Did Nick Gordon Try to Save Bobbie Kristina Before Her Death? His Attorney Claims He Did

In January 2015, Whitney Houston's daughter, Bobbi Kristina Brown, was found unresponsive in the bathtub in her home and died later that summer. Many have questioned if Brown's boyfriend, Nick Gordon, was involved in her untimely death. On Tuesday (March 8), Gordon's attorneys released a statement claiming their client was innocent of the allegations and even attempted to save Brown's life.

Although the autopsy report revealed Bobbi Kristina died of water immersion and drug intoxication, her court appointed conservator, Bedelia Hargrove, alleged Gordon injected her with a "toxic mixture." She filed a wrongful death lawsuit, placing all the blame on him. Bobbi Kristina's father, Bobby Brown, also accused Gordon of harming his daughter.

Inside the statement, Gordon's attorneys, Jose Baez and Joe S. Habachy, detail his emotional state since Bobbi Kristina's death and shoot down Fulton County District Attorney's office's murder accusations. There is currently no concrete evidence linking Gordon to the incident. They believe Brown's death to be nothing more than an unfortunate accident.

"Nick Gordon's life has been tumultuous since January of 2015 when he lost the love of his life," Baez and Habachy said, according to People. "On top of being prohibited from visiting Bobbi Kristina at the hospital for the last six months of her life, Nick has been publicly humiliated for more than a year."

Although Superior Court Judge Henry Newkirk repeatedly told The Fulton County District they had more than enough time (13 months) to provide any evidence connecting Gordon to Bobbi Kristina's death, they still have plans to further their investigation. Gordon's attorneys believe they are simply encouraging media outlets to slander their clients name.

Baez and Habachy urge the District Attorney's office to publicly pronounce Bobbie Kristina's death as an accident or "even a suicide." They're looking to eliminate any suspicions of foul play or murder. Further more, his attorneys want the public to allow Gordon to live his life in peace as he continues to mourn.

"The truth is that Nick tried to save Bobbi Kristina's life," Gordon's attorneys said. "The truth is that Nick cooperated with law enforcement since day one. The truth is that no one loved Bobbi Kristina more than Nick and no one has suffered more as a result of her death than Nick."

Gordon has continuously denied the murder allegations, along with any involvement in her death.
