George Floyd<\/strong><\/a>‘s family wants answers about what happened to the millions raised in his name after his death … and they’re demanding his brother open the books.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

A Houston-based lawyer sent Philonise Floyd<\/strong> a letter on behalf of 3 other family members — sisters Zsazsa <\/strong>and LaTonya, <\/strong>and brother Rodney Floyd<\/strong> — requesting a complete accounting of the George Floyd Memorial GoFundMe campaign.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

The August 11 letter, obtained by TMZ, says the fundraiser collected about $19 million. The family members maintain they’re George’s heirs and are entitled to a portion of the money … but claim they haven’t received anything.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n


\n<\/p>\n

\n

They’re requesting all GoFundMe reports, statements, and transaction histories … along with tax filings and other financial records connected to the campaign.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

The letter gave Philonise 20 days from receipt to turn over the documents, with the family’s attorney saying she hoped the matter could be settled amicably.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

The family members say they’ve repeatedly requested records and an explanation of how the money was handled and distributed, but haven’t gotten the documentation.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

They also tell TMZ … they contacted attorney Ben Crump<\/strong><\/a> seeking answers and received no response.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

Rodney tells TMZ, “We want to see the records, understand how decisions were made, and make sure the family\u2019s questions are answered. We\u2019re speaking up because transparency matters.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

As TMZ previously reported, the fundraiser had already pulled in nearly $13 million from almost 500,000 donations just over a week after it launched, setting a GoFundMe record<\/strong><\/a> at the time.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

\n

Philonise said the money would cover funeral and burial expenses, counseling, travel connected to court proceedings, and other family needs.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

He also said a portion would go to George’s estate to support his children and their education.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
