KNOXVILLE (WATE) - The Tennessee Bureau of
Investigation continues its probe of what it describes as a suspicious death at
Brakebill Nursing Home.
So far TBI has released little information about the
death or the investigation.
6 News has uncovered paperwork that's been
filed in court by one owner Jack Brakebill, against the other owner, Lynn
Brakebill, asking to have her removed as a director of the corporation.
The
petition alleges she suffers from manic depression and "places herself and
others in substantial likelihood of bodily harm and is reckless with her
assets."
6 News contacted attorneys on both sides for comment, but no response
from either side.
