    ODB’s mother, Cherry Jones is alleging that the Florida based company AGU exploited her dead son, reports FemaleFirst.

    Cheery Jones and ODB’s manager, Jared Weisfeld have filed a $1.8 million lawsuit against AGU, claiming that they failed to fulfil deals for a album and DVD, whilst continuing to use ODB’s name to attract investors.

    ODB aka Russell Jones was a founding member of The Wu-Tang Clan, he died in November 2004 after collapsing in a Manhattan recording studio, autopsy reports showed that he had accidentally overdosed on cocaine and prescription pain killers. He had a history of drug addiction.

    Weisfeld's attorney Mark Frey has said: "We're just saddened and shocked that AGU would do this, given what everyone had been through with Dirty's death."
