I Had a Dream [Trust Fund]: King Kids Fight Over MLK Estate

The family of Martin Luther King are at it again. The siblings are in court alleging misrepresentation and self-dealing in the handling of the MLK estate. Bernice King and Martin Luther King III are accusing Dexter King of effectively transferring “substantial funds” from Bank of America to accounts he controls.

Dexter, 47, is president of the Estate of Martin Luther King Jr. corporation, and Bernice and Martin Jr. are shareholders. The family business is in disarray due to mismanagement and allegations of self-dealing.

As their father proclaimed:

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

It is the character issue that the family is currently working on.
