Actor John Amos’ son arrested for allegedly threatening his sister with a gun

Son of “Good Times” star John Amos has been arrested for allegedly sending threatening texts, including images of guns to his sister in what seems to be the latest chapter of the family war over the actor’s health.

K.C., was arrested last weekend after his sister, Shannon, claimed he sent her a slew of concerning texts, which she says made her fear for her life.

TMZ reported that Shannon told West Orange, NJ police that her brother told her about his supposed gang affiliations, showing a handgun and a rifle. She claims he also sent her videos of him firing a handgun in an open field, and wrote, “Gonna sleep much better tonight big sis.”

Robert Florida, a spokesperson for the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office also disclosed that Shannon said K.C. suffers from bipolar disorder which has led him to believe she hired someone to kill him, and now she’s worried he might retaliate.

K.C.’s been posting cryptic messages on his socials for a while, one on his TikTok less than a week ago says, “Imagine calling the police #Swatting your own brother 24 times over the last 15 years & not one arrest.”

This is coming after Shannon started a GoFundMe last month for her father John, claiming he’s been the victim of elder abuse.
