusic alive and tells them he still loves them and still views Janie as his little sister.
Even though Leon still loves her,I won't be buying anything to do with Jimi that sends one cent her way.

Just for legal reasons, you might want to pepper that post with the phrase "In my opinion".

Bu yeah, I'd pretty much come to this conclusion about the Hendrix camp after the Gibson Jimi Hendrix Str*tocaster debacle.

I'm not at all surprised by finding out what I had a gut feeling about all along,I'm just glad that Leon confirms my suspicions and even brought forth some of her actions that I could never imagine that she would be so cold and heartless to carry out.I doubt if I left myself open for legal actions because I was only recounting Leon's take on things. You can't charge someone with slander or liable if they're telling the truth no matter how damning it may be.
