From People

K.C. is pushing back against his sister's actions, telling PEOPLE exclusively that his father lived a happy life up until his death.

"My dad wanted to go to Centinela because he trusted them and they were the nearest hospital," K.C. explains. "There was a discussion of contacting other family members and Pops said not to contact anyone and I honored his request."

"Let me be clear and transparent. There has been no physical, financial, emotional, psychological elder abuse or neglect committed against my father by me, Gene Brummett or Belinda Foster," he continues. "This has been documented by an independent investigation by Homeland Security Services, Inc, Adult Protective Services, and other law enforcement agencies. The reality is that he passed of natural causes at the age of 84 years old. Stop making it more than what it is."

K.C.’s defense investigator and Vice President of Operations at Homeland Security Services, Inc., Kevin Faler, mirrors K.C.'s sentiments in a statement to PEOPLE, saying that he has been working on K.C.'s behalf on “a comprehensive two-year investigation into allegations of both criminal and civil wrongdoing” for two years.

“This investigation encompasses a detailed examination of financial discrepancies, including the trail of John Amos’ missing money and stolen belongings valued in the millions of dollars in Colorado, as well as connected incidents in Memphis, New Jersey, and Los Angeles,” Faler says, adding, “There is no merit to the criminal charges levied against KC Amos in the State of New Jersey as any and all charges have been dismissed.”

“The current allegations regarding foul play and elder abuse are frivolous,” he maintains. "John Amos was happy working and spending time with [K.C., Gene and Belinda] writing, producing, and praying with them as a family and as his team. John passed from natural causes at the age of 84 years old. There was no foul play.”

Moreover, Faler insists that Belinda Foster, who was John’s assistant for more than 30 years, “told me Belinda was more of a daughter to him than his own biological daughter.”

“Our legal defense team consisting of KC's attorney and John Amos psychologist, investigators, publicist, and others are and will continue to work closely with law enforcement and state prosecutors in relation to our own investigation," Faler concludes. “We remain steadfast in our commitment to presenting the truth. The results of this investigation, when appropriate, will be shared with the relevant authorities and public entities. Homeland Security Services, Inc. is dedicated to upholding justice, protecting legacies, and supporting the Amos family in resolving these disputes honorably.”
