Jodi Kavney, the mother of XXXTENTACION’s half brother Corey Pack, has sued the late rapper’s mother Cleopatra Bernard on behalf of her son. According to docu- ments, Pack’s mother has ac- cused Bernard of cutting out X’s half brother from funds in the slain artist’s trust.

Cleopatra has not only paid Corey’s living expenses and purchased him a car, but she has gifted to him and his mother, Jodi Kavney, a mortgage free home and paid the current year’s real estate taxes.
