‘Take off the aluminum foil hat’

Priscilla Presley, the ex-wife of late rock-and-roll legend Elvis Presley, is battling accusations that she had some involvement in his passing.

A $50 million lawsuit, filed by Presley’s former business partners Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko, was amended on Friday, “alleging that she was involved in Elvis’ death,” according to Fox News.

“In the amended lawsuit obtained by Fox News Digital, Kruse and Fialko allege Priscilla wasn’t happy with her divorce settlement from Elvis,” the outlet wrote.

“Despite enriching herself and extorting millions of dollars from Elvis, she then placed a lien on Graceland on or around April 29, 1977, in the amount of $494,024.49, adding pressure to Elvis less than four months before he died,” the lawsuit accuses, going on to claim that the move “exerted undue pressure” on the artist and ultimately pushed “him to his death.”

Marty Singer, Priscilla Presley’s attorney, flatly denied any claims that his client had a hand in her late ex-husband’s passing, likening the allegations to other unproven conspiracy theories.

“Priscilla did not have anything to do with the assassination of JFK, she did not cover up Area 51, she did not fake the moon landing, and she is not secretly keeping Bigfoot locked in a cabin in Canada. Take off the aluminum foil hat and face reality,” Singer scoffed. “This lawsuit concerns Ms. Presley’s claims against Ms. Kruse (and her co-conspirators) in which she alleges that Ms. Kruse engaged in a relentless and calculated campaign of elder abuse and fraud in order to take control of Ms. Presley’s finances for her own benefit. Ms. Kruse’s allegations are absurd and despicable, but unfortunately, are not surprising. Ms. Presley looks forward to holding Ms. Kruse and her co-conspirators liable for their wrongful acts,”

Jordan Matthews of Holtz Matthews LLP, who is representing Kruse and Fialko in the matter, shot back with a statement of his own.

“Apparently, Ms. Presley’s defense is to list off nonsense hyperbolic statements that have no substance. Moreover, the fact that Ms. Presley chooses to make heartless and ridiculous statements about Area 51 and Bigfoot, making a mockery of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll’s death and his only daughter’s death, is shameful, disappointing and unforgivable. The documents are in black and white and speak volumes. To date, Ms. Presley has presented zero evidence in support of her salacious claims, and we intend to hold her accountable for her reckless behavior.”

The pair claim that Presley is a “calculated sociopath and master of deception, who has lived off of and exploited the ‘Presley’ name for her own personal gain” and a “pit viper willing to prey on her own family.”
